In Reply to: The issue of Petco.......a suggestion....also to people who read here but don't post..... posted by Harry's Dad on January 02, 2000 at 05:25:40:

: To: Everyone,

: I seriously believe the people here CAN make a
difference and I would suggest ALL of us to write
letters to every store that has a seriously
problem. If we can post the address so everyone
can send a letter, then we can show our numbers to
these uncaring people. National chain stores,
should also get a "cc" copy sent to their corp.
office so they can know about the local chain
store and the problems it has. BUT PLEASE, let's
not get carried away with too much anger in these
letters. We want them to take notice of the
numbers and realize that if they don't do
something, that the word of mouth (us on the
internet) will hurt their business.
: I would also suggest, someone here who has the
skill to write a professional letter,do so and
make a half dozen generic ones (different wording
for each) and then have someone post them on a
website so any of us can copy them to send to
these stores.
: We CAN make a difference......let's show them we
won't stand for how they are caring for the
reptiles.
: I would say this much also, don't post minor
problems with a pet store, such as a empty bowl of
water in cage, things like that. We need to get
the worst ones first such as Wrong diet, hot
rocks, no UVB, seriously sick igs, etc... One day
issues, such as the water is not something you
want to write these letters about....long term
issues are what we need to attack.
: I know there is a large number of people who
visit this site and only read the post and don't
post any messages......to these people.....I AM
ASKING YOU to join in on the fight for helping
iguanas nationally....please...help make a
difference. If you don't believe you have alot of
knowledge about iguanas but just like to read the
postings here, that doesn't make a difference on
sending a letter showing your concern to
petstores. We need everyones help
here.....numbers DO make a difference!!
: I will ask LM to write at least one letter and
possibly more if I ask her nicely ( lol ) and I
will post them on a web page. If anyone else
would like to send me a copy of a letter they feel
is professional, please do so and I'll get them up
on the site and post the link to it, for everyone.
