Le Bon Coin may seem like an easy solution for buying a pet. A real catalog of all breeds of animals of all kinds, the speed of choice and the waiting times that do not or hardly exist have charmed more than one. However, this is not necessarily a good solution.
Indeed, even if one may be tempted to go to the right corner for the purchase of certain species of animals such as guinea pigs, fish or even cats, the guarantees of traceability are not sufficiently present to buy a purebred animal.
So if you decide to take the plunge, trust professional sellers of the breeder type, but beware of individuals who do not always respect the essential breeding rules. Check that the animal has been weaned, that it has received vaccines and chips. For purebred animals, do not hesitate to ask for the parents' identity card in order to verify the veracity of the statements.
Finally, we can only warn you against advertisements at overly attractive prices, promising you a cheap pedigree animal. Quality is paid for, and even on the right corner. An ad that is too attractive often hides an animal that has flaws or missing qualities to make it a purebred animal.
