			<description><![CDATA[ <a target="_blank" href="http://www.dvdshop88.com/index.php?target=products&amp;product_id=29821">Lost</a> is great storytelling, great writing, great acting,
and great television. Those that are irritated by the flashbacks are missing a lot of important layers to the story. Letting the characters reveal what
they&#39;re about in a flashback has much more dramatic punch, and makes them more believable, than just having them tell you, &quot;I was a paraplegic&quot;
or &quot;A psychic told me... ]]></description>

Beside the point - I was wondering if anyone was daring enough to go into a PetSmart or a petshop that treats the animals badly - and take a picture of what sounds to be the absoloutely appauling conditions they are kept in?<br><br>If this was done and the photo(s) emailed to me - it'd be great because then I would REALLY know what was going on - and prevent it from... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I don't know why exactly I went in. I think it was desperation because I was out of something. Well, never again!! They had an open top cage the size of a 2 x 2 C&amp;C with 2 small bunnies and 4 baby guinea pigs who were the size of a small rat. They were tiny! They were so scared that they were all huddle in an igloo together and wouldn't come out. The only pellets in the cage were rabbit pellets. Disgusting!!! Needless to say, I walked with nothing. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I went into this pet store for the first time to see what they had. Always looking for bedding resources. Anyway this pet store was crawling with roaches, they were everywhere. They had big bins of pet food ie: bird seed, rabbit pellets, and of course guinea pig pellets, dog treats etc... They were even in there. They breed guinea pigs and the males are kept on wire bottom cages. There are roaches in the cages as well. Is there anything I can do???? Who would I get in touch with regarding this?? ]]></description>

There are at least 7 pigs to an 8 square feet glass aquarium.

I did everything I was supposed to, but 1 week after I brought her home she died of URI. Now that I look back I did see some signs, but was not experienced enough to realize how serious it was.

Happy to say that the single female baby was born yesterday without any problems, but....they should have known! I've never owned a guinea pig before and I figured it out myself! ]]></description>
