"Pets at home have a new top dog. I've been regaling everyone on the team because we have a new pet at home but not a dog. It's a cat. Anyway, pets at home. Tell me more. Uh yes, a new top dog. A new CEO. He's called James Bailey. He he comes from Waitros. Uh he was managing director at Waitrose. So it comes after um Pets at home obviously did very well during COVID and then this year particular have been struggling. They're in the middle of a turnaround. So hoping that the stock is rising on on this slightly so I guess there's a bit of hopes for renewal in 2026."
