Small Animal Products: U.S. Pet Market Trends and Opportunities

With a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.2% between 2016 and 2021, sales of small animal pet products will enjoy steady and continued growth over the next five years. The bedding and litter segment is fueling much of this growth as the second largest segment in the small animal products category and the segment experiencing the fastest increase in 2016. Another key opportunity for marketers is households with older children, which show an even stronger preference for small animals as pets than the already strong preference seen for households with children of any age. Other important trends include a strengthening interest in brand name among small animal pet owners and natural chews and toys.
