Are you kidding me? They polluted every trade channel They tried to sell including supermarkets, 44.000 pet shops who are supplied by distributors, drug, Target, and on and on. This company owes salaried employees for non-payment of wages and is under the eye of the Department of Labor, and Federal ------------- Steckel, Bob Salluzo, Denton Jones, Engin, Marshall, how do you look at yourselves in the mourning???
Move to Florida?? The internet is the only place they can sell anything---but now with blogs that won't happen either.

Apr 07, 2009 08:39 ETPet Ecology Brands, Inc. Becomes Operational in New Headquarters and Manufacturing Facility
MIAMI, FL--(Marketwire - April 7, 2009) - Pet Ecology Brands, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: PECD) announced that its new 15,000 square state of the art manufacturing facility in Miami, Florida is now operational. The facility has been specifically designed for the custom manufacturing of its patented litter products to include conveying, blending and packaging equipment for high volume requirements. The manufacturing site, co-located with the Company's corporate offices includes a fully equipped testing laboratory for quality assurance and new product development. It is intended that other products will eventually be produced from this same facility.
Ralph Steckel, President and CEO, noted that, "The new manufacturing facility provides Pet Ecology with significantly increased production capacity, estimated to be in excess of 1.2 million pounds of litter per month. This allows us to approach major discounters such as Walmart and Target with the confidence that we can deliver product, while simultaneously expanding our presence in retail food and drug chains." He went on to say that, "The capacity of our plant is approximately 6 times greater than what we can secure from our present outsourced contract manufacturing locations and it gives us the flexibility of being able to react immediately to customer product need."
He also noted that, "We have been able to secure from component vendors cost reductions approximating 35%. Combining this with an expected 65% reduction in the cost of blending and packaging due to having our own manufacturing site would say that we expect to be more than competitive in the market place than we have been in the past while maintaining and improving our margins."
The Company reported further that on or about April 17, 2009 a custom software installation will be completed allowing for improved customer ordering, support and management reporting.
About Pet Ecology Brands, Inc.
Pet Ecology Brands, Inc. has developed a revolutionary patented cat litter that destroys urine odor, clumps, and is earth-friendly. The litter is ultra-lightweight and convenient to use (3 lbs works like 21 lbs of clay/sand-based products), it is 100% flushable and safe for sewer and septic tank systems. Most importantly, it is completely safe for cats and our environment, and does not contain any sodium bentonite, as used in many competing brands. The design helps to protect the landfills, and yet does everything that clay litters do... and more. It has the ability to help indicate certain diseases commonly occurring in cats. The technique used is similar to that found in Merck's Veterinarian Manual. However, this litter not only warns of possible illness, but may also help indicate how far along the illness may be by the color the litter changes to, thereby providing the pet owner significant additional benefits and an early warning system concerning the cat's health.
Pet Ecology's K-9 Fat Free Dog Treats™ are the first fat free treats on the market that meet the standards of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, and offer dog owners an effective means to provide their pets with a non-fat tasty treat. They are also cholesterol free and sodium free. According to U.S. News & World Report, "the number one health problem for dogs is obesity." Today, dogs are fed fat rich food and treats, and often get significantly less exercise than required to maintain an ideal weight and healthy condition. Overweight dogs are more prone to serious injury, skeletal stress, and the same complications that people experience with significant weight gain via fat rich diets, ranging from heart and lung problems, to skin and kidney diseases, to circulatory and immune system issues.

Pet Ecology Achieves Strong Revenue Growth
1st Week in April Shipments Exceed 5,600 Resulting in $112,000 in Revenue and Gross Margins of $56,000
Pet Ecology Brands, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: PECD) announced today it has shipped over 5,600 orders resulting in excess of $112,000 in revenue and gross margins of $56,000. The total current monthly recurring orders total 8,142 resulting in $162,840 in revenue and $81,000 in gross margins.
The $112,000 in revenue represents a 2,115% increase over the corresponding period last year and an increase of 392.83% in YTD revenue over the corresponding period last year. Based on the current recurring monthly orders the company has an annual run rate that exceeds $1,954,080.
The monthly recurring orders are a result of the national television advertising campaign introducing Pet Ecology Brand's "Perfect Litter Alert" to the home delivery market. The advertisement has run successfully on 14 different television network channels nationally including: The Animal Planet, Discovery Channel, The Food Network, Lifetime TV, Fine Living, Hallmark, E! TV, HGTV, and Bravo.
After a long series of market tests intended to determine the effectiveness of content of the advertising being used on TV and Internet marketing, the company has come up with an advertising plan which will ensure continuous growth of the home delivery business and Pet Ecology's brand awareness.
The national advertising was conducted by the Company's former Internet and home delivery licensee, Pet Ecology Direct, LLC. The Internet and home delivery division is now wholly owned by Pet Ecology Brands, Inc. The company recently struck a deal to merge the direct business back into the core company.
"We expect orders to continue to increase as we fine tune the message and delivery through analyzing our analytical web data from the media buys. These results are a key part of our core effort to build shareholder value that they have long awaited and deserve," stated CFO Bob Salluzzo.

Congrats. Join the few, the not so proud, PECD soldiers.
Doesn't look like the YE statement had much effect. Burn has reduced, but losses continue. Hope something nice comes out of the patent infringement issue. That company you referenced is private and sounds like a mini operation at best. I know that Pet Ecology had a deal with WalMart about three years ago that went nowhere. The orders were supposed to be container loads, but ended up being a skid here and a skid there.
Marketing is important, but customer acceptance if the real key. I wish they would knock off their prices to at least match the cheap stuff. Their margins are really too high for the product, IMO, and by matching the competion with a superior product, the sales would increase dramatically and recover any potential gross profit differences.
Heading to CA in the morning, will be watching like everyone else.

PET ECOLOGY TO FILE PATENT INFRINGEMENT LAWSUIT
DALLAS, TX -- 04/03/08 -- Pet Ecology Brands, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: PECD) announced today it has retained the BALL LAW FIRM, LLP, Los Angeles, CA, and that it intends to protect its patent from being infringed on by competitors that are selling its patented products to retailers including Target Corp. and Wal-Mart Stores.
Pet Ecology's patented sickness-indicating, color-change reactor is a controlled, six-patented factor which detects the pH level of a cat's urine and indicates whether urinary tract infection is present. The less acidic a cat's urine, the more susceptible he/she is to forming stones or crystals in the urinary tract. The color of the litter changes to varying shades of pale pink to magenta when the pH in a cat's urine is abnormal. The darker the shade of pink, the more serious the problem may be.
The patents protect innovations that enable the detection the pH level of a cat's urine among other specific technology advances. In the lawsuit, Pet Ecology Brands, Inc. will seek an injunction that would prevent these companies from further misappropriating Pet Ecology, Inc.'s technology and infringing Pet Ecology, Inc.'s patents. The lawsuit also seeks unspecified monetary damages arising from the companies' unauthorized use of the patented technology and the continued willful infringement of Pet Ecology's, Inc.'s patents.
"Based on research by our firm and associates this seems to be an open and shut case," Byron T. Ball, attorney at BALL LAW FIRM, LLP, stated. "Pet Ecology Brands has patents and the other two companies do not.
"Unlike traditional clay-based cat litter brands, Perfect Litter is made with all natural and biodegradable minerals, making it environmentally friendly to landfills. A recipient of the 2008 SPCA's Best of the Best Award for Excellence in Cat Litter, the litter is significantly lighter than other brands, and can be shipped economically. These benefits are in addition to the sickness-indicating features and we intend to defend our superior patented protected litter," stated Ralph Steckel, CEO, Pet Ecology Brands, Inc.
"We have identified two companies that have willfully infringed on our patents. We intend to stop the infringement and defend the patented technology behind our flagship product 'Perfect Litter Alert.' These patents and the products they represent will be utilized to provide the shareholders with the value they deserve and have long awaited," stated CFO Bob Salluzzo.

"This company was dead back in 2003, Ralph and Jane were just too stupid and Greedy to bury it. They issued Fake stock certificates when they thought I would be putting more money into it. The promoters were making 400 times more than the price of the stock issued directly from the company. Ralph, you are a theif and a conman, and that's who you surround yourself with...Remember Jack Gross, Ralph. I am going to wipe my ass with the certs I have and send them back to Ralph. Pet Ecology is one of the biggest scams ever, and Gerald Kieft and Wall Street whatever are no better than glorified pickpockets."
Not to diminish your sense of scamm-ed-ness, but check out the boards connected with the following pinkies: AMGG (formerly RGNO); BVRG (formerly GGGI); TWVH (formerly TWAV, formerly TDWV). There's plenty of us who have been bent over and buggered by the scum that run pinkie companies.
