I purchased an eastern painted turtle hatchling from CBReptile, and the entire experience was…read moretop-notch. I had concerns about shipping a live animal, so I reached out before ordering. They responded quickly and reassured me that a biologist inspects each turtle before it's cleared for shipping. They also explained that the turtles are packed appropriately for the climate they're being sent to and shipped overnight to minimize stress. Shipping ended up being delayed by about three weeks, but CBReptile kept me updated with weekly emails, letting me know that their biologist hadn't approved the turtle for shipment yet. I really appreciated the transparency and the fact that they prioritized the turtle's health over speed. I'd much rather wait a bit longer if it means a healthier animal. When he finally arrived on 4/30, he was alert and active right out of the box. He's tiny, about a 1-inch shell, but full of energy, an excellent swimmer, and has a healthy appetite. He seems very happy and is thriving. Their communication was excellent throughout the entire process, and the care they show for the animals is obvious. I wouldn't hesitate to order from them again. Highly recommended.

BRAND NEW Petsmart opened in Somers Point's Acme shopping center today. It is located in the…read morestorefront that was previously Fashion Bug. It's clean, well organized, but a bit dark. There are no front windows on the building anymore. It's significantly smaller than what locals will likely be used to from Mays Landing's Petsmart, but for the convenience, I'll take it. There's still a good selection of all the necessities - food, toys, cleanliness products, etc. They included a grooming area, the kitty adoption area, and a training area, as well as the fish wall and some small critters. The training calendar is already chock full of classes and the grooming center was up and running today with customers. Speaking of the grooming center, I went in this morning and inquired about service for dogs who're difficult with nail cutting. I was told it was no problem. I went back tonight with my dog and had his nails cut by Kristen, who came back on the clock just to do it for me. SHE WAS WONDERFUL. I cannot stress this enough, she was absolutely excellent. My dog is crazy about his nails and she was knowledgeable, calm, friendly, and reassuring. He's got nice, shorter nails now and we're set to go back for further trimmings! GO SEE HER! The manager was also on hand, welcoming visitors, and while I didn't catch his name he was helpful and welcoming. Great addition to Somers Point's shopping center.
