Last week, a reporter from the Tribune Review called and had some questions regarding exotic pets. Turns out she was doing a sort of follow-up article to the incident recently in Connecticut with a pet chimpanzee.

Anyway, she wanted to talk about the values, appeal, and other aspect of certain exotic pets. I got to briefly express to her how our store focuses more on animals that stay manageable and don't get out of hand (ie: you'll never see us selling alligators!)

The next day, the reporter called back and asked if she could send a reporter out to take some photos. So some of our current residents got some shutter time.

Take a moment to head over to the Tribune Review's website and read the article: http://pittsburghlive.com/x/pittsburghtrib/news/tribpm/s_613748.html

We wanted to thank everyone for their continued support of the store and the enthusiastic welcome that we have received. At first, we thought we would buy everyone some cookies, but then we couldn't agree on what kind so we are just going with a sale instead!

If you come in between February 7th-21st, you will not only find a well restocked store with plenty of new and fun fish/reptiles but you'll also receive a 20% discount on them!

We are also having a HUGE tank sale! If you have been holding off on buying a new tank or feeding your fish table scraps, now is the time to stop in and do something about it!

We look forward to seeing everyone at Oddball!
