I've been there once or twice and everyone giving bad reviews are idiots. Animals smell, it's true. That's why this shop smells. Have you seen how small it is? Of course the smell is going to seem...

I will never enter this store again. In fact I might even deliberately walk on the opposite side of the street the next time I am in the area. The owner of this store needs to think long and hard...

Unlike previous reviewers, I was not overwhelmed by the smell in here. It just smelled like a pet store to me, which meant it smelled like animals. Perhaps I'm impervious to such scents because I'm...
