It was originally "pets mart". Now it is "pet smart".

Hardly.

The cosmic timeline did not change. They changed the names over the course of the same timeline to make $.

"Pets Mart" is as good a name as "Wal Mart" or "K Mart", but "Pet smart"...is just a notch better (flattering the customer by telling them they are "smart" to shop HERE is a good gimmick). So they changed the name...in the same timeline history.

Just like how Justin Timberlake's character (the real life guy who had earlier founded Napster) was hip enough to foresee that "Facebook" would sell in the wide world outside the college better than the clunky "The Facebook".

As much as I wish it would, I doubt going to Petsmart will increase my intelligence.

Although I do like it when they have baby guinea pigs at the store. Next to cats, guinea pigs are my favorite pets. I think they are such cute little furry potatoes. :heart:

I don't know all the details. I see Petsmart as this groovy store that sells pea green birds and goldfish.
