Questions about opening a pet shop? -

i think i would like to start my own pet shop one day, im not interested in selling or adopting out animals but i want to sell pet supplies. i think it would great for me because i am crazy about cats, however there are alot of things i dont understand about opening it. 1) what would be the best college degree for me to get to open it? 2) the dreaded question lol, about how much would it cost to start the shop ( it would be a small shop) 3) what about employees? 4) is there anything else i should know?ps-- i know its going take years to open it, but im willing to do whatever i have to.

Your best bet at this time is to seek employment in the type of pet shop you are thinking about opening. Watch, build your own network, listen and learn. Having a Business degree is always helpful.
