Well what do you know, the first scam of the season. www.worldpetstore.com didn't pull through with the add. Seems no answer to any phones they have and even found a ripoff page posted during tracking of my order of others that had been taken. The website sure was a legit one though. But I guess that is how they get it to work. Now, in making a webpage and at one time owning my own webstore and being able to accept credit cards, there has to be a home base somewhere. Can't and why wouldn't they go to the homebase computer address to catch the thief? I know if it were me, I would be spending the holiday not worrying about my 3 hots and a cot.......

If you used a credit card, just dispute the charge with the credit card company. That is what I do all the time. Had something like this happen on a $450 bike rim that I ordered, so I protested the charge. Lo and behold, a month and a half after the order, I received the rim. Won't be doing business with them again, but at least I didn't end up totally up the creek.
