America's Pet Owners in the United States 2009
Mintel, Nov 2009, Pages: 110
Headlines proclaiming that the pet care market has remained strong despite the recession have appeared frequently in the trade press. But given the nature and depth of the human-pet bond, a more accurate assessment might be that the pet care market is strong because of the recession. While animal shelters report that economic circumstances have indeed forced more owners to give up their pets, most of us continue to hold our pets close. Difficult, stressful times seem to have put a premium on the unconditional love and nurturing that pets provide.
This Mintel report provides an in-depth exploration of pet owners in America, looks at pet ownership, attitudes towards pets, patterns of purchase of pet food and supplies. This is a sister report to Mintel’s Pet Food and Supplies—U.S., July 2009. Specifically this report explores:
