Little pet store in Fahaheel

There aren't any pet stores here that are the same as back home. Dogs and cats are sold separately from the fish and birds. Usually you can find all kinds of animals at Friday Market. But there not always in the best of conditions and recently the Ministry shut down the animal market. I found this little pet shop in Fahaheel Bizarre tucked away in one of the corners of the place. They have some fish, baby chicks, a few other little birds and this time baby turtles.

Of course my daughter fell in love with the baby turtles and so I had to buy the set up and a couple turtles. One of them would not eat and died, he's on ice now in the refrigerator, I'm going to take it and try to get a new one.

You won't find alot of dogs in shops as they are not favored because it's against the Muslim religion to have dogs in the house though most people have them outside or on their farms. You can also visit PAWS which is a shelter for rescued animals, unfortunately it's located in Wafra which is not easy to get to. I've been there a couple of times with my kids but for the life of me I can't remember how to get there now. It's a shame, my kids love to go there and walk the dogs and play with the cats.

They also have some aquariums and other small items.
