OT regarding PetSmart vs PetCo: Is it PetSmart or Petco who promotes pets from animal shelters? A while back I stopped in one of the two.

They had a brochure which explained that this is a corporate wide thing they do, and they don't ever sell animals themselves. Tom

Edit - come to think of it, they probably make more selling lizards than I've made trading this week which is the big goose egg to use an animal term
