We’ve scoured the internet searching for the most exciting up-and-coming trends, and here’s what we’ve found.
Green is the new black in pet care! From biodegradable waste bags and plant-based foods to chemical-free grooming, an increasing range of eco-friendly and clean products are becoming available.
It’s great news for your environmentally conscious clients, as switching to more sustainable alternatives can help reduce their carbon footprint. Did you know, for example, that meat-eating by dogs and cats in the US alone creates the equivalent of about 64 million tonnes of CO2 a year? It’s roughly the same impact as driving 12.5 million cars for 12 months.
Travelling with pets can be overwhelming at times. So, why not add a touch of comfort to it? High-end pet travel products and accessories are on the rise, promising to make the whole experience a lot more enjoyable. Think pet water bottles, collapsible dog bowls, fashionable travel carriers complete with padded interiors, thermo-kitty mats, and more.
When it comes to pet healthcare, early detection is all about staying one step ahead. According to data, the global veterinary rapid test kits market is set to grow significantly in the coming years, and some start-ups are riding the wave with fast pet genetic testing for a range of medical conditions.
From cameras that let people monitor and interact with their pets remotely to activity trackers that keep a tab on pets’ fitness and health, innovative gadgets are making life a lot easier for pet parents. Many of these devices, for example, are designed for busy people who can’t stay with their fur friends 24/7, helping address separation anxiety and keep pets entertained all day.
Gone are the days when having pets meant compromising on home aesthetics. Interior design has found many ways to blend style with pet functionality. Imagine flooring that stands up to the pitter-patter of paws and the occasional mess, like carpets with spill-proof technology. Even furniture has gotten a pet-friendly makeover, with more resilient fabrics designed to withstand furry friends (and kids).
Feel good after a massage? Well, you’re not alone: pets might enjoy one too. According to experts, holistic health is rapidly expanding into pet care, including natural remedies and alternative therapies. For example, veterinary acupuncture is already used for a wide variety of conditions in dogs and cats, like back pain, feline asthma, and more.
