Are you allowed to bring your cat into stores?

If you have your cat in a one of those pet carrier bags can you bring them into stores? I know a lot of stores allow you to do so for dogs.
My kitty loves going places with me, and in a couple months we’re going to college together. I don’t know who my roommate will be yet, and don’t want to worry about leaving the two of them alone when I go shopping.
The college I am going to has a pet friendly dorm house.

The only stores I can think of that won’t allow cats (or any animals at that matter) would be places that sell food items (for safety and sanitation reasons). Clothing stores, malls, pet shops, etc. shouldn’t have a problem with you bringing your cat in with you as long as he/she is properly restrained to avoid physical harm to your cat or other people/animals. Hope this helps
No store or mall i’ve ever been to allows pets at all.
usually yes, as long as your cat doesnt, erm, "evacuate" any bodily fluids or wastes on the floor.
Most places of business in the United States do not allow animals, unless they are service animals (like a seeing-eye-dog) or a pet-oriented business (like PetsMart).
Also, if you’re going to be living on campus, most dormitories do not allow pets. Really, whether or not you can have your cat will be up to your roommate(s). If they’re fine with it, then you could probably get away with having your cat with you at college, but suppose your assigned roommate is allergic? or simply doesn’t like animals? You certainly wouldn’t be able to take your cat with you to class.
Hi,
i assume shopping won’t be the only time that you would be apart from your kitty… like classes? i think you should be more concerned about finding a roommate that will allow for and love your kitty – regardless of your shopping habits.
I personally have seen cats, rabbits, snakes and other animals in my local PetSmart store accompanied by their owners. Cats were either held or on leashes, rabbits were all held, and the snakes were usually draped around the neck of their owner.
