Fin & Feather Pet Center, Inc. 5208 Lakeside Avenue, Richmond, VA 23228

"I do not recommend going to this place, because they do not know how to care for animals. This picture I posted in here is a tree boa with shed stuck all over its body which is not healthy. Also I got a bearded dragon from this place maybe 1 year ago and they don’t even know what kind it is or size but last night my bearded dragon died out of no where and they don’t tell you how to care for them when you buy a animal. So this place is a scam and murderers"

"Love this place! They have a great store, and everything is almost always in stock. I don't have a hard time finding anything. Very helpful and knowledgeable staff!! Great selection of fish and plants for aquariums. Fantastic selection of small animal foods and accessories. Great pet store without the pet chain nonsense."

"Most of the reptile enclosures had dirty or no water. Anoles were dead in the water bowl and skinny starving. Enclosures were dirty and not taken care of at all. Smelled horrible. Many baby ball pythons in a tank with hardly any water and improper bedding and all looked stressed. When we informed an employee about this they just brushed it off and said ‘oh awesome’ and went back to talking with another employee. Employees do not care for the animals and were rude. The store does have a good selection of products and supplies and otherwise is a good store, but animal neglect ruins it all."

"What a fantastic local pet store! Been the staple of Richmond for as long as I can remember. Their selection of more exotic type animals is pretty impressive. Lots of pretty cool snakes, lizards, tarantulas, scorpions, and even other types of insects. Have a pretty good sized bird room always have either guinea pigs or rabbits out front. And one of the better selection of fresh and salt water fish in the area. I stopped in usually once a week, maybe once every other week to grab feeder Guppies and minnows for our turtle. Usually will get a package of mealworms as well. They have a huge selection of premium dog and cat food. Lots of toys for your animals and goodies. They carry pretty much any type of food selection you need for almost any animal. The staff is always very helpful. Pretty easy location to get to. If you need something special they can't even do special orders as well. Pretty soon we'll be buying a frog and I know we'll be getting it from Fin and feather. It's very easy to forget that we have a local pet store, my kids always want to go it's like going to a mini Zoo. Take the time and go check them out you won't be at disappointed."
