Love it here! This woman pours her heart and soul into these animal and deserves WAY more credit than she receives. Her animals are the friendliest around and my cat loves the toys and collars I bring home from there!

This lady working the shop has a heart of gold and is doing her best to help these animals, but the store is just not very clean, smells horribly of cat urine, all the cats look underfed and sick, and when I saw the other man working there open the hermit crab cage I saw cobwebs building up in there. The turtles don't look too good, and there's plenty of dead fish in the tanks. The fish might be painted.....and the reptile cages are all too small. The store overall is just filthy, and the animals conditions are terrible as well. The lady working this shop, like I said, has her heart in the right place but she just needs more help. Don't just hate on her because the store is unclean, just be sad that she can't care for them properly and try to offer help. I really hope that some day when she'll get the help she needs to run the store, that the animals will be in better condition.

This place doesn’t deserve a single star. The store constantly has a pungent odor of cat urine. Cats are riddled with fleas and mites and have visible signs of malnutrition. Fish tanks are filthy and the fish are very clearly painted. The part of this establishment that makes me the most upset is the reptiles. As a reptile keeper myself I have never seen anything worse than the conditions of these reptiles. The enclosures are ridiculously tiny. The reptiles are kept on what looks to be cat litter and as with most everything in this store, they are filthy. The animals are fed pellet food which is not okay as a staple. The chameleons are visibly depressed and anxious, one of the turtles is constantly in the same corner and only pushes on the glass every now and then. My family saved a cat from here and he has various lung problems from the bad air quality he was raised in. Don’t ever purchase an animal from here.

Absolutely terrible. The dogs were in a pen walking around in their own feces and they looked miserable. There were so many cats walking around that would climb on you, and looked like they were so sick! The smell in the place is almost overbearing (obviously pet stores are going to have a smell) but I hope this place gets inspected and those animals can find a better home!

My kids and I love going to this pet store in Yankton, SD. The owner is so nice!! She takes in abandoned cats and dogs providing them the necessary care they need, plus shelter from the elements. The care she gives each pet shows that they are her top priority and she loves them dearly. Fish 'n' Stuff offers a wide variety of fish, and aquatic plants. She has a number of birds, reptiles, bunnies, cats and dogs.

We were walking around yankton today and atumbled upon this little shop. We read the sign on the door and scurried in so the cats couldnt get out. Walking in was all good until door closed. The ammonia smell was VERY strong. Working in the animal field over 13 + years knowing the smell was overpowering. One thing about reading some of these review's that the lady must have a big heart and tries to do the right thing. She briefly said hello and asked if we needed help and then went to the back of the store. Noone else was around and noone to make sure nothing would be stolen was very suprising to me. Coming from a shelter standpoint, it is nice to walk into a shelter and not be able to smell the strong smell of ammonia from cat urine. Maybe a ventilation system, or a fan of some sort to blow air in or out would be better so people can stop in to see pets and adopt some. The fish tanks were not full and dead fish were floating about. maybe it would be good to have some volunteers to help her out so she is not so overwhelmed.

these are animals that have been dropped off or rescued . I bet they are doing there very best so don't judge the book by its cover and the animals there don't hate they need and love. they need a home and they deserve a home. I went in there yesterday and the animals just are so sweet and amazing. plus not everyone is perfect and we all know we don't want to be judged. so if you really care why don't you help them out and save one of them and help them. be a good person because words can't be taken back.

If I could rate 0 stars, I would. There is another review below that sums it all up too well. It smells horrendous inside but what's worse is the condition of the animals, starting with the cats. They are free range across the whole store, and in the back behind some doors is what I'm assuming is an unkept litterbox, because of the smell. The kittens are born with missing hair and illness, common signs of feline leukemia which occurs through infected contact of feces and urine. The bearded dragons are disfigured with metabolic bone disease, and the puppies are kept in this small fenced in area until someone takes them. I'm urging you to visit and then call an animal control officer to investigate.

Strong ammonia smell and most of the cats were sick and hurt. Their blue macaw meeds its beak and claws trimmiednbecause he had to turn his head to eat. The rats were so cramped they were laying on each other and one hamster had a strange sack by its feet. The cats had to drink out of the dirty fish water and were all so thin. Half of the animals are not for sale anyway. Their alligator is in such a cramped cage it looks so sad. I dont know how this place is even open! I think an animal cruelty organization needs to check it out.

This store broke my heart, there are cats running everywhere with eye infections sores on their skin from scratching. Guinea pigs with bald spots from mites, fish takes that look worse then lake water. Birds were cramped in a small hot room in the back. I can’t start to explain the dirt and filth all over things that were being sold

Always so nice and to see some one actually caring for these animals and dedicating every day to make sure they have a roof over their head food in their bellies I got to give a lot of credit to Jan for taking out time everyday and caring for these animals. Thank you for your dedication to these animals.

This shop smells HORRIBLE and the cats walking around look like they are starving! All the animals cages are so filthy I can't believe the animals aren't all sick and dying.This place need to be shut down immediately!

It smelled a little but, over all the fish are very good. Look out for died fish and fish that have ick or white dots on them. That is caused by stress so, every shore could have that. I would go back!

Very overpriced and it smells like animal feces and urine the outside of the bird cages are covered with poop. I know it's a pet store but I've been to plenty of pet stores and by far this is almost one of the dirtiest.

Stopped by yesterday around 6 to see if I could check it out. They were closed but the display windows and what I could see inside did not look clean or like it was well kept at all. Not sure if this is because they are lacking business or if they just don't care. Will be in later and will update

Multiple worm infections of different kinds, fleas all over and health problems she's supposed to tell you about but doesn't like a hernia. Terrible.

The place kinda smells but not to bad. I just wish they had more options and more things to buy like food, chews, hides, and stuff like that.

Great selection and prices especially the necessities such as live insects and specialty lighting. Most importantly the animals are happy and active.
