Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

The Board of Directors of PETCO Animal Supplies, Inc. (the “Company”) has appointed Peter Maslen to the Company’s Audit Committee effective May 12, 2006. Mr. Maslen is currently a director of the Company and is an “independent director” as defined in Rule 4200(a)(15) of the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules, meets the independence requirements of Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and satisfies the additional independence and financial literacy standards required of all audit committee members pursuant to Marketplace Rule 4350(d)(2)(A).

As previously disclosed in the Company’s Current Reports on Form 8-K filed on November 2, 2005 and November 14, 2005, the resignation of Arthur B. Laffer as a director and member of the Company’s Audit Committee effective November 7, 2005 reduced the number of members of the Audit Committee to two and thus caused the Company temporarily to fall out of compliance with the audit committee composition requirements of NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 4350(d)(2)(A) which requires an audit committee composed of three independent members. The appointment of Mr. Maslen to serve on the Audit Committee has allowed the Company to regain compliance with Rule 4350(d)(2)(A). The Company received confirmation from NASDAQ on May 12, 2006 that it has regained compliance with Rule 4350(d)(2)(A) and the matter has been closed.
