Isn’t it illegal to sell animals that aren’t in good health at a pet store?

Shouldn’t they give them at least part of their vaccines?

I’m not sure how this works but I got a kitten from there,and he more than likely has asthma. I plan on taking him to the vet.
It was just my kitten that I know of. That is the first time I have ever bought a pet there that I can remember of,and I got him a week ago. A few days later he started choking up.

Experienced NZ farmers please…question about NZ animal feed?

Lobster asked:


I have heard that in NZ, cattle consumes around 20 kilos of grass per day and sheep consumes 2 kilos, I would like to know if that figures is right, or, are those animals eat dry food like corn starch? And how many kilos does them eat a day.
Are those animal feed necessary? Or its simply some kind of health supplement?
How many Farmers will buy animal feed for cattle and sheep in NZ (percentage?)
