I would like to buy some scales to monitor Toby's weight. I have tried the pet stores around me and they dont carry them. Petsmart didnt even have them. Does anyone know of an online site where I could get some?

I bought a digital kitchen scale. I put a kitchen plate on it and then zero it. Molly (mom) weighs between 5 and 6 lbs. It also came in handy when she had pups then I could weigh them in grams and keep track of their weight.

When I finally buy one...that is.......it is perfect because it goes down to the smallest ounce......

You can buy a digital scale at Walmart. That is what I have and it works pretty good when they are smaller but once they get a litter bigger it is hard to get them to sit in the tray long enough for you to weigh them. PetEdge has them. I never thought of Ebay. That's a good idea too. Probably cheaper than PetEdge.

I bought a postal scale off ebay. It weighs up to 25 pounds.
