Please contact the following stores and ask them to follow in the footsteps of Target and other large chain stores that realized, after many calls and letters, that keeping fish and other small animals in tiny prisons in their stores was cruel. Tell them that you are horrified at the way they sell betta fish in tiny cups of water, stacked up like merchandise. Please contact:
