Russians
love their pets and over the past years a large
number of well-stocked pet food and supply stores
have sprung up in Moscow.
You
can purchase essential canned and dried food
and cat litter at almost every local supermarket
(limited selection and rather expensive). For
better prices, larger choices and pet supplies
other than basic food, including more delectable
treats, simply visit one of the numerous specialized
pet stores that carry a full range of pet food
and supplies, including special diet foods (such
as Hill's Science Diet), veterinary medications,
cat litter, toys, scratching posts, cat and
dog kennels, leashes, etc. There are a lot of
them all over town (the addresses for the biggest
and best of them are provided below).
Most
pet stores are open seven days a week, usually
from 9 am or 10 am to at least 7 pm or 8 pm.
Pet food and supplies are more expensive in
Moscow when compared to Western Europe and North
America.
