Of the remaining 18 stores, 9 closed and 9 were sold to other pet stores. "As we developed our restructuring plan it became evident the only viable options available to us were to either close or sell the stores." said President and CEO Dan Urbani. "While we have been forced to close 9 stores we are pleased that 9 stores have been sold and will continue operating as pet stores".[3] In popular culture
