Pet shop in Ewhurst Road Over half of all households in the UK have at least one pet. In the 18th century the trade in pets was informal. You could buy caged  birds at a market, but puppies and kittens were freely given away. The late 19th century  saw a growth in specialist shops. Willson’s Pets in Goodge Street, London  began to offer pedigree cats and dogs. Tropical fish were first available from the 1920s. Gerbils and hamsters appeared  in the 1950s. The origin, health and safety of animals in pet shops is now an important issue and increasingly regulated.
