To my extended Wilmette Pet Center family. Christopher here, former manager. I miss the store, and David, terribly, as many of you still do. Our store may still be closed, but I still consider you all, and your pets, family.
I'm really thrilled to say that I am continuing my passion for pets and their care in my new role as manager of Kriser's Natural Pet in Wilmette. When you walk in, you'll be struck by the similarities: we carry almost the exact same selection of the best cat and dog foods, treats, chews, and toys. Not having small animals, fish, and reptiles has taken a little adjusting to, but that just means I'll have to get some for my home. Kriser's has the same passion and dedication to providing the best for your pets - from nutritionists to groomers to behaviorists dedicated to holistic pet wellness.
Even better, the company is incredible. Their concept of care extends to their team members, and I've never felt more welcomed and supported. I've met the most incredible people who love animals just as much as I do.
I hope you'll stop by and say hi, and, if you haven't yet, check us out. I'm there Sundays through Thursdays (but not the 31st). I've had the joy of seeing several of my former customers there already, and that's made my heart sing (and brought a tear to my eyes).
I'd like to think that Dave is looking down on me with happiness and pride. I'd not be here without his influence.
