Does anyone know of a pet store in or around Geneva, one that actually sells pets (rather than just the accessories etc?). I've seen a shop called 'Cats & Dogs' but it appeared they only sold accessories for pets, there weren't actually any pets in the store I visited...
Cheers :-)

There used to be one in the Balexert mall (near the post), but no clue if it's still there.

There is a pet store in M-Prc in carouge, it all depends on what type of pet you are looking for.

Depends on what kind of pet you are looking for. According to the swsiss law cats and dogs are not allowed to be sold n pet stores. You can buy rodents from pet stores. There's one in planpalais, close to the coop city.
If you'd like a pet please adopt. For cats, rats, rabbits, guinea pigs, ferrets you can go to SOS Chats: www.sos-chats.ch at 2 chemin du plantin, 1217 Meyrin. They are open every Tusday and Saturday from 2.30 till 5.30 pm.
For dogs check out the SPCA.
Happy pet searching and please consider adopting instead of buying.

Thank you all very much for your replies. Ideally, I would have liked a dog - but, since I live in an apartment and work during days, not really pracitcal. I was thinking a bunny, or perhaps a kitten. I drove past SOS-Chats today, unfortunately it was not opening for an hour or so later, but I'll go back some other time to look into it further. Adopting a cat might be a good thing... I would have perhaps preferred a kitten more, but realise the advantages of adopting one a bit older, for myself and the cat. Thanks again! :-)

This is great! I volunteer at the shelter every weekend so if you need more information or help, don't hesitate to contact me. You can already go on their site to browse the cats available for adoption. There are so many (almost 100) so take your time. best, Cindy
