PetSmart vs Petco

Just between the two of them, PetSmart or Petco?

Both are large chain stores known by most people with thousands of stores all over the place or at least in the U.S.
Both carry tens thousands pet products from various brands.
Both also have web sites selling pet products online with on sale events/coupon codes quite often.

From the points of price, product selection, customer service, etc. Which one is better in your opinion? Why?

Basically, that's like choosing whether you what to see animals decapitated, or burned at the stake. Story ram, but I do everything in my power to steer people away from both companies. In my opinion, spending money at either is almost equivalent to funding non-humanitarian animal abuse. So my option is 3, neither.

Sorry Fishbone, I know chain stores are usually terrible at taking care of their animals, and I have been avoid buying live animals from them because I know they are usually weak or sick. I see nothing wrong with buying their pet supplies.

Are you boycott their pet supplies too?
By the way, you can still vote for "they are the same" since you hate them equally.

We have shopped at PetSmart in the past, before we moved out to a more rural area. I don't think we've ever bought anything at Petco, though we've walked through a store or two before of theirs. We did adopt our current DSH cat from PetSmart about 6 years ago. He came from a private no-kill shelter though, and they just happened to be using PetSmart to showcase their kittens. I'd never buy an animal from a chain store's stock now that I'm older & wiser! We shop at a local Pet Supplies Plus for our cat food and litter now.
