Form 10-QSB, N-SAR, or the transition report or portion thereof could not be
filed within the prescribed period.
The Company filed its Form 10SB-12g on December 10, 1999 and its Exchange
Act registration became effective on February 11, 2000. Although its filing
is now effective, certain comments remain unresolved with the Staff of the
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Those unresolved comments could
have an effect on the financial statements included in the Form 10-QSB. The
Company expects to resolve legal and accounting comments soon and to
proceed in filing its quarterly report in a timely fashion.

PetQuarters completed the purchase of Humboldt Industries and
Maplewood as of August 1, 1999. Accordingly, the operations of
PetQuarters will reflect the operations of these acquired businesses for
the quarter ended and six months ended December 31, 1999. Management
expects the sales of PetQuarters for the three months ended and six
months ended December 31, 1999 to be significantly higher than the three
months ended and the six months ended December 31, 1998. Although the
Company's sales will have increased, management expects to report an
operating loss.
