Hi I just found a new Pet store in Westford. They are called "PETS
PETS PETS" and are located at the corner of RTE. 110 and RTE.225.
They moved there last Saturday from Hampton Falls N.H.
They carry Birds, Fish and Dogs and a full line of pet supplies.
For Birds they had some canaries, budgies, finches, cockatiels,
one blue front amazon($675) and one formerly abused umbrella
cockatoo($400). The Cockatoo has one eye almost closed as a result
of an injury, but otherwise seemed to be a beautiful bird. The owner
might take less as he got him from an animal rescue league.
The owner seemed very freindly and said he is a member of BOAF.

Doug - Is that store in one of those "malls" - such as Olde Boston
Square? I'd like to go on my lunch hour sometime this week.
Thanx, Linda

We stopped by on Sunday. It is in the vicinity of the Westford
Regency Hotel, near the Digital facility at the intersection of
495 and Rt 225/110, yes, in a small mall.
He had the one umbrella cockatoo, a few cockatiels and budgies, along
with one very nice Amazon parrot out on a stand...and two puppies
in a display cage right next to the front door, getting blown by a bad
draft everytime someone went in or out. Maybe puppies are not bothered
by drafts the way birds are? Anyway, I have to assume/hope that the puppy
situation was only temporary (we were there for about ten minutes).
The owner seemed very nice. He's only been there about a week.

Doug,
Do you happen to know the owner's name? I belong to BOAF and am
curious as to who they are. I'll have to stop by on my way home
one day.
Thanks for the info.
Regards,
Denise
P.S. Hope all of your birds are doing well.

We also stopped by PETS PETS PETS this past weekend and were very inmpressed. We saw the abused Cockatoo, and it turns out that someone had put a deposit on a cage with the intent of buying this abused bird. According to the owner, the customber put down a $50 deposit, took the cage agreeing to pay $50 per week until paid, and they haven't seen them since. So they got a beautiful cage for $50, and the poor COCKATOO is still left in the store. (Which may be a blessing in disquise, because it doesn't sound like the deal would have worked out well, anyway.) The owners were extremenly friendly, and we chatted with them for quite some time. They are visited by the ASPCA at least twice per month and have had no problems with that. They are obviously animal lovers of all kinds, as they own many of their own. They had their pet ENGLISH BULLDOG at the store, and he was very friendly also. Prices are average, and cages were very clean and neat. In reading a previous note, it was mentioned that the puppies and/or birds were getting a draft when the door opened. The birds have been moved to the other side of the store away from any drafts. They had no puppies at the time we were there, so hopefully, this has chnged also. Good experience from our perspective. Luanne Buccieri | |||||
