What are the most memorable funny pet store stories?

One funny story was when a customer tried to return a CD that was clearly scratched because his cat had used it as a scratching post. He expected a full refund! Another time, a singer - songwriter came into the store to perform a few songs for promotion. But his guitar strap broke in the middle of the performance and he ended up chasing his guitar around the store while still trying to sing. Hilarious.

One memorable story was when I found a set of salt and pepper shakers that were shaped like a cow and a pig. They were so goofy - looking that I had to buy them. Every time I use them, I can't help but chuckle.

There was a time when a customer thought a scope was a camera attachment for the gun. He asked if he could take pictures with it. The store owner had to explain the real purpose of a scope. It was hilarious.

I once saw a video of a goat that thought it was a dog. It followed the dogs around, tried to play fetch with them and even barked like a dog. It was quite the sight. Apparently, it grew up with the dogs and thought it was one of them. This shows how animals can be so influenced by their environment in a really comical way.

A girl painted her pet rock to look like a famous movie star. She would take pictures of it in different movie - like scenarios. For example, she had a little cardboard set of a jungle and put the rock there as if it was an explorer. It was super funny to see the rock in these situations.

There was this one time when my pet rat found a ball of yarn. It started running around with the yarn trailing behind it, getting all tangled up in the process. It looked like a furry little ball of chaos. I had to carefully untangle it while it sat there looking at me with its beady little eyes as if it didn't understand what all the fuss was about.

One memorable one is about a man who left his beloved old hat to his parrot in his will. The parrot would then perch on the hat and cackle as if it knew it was now the owner of this special hat.

Well, there's a story where a person called 911 because their ice cream cone melted too fast. They were so distraught over losing their treat that they thought it was a major crisis. Another is when someone called because their cat was stuck on the roof, but the cat came down right as the firefighters arrived. It was hilarious.

In 2020, my local community organized a drive - by birthday parade for a 90 - year - old neighbor. The cars were all decorated with balloons and signs. But one car's balloons got loose and started flying all over the place. It was chaos but also really funny. It made the old man laugh a great deal.

One of the common horror stories involves the lack of proper veterinary care. Pets in mall stores are sometimes sold with underlying health issues that could have been easily treated if the store had a vet on call. For example, I knew of a case where a puppy had a heart condition that the store didn't disclose. Also, poor living conditions are very common. Dirty cages, no clean water, and bad air circulation are things that often happen in these pet stores.
