 If it doesn't come in a cage or a tank, you will find it on the displays. Aside from the animals available in the store, you can also buy numerous supplies here as well. From health to medicinal to necessities to toys and accessories, you can find anything your new pet may need or desire just by browsing the displays! No matter the pet, you are sure to find a variety of supplies to welcome yours into the family, or pamper an old friend.
Numerous different foods can be found, from sensitive stomach to diet, and regular. If you need shampoo of any kind, they can be found in this area, too. If your pet has fleas or ticks, you can take care of them with a bottle or two. Of course, if you just want your Crup to stop smelling like wet Cruppie, these shampoos can even take care of that! While you're here, check out some of the grooming supplies. Brushes of all shapes, sizes, and materials are available. Snag a smaller brush to fluff up your pygmy puff's fur, maybe a wiry brush to tame your Niffler's hair, and your cat or dog would probably greatly enjoy a dander-snagging brush to keep them smooth and sparkly.
Necessary supplies include such items as tanks, aquariums, cages, travel cages, and more. Make sure to buy everything you need; wouldn't you hate to get home and find out you forgot something? If you need to, talk to the shop keeper to make sure you're buying the appropriate size and type of cage for your new pet. Some animals need much larger environments and some do not do well in certain types of cages.
If toys and accessories are what your pet is desiring, you'll find a plethora! Collars and leashes are just the tip of the iceberg. Your pet can be the most stylish if you pick up some nifty outfits for them. Mix and match the pieces to create a fashionable wardrobe! Booties are available for when the weather becomes too cold for your pets to bear it. All kinds of toys can be found here - from balls to squeaky toys, fake mice, feathers, dangly toys, shiny flashy toys... Your pet will never be bored with this selection.
When you've found the creature you've been looking for, please make your way to the counter for purchase!
If you are looking for animals, please see our creatures room.

Gesturing towards the treat boxes he asked "Which treats do most cats like?"

Goodness, she wasn't expecting to run into anyone today. It was still so early in the Summer. Although, Medea was thankful for it now. He'd just pointed out the cat treats. The shelf behind her. "Oh, it really does depend on the cat. Neither one is most popular among them."
Picking up the box of treats she wanted, she jokingly stared suspiciously at Leo. "Whyyy? You thinking of getting a pet?"

Picking up the box of treats she wanted, she jokingly stared suspiciously at Leo. "Whyyy? You thinking of getting a pet?" There were so many treats for all types of pets and creatures in general that just eyeing all off the filled shelves made his head want to spin. Turning around to see what Medea was getting Leo chose a tuna and salmon treat box with hesitation from the same shelf. "So I could possibly buy something which the cat might dislike?"
Weighing the treat box in his left hand Leo nodded seriously. "Actually, yes I was planning to by a cat today if the shopkeeper has any in the store."

"You von't know vot they like until you experiment." Who knows, they may like the treats on the first try. Or won't like any of them at all. Oooh! He was thinking of getting a cat! How exciting.
"Aww, a library kitty. Going to be the most popular. I think they're..." Standing on her tippy toes, which didn't do much help to try and look over the shelves, she had to go by memory on this place. She pointed out the opposite corner of the shop. "...right over there? At least from vot I remember." | |

She pointed out the opposite corner of the shop. "...right over there? At least from vot I remember." "Fair point." Leo admitted. Taking a box of chicken treats too he beamed. "Experimenting shall be fun. I just hope the cat will enjoy it too." They were intelligent being's though with their own personalities and preferences so it was possible that the cat could dislike both tuna and chicken. But Leo wasn't discouraged yet. This was so exciting! "What other things should i get; a litter box, collar, food, toys and a sleep basket right?" He had probably forgotten half of what he needed but Medea would help him he was certain.
Beaming broadly he laughed "Yes a library kitty, so I'd need a cat that loves attention and children and probably to be cuddled a lot." Remembering that Medea could need things for herself too Leo asked. “Anything else you need from the treat section?”

With a maid behind her she entered the shop and looked excited around her. She had asked her mother if she could visit the diagon alley and her mother had allowed her to go only is she would bring one of the maids at home with her and she was happy that the maid was with her. The last time she had visited the diagon alley she had been a little girl and if she was honest she would not have known where all the shops were she wanted to visit. “Look Little princess, here I can buy you a new cage!” Sonea looked at the rat she carried in her pocket and smiled. She walked further into the shop and searched for the cages who were made for rats and other small animals. But Sonea was not only here for a cage but she also wanted to have a owl. She had heard that she could bring two animals with her to Hogwarts and she had realized that it was easier if she had a owl of her own. But first she wanted to have a cage, and if it was possible a pink cage!

ANIMALS. Now he could do animals. Animals didn't talk to you, especially if you weren't even buying one. He had his dad's owl, there was no need for him to pick up an extra pooper.
Almost rushing into the shop to narrowly avoid a bustling mother with her three manic children running him over, Callum rapped his jacket protectively around his body and slammed the door shut behind him... And was greeted with a glorious silence. Taking a deep breath, he smiled. Just the scent of the hay, the fur and other animal-y smells was lovely. He didn't like term times in shopping centers. His dad had said that he could come with him, but nooooooo someone had to be independent. Someone who was now wishing he had asked his father to be a protector against wild mothers and their wild children.
As soon as his breath had been caught, he wandered deeper into the shop, a look of fascination taking over the panicked one that had previously been etched into his face. It was SO nice. And SO quiet. LOVELOVELOVE. Peering down, the lanky fourteen year old stared at the kittens that were mewing all over each other and his heart melted. Although he could already hear how that conversation would go: "Dad, I bought a kitten..." "Oh, what about your robes and books?" "... I didn't have enough money... Now can you send me money weekly for food." There was pushy, and then there was just plain taking the mick.
Not really registering the sound of the door opening into the shop, he smiled at the tiny animals. There was something deep inside of him that was fighting against the rationality of buying another pet.
Someone had better come and talk me out of this.

"Alright Toby, lets see if this shop has anything good for you, hmm?" Cat had picked up her little piglet to carry him into the shop, even though he was on a leash. He made happy!piggy noises when she put him back down and started glancing over the shelves.
Anything for little piggies? It was a long shot, sure, but she was going to try anyway. | |

Anything for little piggies? It was a long shot, sure, but she was going to try anyway. "Have you considered shoes for your pig? I think little wellies," Mo had pets in his pockets and a smile on his face, and this girl here had a pig. It was awesome. Unless she was just befriending it to lull it into a sense of safety before turning it into a BLT or something.
Because bacon was delicious, unless it was also your friend.
"What's he called? Or she? Pigs can be girls too. What's your name." Lots of questions all at once, and Mo took a deep breath to remind himself that some people got overwhelmed easily by his eagerness to know them. "I'm Mo. I have a bunny named Titus, only he's sleeping so he can't come out right now."

I have a bunny named Titus, only he's sleeping so he can't come out right now." "Tried them already, yep. He ate one." Cat replied to the question before she even looked up at the questioner. The pig was very interested in the newcomer and squealed at him in greeting, Cat, however, smiled. No squealing from her, at least, not right now. "His name is Toby." True facts. "He's totally a boy." Also true facts. "And I'm Caterina Moretti." SHE was a girl. True facts.
Cat didn't mind the rapid fire manner of his questions one little bit, it actually sort of reminded her of herself, she could get a bit over-excited when it came to meeting NEW PEOPLE. She'd definitely been enjoying it so far. "Nice to meetcha, Mo!" Cat GRINNED. "Bunnies are AWESOME." Legit awesome. "Does Titus have shoes?" Cause that would be pretty cool. | |

Oh, pigs were very excitable pets! Titus had never in his short life been excited to see anyone, although that was probably because he had such poor self-esteem. It was hard being a bunny. Mo offered a hand to the girl, since she seemed polite and friendly and... she had a pig. She was awesome.
"Titus has a whole wardrobe, but he hates it. I don't really have the heart to keep putting him in clothes and things. He has tap shoes, actually... so he can't sneak up on me. I'm pretty sure he's a vampire ninja bunny." Which sounded strange, but Mo was sure of it. "And he has a headband on account of him being a ninja, but it makes his eyes go buggy."

Since the boy offered his hand, she took it and gave it a proper shake. "You should buy Titus a toy. Do they have rabbit toys here?" Cat had no idea, but she was going to find out. Also, she needed a toy for Toby.
She glanced over the shelf for a moment, wondering what sort of toys Toby might like. Maybe he could pick one out himself? She gave a tug on his leash to get his attention, though he was rather interested in the boy. "A vampire ninja bunny?" HUH. Interesting. "Has he ever bitten you?" She was rather interested in this possibility. PERHAPS vampire ninja rabbits really did exist. She'd heard of stranger things, you know, magic and all. | |

It might win over Titus, who had been SO put out over the tap shoes, and he sort of wanted to reward the little bunny for being the best bunny in the world. "That's a plan... what sort of toys do bunnies like? And do they make toys for bats?"
Because he couldn't get Titus a toy without getting one for Egbert.
"My sister has a mean cat and a new dog. I suppose I should buy them gifts too..." Only he wasn't sure he wanted to buy gifts for other people's pets when his own pets were so NEEDY at the moment. "Titus hasn't ever bitten me. I'm not even sure he's a vampire, but I'm trying to make him feel good about himself by acting scared. How long have you had a pig? Can I pet it?"

"Titus hasn't ever bitten me. I'm not even sure he's a vampire, but I'm trying to make him feel good about himself by acting scared. How long have you had a pig? Can I pet it?" "That............" Cat looked around, "Is a good question." She picked up a toy that looked as if it were made for a cruppie, and nudged Toby with it. The piglet sniffed and snorted and carried on sniffing the other shelves. Right, that one was a NO GO.
"What do bats do, anyway? Besides fly?" She was trying to figure out what sort of toy a bat would like. "I think cat and dog toys will be easy." Most toys were made for cats and dogs and crups and cruppies, anyway. She picked out a fish on a string, "I hear cats love these." She didn't actually have any cats, so she couldn't say if that were true or not.
She giggled over his comments. "Well, that sounds like a good plan, though he might decide to bite you one day and test that theory." Cat handed over the cat toy, "Are you prepared for the possible repercussions of that act?" Eyebrow raise. Bahaha. She shrugged, "About two weeks now. He's been with me since a few days after he was born, I don't think he's going to get very big though." Well, she hoped not, it would be hard to take him out walking if he went around and knocked everyone over, wouldn't it? "Sure, he loves to be petted and scratched, especially behind his ears!" The brunette picked up the squealing piglet and held him out to Mo encouragingly. | |

He's pretty endearing... even if he sleeps all the time," Mo offered. He sort of wished he had the bat with him today, since they were doing pet show-and-tell. Even if Egbert was only being bat-sat and wasn't really Mo's.
"I hope Titus doesn't bite me, even if he's not a vampire. Of course, if he is, then I'll start thirsting for the heart blood of carrots or something." Not exactly terrifying. He could totally live with those repercussions. Mo turned his attention to the little piglet again, scratching him behind the ears and chuckling over the very BOISTEROUS greeting he was getting. "Chatty, innit?"

INTERESTING.
"He likes to make new friends." Sort of like Cat, really. Maybe Toby was Cat in piglet form? He sure was friendly. "Want to hold his leash?" She offered it to him, in case he did. | |

Alani had extra money to spare, and some free time on her hands, so naturally she was going to shop for her little piglet. She'd made a list, to keep on this budget and not get distracted by cute beds that her baby would love or toys for her to play with. Not today.
Today Alani was focused.
Her heels clicked audibly as she made her way down the aisle, list in hand, and mind on flowery smelling shampoos.

Today Alani was focused.
Her heels clicked audibly as she made her way down the aisle, list in hand, and mind on flowery smelling shampoos. Look, it wasn't that Rusty had made up his MIND to get a pet for Lolly, but... well it was a thought. Not until they got a place to live mind you, and he hadn't even hinted of the possibility to her because she'd go nuts about it. He just thought it might help her adjust maybe. And teach some of that responsibility thing.
But he had NO idea where to start....
... so he just stood there looking confused.

They really needed to have samples of these shampoos, she wanted to know how they would smell on her pet and for how long the scent would last. The woman didn't have money to be wasting on shampoos that would only last for a day or two. She unscrewed the top of one that smelled like baby powder and sniffed it thoughtfully. It wasn't bad but the one that smelled like Asian pears... it was good to.
Decisions to make, she had them.
Looking about, Alani saw a man looking lost. Men usually weren't much help for things like this, especially the ones that were looking lost, but there was no one else around and she needed second opinions.
She went up to him and stopped directly in front of him. "Excuse me. How much assistance would you be on shampoo scents?" She waited all of two moments before deciding it didn't matter, and holding out both bottles for him to take. "I need to know which you like best. To compare to which I like best."

Y'know actually Rusty was pretty good about smelling scented things, given he had a daughter, and shampoos and soaps and the like for little girls tended to be things like apple or vanilla or strawberry. Animal shampoos though, he wasn't so sure about those. Or about being asked by a stranger to sniff something.
At first he thought maybe this lady thought he was working here or something, given her question, so he gave her a strange look. But... alright.
"... sure." Rusty said and took the bottles. He sniffed one and then the other and then the first again. He made a thoughtful sound and then held the second one up. "This one." The other was a little bit chemical-y. One of them smelled like babies, the other like food. He liked the baby one better.

The other was a little bit chemical-y. One of them smelled like babies, the other like food. He liked the baby one better. She didn't think he worked here because he looked too much like a lost puppy in this shop. A really attractive lost puppy with a functioning nose. So his look was returned with a raised brows expectant one, because she did expect him to give her his opinion even if he didn't work here.
"This one?" She repeated questioningly, taking the winning bottle back and overlooking the label once more. "I'm not sure why you like this one better, but it's not a bad pick, stranger. If I ever see you again I'll tell you how well it worked on her." The chances of her ever seeing him again were slim to none, so that conversation would never happen. Sad.
Taking the other bottle back, she offered him a parting smile. "Thanks for helping, you can go back to your shopping... um.... staring thing now." What he was even doing she wasn't sure, and also didn't care. Getting one last parting look to seal him to her memory, she turned to do more shopping.

What he was even doing she wasn't sure, and also didn't care. Getting one last parting look to seal him to her memory, she turned to do more shopping. What now?
"On who?" Rusty HAD to ask, his expression confused. His own her being of the miniature person variety, that was where his mind was, see? Was this woman buying animal shampoo for a child? Would that even work? ...was it cheaper? "And I like it better because the other one makes me a little hungry. It smells like food. Non-edible things shouldn't smell edible, that's just asking for trouble I reckon." But he couldn't really convince Lola not to go for things that were edible for her hair either, so he doubted he'd have much luck with a random stranger.
Oh, the shampoo lady was done with talking then? That was it? How strange. "I'm not really.... shopping." Just to be clear. "Not yet. Just thinking about the possibility of it."

Oh, the shampoo lady was done with talking then? That was it? How strange. "I'm not really.... shopping." Just to be clear. "Not yet. Just thinking about the possibility of it." Alani, glad he'd picked up the other end of the conversation, moved in reverse, turning back so that she was facing him and looking up once more. The thought of her pet smelling like FOOD, especially since people already considered pigs food, horrified her a bit. "I'm going with the baby powder scent, the last thing I need is my miniature pig smelling like food." A really poor decision. "I'm gonna agree and say non-edible things for pets shouldn't smell like food. Non-edible things for people smelling like food is okay with me." It would just be a rule not to have Flower smell like edible objects.
"So you're window shopping? I do that a lot, it's cheaper." And also somewhat depressing. "What some help with your thoughts? I'm good at helping with shopping thoughts." She was practically a pro, and it would give her a chance to return the favor.

So it was probably a wise choice. Wait was that the wrong thing to say? Oh well.
.... he was kind of hungry now.
He looked at the woman at her offer to help him out. Hmm. "I'm trying to figure out what a good pet would be as a gift for a child. Possibly."

If she were a pork eater. But she wasn't. She was one of those who was against eating it, whatever they called themselves. "Flower wouldn't go well with pears." She was her baaaaaaaby, so that's what she would smell like.
"Any pet really." She paused and considered him for a moment. Hot!lost guy was looking for pet for a child? Hmm. "It just depends on the child's interest. If they want a cuddly pet, or one that they can just watch. Or one that would be good for playing and not just keep them company."
