The Pet Veterinary Diet Market size is estimated at USD 21.24 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 33.63 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 9.63% during the forecast period (2024-2029).
Dogs dominated the global pet veterinary diets market due to their increasing susceptibility to various diseases
-- Global pet ownership rates are steadily rising as the global economy is
rapidly growing, driven by increasing urbanization and industrial rates.
The attitude toward pets has been evolving, particularly in developing
countries over the years. As a result, the global veterinary diet market
reached USD 17.64 billion in 2022, which increased by 74.4% between 2017
and 2022. This growth is driven by the growing trend of pet
humanization.
-- The dog segment held a major share of the global pet veterinary diet
market, with a value of USD 9.11 billion in 2022. This dominance is
attributed to the presence of a large population of dogs and their
increased susceptibility to various diseases due to their lifestyle and
genetics. Furthermore, the larger size of dogs necessitates a higher
demand for veterinary diets to meet their specific nutritional needs.
-- The cats segment is emerging as one of the fastest-growing segments in
the global pet veterinary diet market, with a projected CAGR of 7.5%
during the forecast period. This is owing to the significant increase in
the cat population as a result of the growing popularity of cats as pets
due to their low maintenance requirements and cost-effectiveness
compared to other pets.
-- Other pets also have significant requirements for veterinary diets to
prevent various potential health problems. However, the population of
other pets is low due to legal and environmental restrictions. As a
result, the other pets' veterinary diet market reached a value of USD
2.76 billion in 2022.
-- The increasing awareness among pet owners and the growing population of
pets are estimated to drive the global pet veterinary diet market during
the forecast period.
Growing pet humanization and increasing pet owners focus on their pet health driving the pet veterinary diets market
-- In the global veterinary diets market, North America held the largest
market share, accounting for 47.9% of the market in 2022. In the region,
the United States is the largest market, valued at USD 7.54 billion in
the same year. The large market share of the United States can be
attributed to the prevalent usage of specialized pet diets and the
growing trend of pet humanization, where pets are regarded as family
members and receive specialized care.
-- Europe has the second-largest share of the global pet veterinary diets
market, with a value of USD 4.64 billion in 2022. The region's growth is
highly driven by increasing awareness of pet owners on their pet health
and well-being. Veterinary diets have gained significant importance
across the region. Europe's pet veterinary diets market increased by
44.6% between 2017 and 2021, owing to the rising pet population in the
region, which reached 324.4 million in 2022, increasing from 290.5
million in 2017.
-- Asia-Pacific accounted for 17.6% of the market, valued at USD 3.10
billion in 2022. Asia-Pacific had a major share due to its pet
population being 32.8% of the global pet population in the same period.
The growing awareness about pet health concerns and pet humanization
trend among pet owners in Asia-Pacific increased the pet veterinary
diets market in the region by 40% between 2017 and 2021.
-- South America is the fastest-growing region for the pet veterinary diets
market, which is anticipated to record a CAGR of 14.2% during the
forecast period. This can be attributed to the growing pet owner's focus
on their pet health driven by the increasing pet humanization.
-- The growing pet population and pet humanization globally are the factors
anticipated to drive the market during the forecast period.
Cats are the second-largest adopted pets globally due to their growing adoption as companions and increasing awareness about the benefits of owning a cat
-- Globally, cats are being less adopted compared to the adoption of dogs.
In 2022, the cat population accounted for 24.8% of the global pet
population, witnessing an increase in the population by 19.2% between
2017 and 2022. The share of cats will be higher in Europe as they
consider them to be a symbol of luck or fortune. This has been true
since historical times, particularly in Russia, which has been a major
country with a high population of cats as pets. The high growth of the
cat population globally was because of the rise in pet humanization.
Cats require less space to live compared to dogs and can stay alone in a
home for a longer time while no human is available to take care of the
cat. For instance, between 2017 and 2022, more than 70% of pet parents,
including cat parents, in Russia and the United States considered cats
as family members, friends, or children.
-- Moreover, there was a significant increase in cat adoption during the
pandemic as people had to stay indoors, and cats can stay indoors
without being cooped up and are silent animals compared to dogs. The
United States witnessed higher adoption of cats as pets during the
pandemic because of the work-from-home culture, leading to a demand for
companionship and a higher number of pet owners being millennials. For
instance, in 2022, millennials were 33% of pet parents in the United
States. The higher adoption of cats during the pandemic is expected to
have a positive impact for a longer period on the pet food market's
growth. Factors such as an increase in the adoption and purchase of cats
and an increase in pet humanization are expected to help the growth of
the pet cat population, and it further helps in the growth of the pet
food market during the forecast period.
The Pet Veterinary Diet Market is fragmented, with the top five companies occupying 34%. The major players in this market are Colgate-Palmolive, General Mills, Mars, Nestle and Schell & Kampeter.
