Hide AdGraeme said: “We were really pleased to get this award recognising the quality of the service we offer especially as we are going into our 25th year in business.
“The past 18 months have been hard for independent retailers and Creature Comforts couldn’t have got through this without the support of our dedicated staff and the backing of our tremendous customer base.
“The pandemic lockdowns have shown how important pets can be in a household and we look forward to continuing to work with long-standing and new customers to help them care for a very wide variety of pets.”
East Renfrewshire MP Kirsten Oswald has tabled a motion in the House of Commons congratulating Creature Comforts.
