Petsmart return policy on animals?

Question

sister bought a kitten. it has bacteria in it. it's making all her other cats sick. took it to the vet to confirm. she doesn't have her receipt. will they accept her return? It's been like a month or so

Answer 1

omg how could you return an animal  

Answer 2

Petsmart does not sell dogs and cats. They sell only small animals, birds and reptiles.

Petsmart helps local rescue groups and often holds adoption events for them. Many locations even have an in store adoption center. Petsmart is in no way responsible for your kitten.

When the kitten was adopted from the third party rescue group, a contract/ adoption agreement was signed. Read it. The group will most likely take the kitten back but they are unlikely to return your money for it. They may be willing to cover your vet expenses.  

Answer 3

I'm sorry but when you adopt or buy a kitten, you are accepting responsibility for the care of the animal.  That means that you should be asking the vet how to treat the problems and getting the kitten the medication it needs.

Animals are for life, not just till they get ill or you become sick of them.

Answer 4

Ask www.google.com

Answer 5

you disgust me. youre acting like the cat is a pair of shoes. you can treat the cats. does she even want to return it?!  

Answer 6

Did she buy it or adopt it? I've never heard of Petsmart selling animals. If you adopted the cat yes they will probably take it back but I doubt you'll get money back because it's a non-profit organization. You can't really return animals anyway... you have to give it up for adoption. But I don't see why you can't get a medication for it. I'm sure it just needs regular shots and maybe antibiotics if it's sick.

Answer 7

Petsmart use to sell animals before PETA became involved and brought into the public eye the fact that they purchased their animals from puppy\cat mills.  They NO LONGER sell animals *****YES*****.

At this point I would get your cat to the vet asap (like yesterday) and get it treated.

It saddens me that people like you are so uneducated in cats.  You purchase a cat like you would a laptop, except that you would do more due diligence with the laptop.

You disgust and sicken me.  I would take it to the nearest vet and get it rehomed.  And sorry sucker but you'll have to eat what you paid.

If you had been more responsible and really cared about the animal, you would have recognized that it was not that healthy, and in turn called the ASPCA.

You don't deserve this poor life that you purchased.  Do the right thing and get it the medical help it deserves.

AND DON'T GET ANY MORE ANIMALS.

Answer 8

oh poor kitten, the kitten will probably be brought back to the shelter it came from and be put to sleep.  I'm in tears just thinking about it.  and to think it's last few days have not been pleasant at all.

Answer 9

I purchased a cat from there and they told me you were not able to return to them, but you would have to take to the local shelter.  can't the cat get better?  I would think the shelter who gave the cat to Petsmart, at least that is how our Petsmart works, they would give you meds for free for all the cats.  Petsmart should  answer that question.  good luck

Answer 10

Get this kitten treated, you shouldn't just return it.  It's like saying you want to go return your baby back to the adoption agency! CRUELLL
