The global Pet Care industry has experienced notable developments over the past 48 hours, with market momentum remaining strong despite ongoing challenges in supply chains and regulatory complexity. Industry leaders report that pet calming products, valued at 17.45 billion dollars in 2025, are expected to expand rapidly with a compounded annual growth rate of over 6 percent, fueled by increased pet ownership, premiumization, and the trend toward natural wellness solutions for animals. Calming chews and oral supplements are the dominant categories, comprising nearly 35 percent of sales this year, and tech-enabled items such as smart calming devices are gaining ground in affluent regions.
Globally, the animal health market is estimated at 55.8 billion dollars for 2025, with companion animals constituting about 63 percent of U.S. sales. Over 967 million pets, including 522 million dogs and 445 million cats worldwide, are driving demand for advanced veterinary care, digital monitoring, and novel prescriptions. The past week saw industry leaders reporting a 35 percent rise in uptake of veterinary telehealth platforms, aligning with consumer demand for home-based, subscription-driven services. The trend toward natural, organic, and CBD-based products continues, with the fastest growth recorded in hemp-derived calming solutions in regions where legal barriers are lower.
Recent deals include a merger in the animal health sector, creating a portfolio covering more than 50 species and 9,000 veterinary service clients. In the UAE, government-backed conferences and incentives are expected to fuel an unprecedented 500 percent market expansion by 2025. The U.S. has seen sustainability-focused partnerships, with Pet Supplies Plus and Wag N' Wash recycling over 100,000 pounds of packaging in a TerraCycle collaboration, revealing industry momentum toward circular economy principles.
Supply chains remain steady for core pet food ingredients, with Northeast Asia PET prices holding at 0.85 dollars per kilogram and production rates stable, though operators in livestock and veterinary supply segments are facing longer regulatory review cycles and some material shortages. Price increases are moderate, but fragmented portfolios and high compliance costs challenge mid-market expansion.
Consumer behavior reflects a willingness to pay premiums for certified, vet-recommended, and eco-friendly pet wellness products, with record purchases projected for the approaching U.S. holiday season. Compared to previous reporting, digitalization and the entry of tech-driven startups are accelerating, while major incumbents are shifting toward recurring revenue models and service bundles to offset operational volatility. Industry leaders, such as Buddy in the wellness niche and large veterinary care networks, are responding by expanding into multi-channel sales, investing in new ingredients, and ramping up sustainability and distribution partnerships.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
