I tend to agree with this lawsuit. I've only been to three or four PETCO stores, all in California and they all seem pretty gross.

Our local one is probably the worst because its an older store. The shelves are almost ALWAYS dusty and every time I go get the cat's Royal Canin there are a ton of bags with holes in them. I'm sure they have rats in there...and not they kind they want to sell...

When we get our frozen fish food, it seems like its been refrozen...which is gross! No wonder we've lost four fish in the last month!

I would also tend to agree that they over charge. I'm with Aly...I compare the prices of food, litter and toys between them and PetSmart. Petco is always more expensive and they tend to have a crappy selection.

Example: Fresh Step, 40 (? or 30) lb litter tub is $9.99 at PetSmart and $12.99 at PetCo. I can get it for $10.99 at Target!

The ONLY reason I buy the Royal Canin at Petco is because they have that buy 10, get 1 free thing. My cats have been on Royal Canin for almost a year and I haven't gotten 1 free bag yet!! I show my card every time too. With 8 cats, I go through a 7lb bag each week...

Petsmart has a card??? I need to check that out!
