Fast-growing number of
Pets in households
The shift from pet ownership to pet parenting has been a crucial and defining trend in the market, particularly in developed countries. More than one-third of households in developed countries own a pet.
85 million European households have a pet. As this number increases, so does their role in people’s lives. Pets offer companionship, affection and protection and unique bonds are formed with their owners.
