About
Whiskers Wings And Wild Things in Canton, Ohio is a family-owned pet shop that casts a wide net — fish, reptiles, cats, rabbits, and more — all under one roof with a distinctly homey atmosphere. Walk through the door and you might be greeted by one of the resident cats roaming freely among the aisles, setting a tone that's more neighborhood hangout than sterile retail chain. On the aquatic side, the store carries a solid freshwater fish selection, including Oscars, plecos, and a wide range of feeder fish.
Reviewers specifically call out their selection for turtle and aquatic creature supplies as the best and biggest in the greater Canton area. Night crawler enthusiasts will appreciate what customers describe as the fattest and most lively bait worms around — a detail that speaks to the store's attention to stocking quality live goods. Beyond fish, the store carries invertebrates including isopods, terrarium plants, and a variety of reptile supplies.
Multiple customers mention shopping here regularly for bearded dragon food and cat supplies, praising the staff's ability to recommend better products for their pets' health. The store clearly functions as a one-stop shop for Canton-area pet owners with diverse collections. The staff draws consistent praise for being genuinely helpful and willing to guide customers toward the right products.
One reviewer drives 20 miles specifically because of the honest, kind service — the kind of loyalty that's hard to manufacture. The rewards program also gets a nod as "actually decent," which in retail speak means it's worth signing up for. It's worth noting that some customers have raised concerns about animal health and terrarium plant quality and pricing, so inspecting live animals and plants carefully before purchase is always wise.
But for Canton pet owners looking for a locally owned shop with personality, a broad inventory of freshwater fish and aquatic supplies, and staff who remember your name, Whiskers Wings And Wild Things delivers a shopping experience the big-box stores simply can't replicate.

Customer reviews
“Up side is it's not far from home, but the isopods had heavy mold they avoided in the container from the over saturated soil "soup at the bottom of the container" and what looked like a Chuck of carrot as food for them along with gnats/larvae throughout. Also the plants for terrariums is lacking and over priced look elsewhere til then.”

— Heidi Leach5.06 days ago“sold me a Scottish short haired kitten for 300 not including all of the kittens stuff from here the cat passed 5 days later with a panleukopenia also known as kitty fever. He said the kitten was healthy and vaccinated. The emergency veteran clinic we ruahed him to at 4 in the morning informed me it takes about ten days for kittens to start showing symptoms. So he basically sold me a dead cat.”
