Even as the economic picture improves, consumers remain cautious about spending, including in terms of the pet products they buy. Having lived up to its “recession-resistant” reputation once again, the business therefore continues to face challenges that have retailers, marketers and product developers relying more heavily than ever before on the all-important notion of pets as family. Accordingly, themes including health, function, comfort, safety, gifting, travel, and yes pet pampering are all weighing heavily on the value scale as market participants look to strike the perfect balance in pet categories across the board.

Tapping into extensive pet market report collection and analyst expertise, Pet Supplies and Pet Care Products in the U.S., 8th Edition: Pet Health and Pampering: The New Value Equation provides detailed market breakouts and insights not available elsewhere. Covering non-food pet supplies of all types and for all companion animal types, the report examines trends in flea/tick care products, cat litter, toys, rawhide chews, bedding, grooming products, supplements, clean-up products and many other product segments. Using 2009 as the base year, it charts sales since 2005 and forecasts sales through 2014; breaks the market out by animal type and product category in both the mass-market and pet specialty channels; presents dollar sales and market share for leading marketers and brands; analyzes competitive strategies and shifts; profiles top companies and market innovators; analyzes new product trends; and provides demographic and psychographic profiles of product purchasers.

Trends examined include product positioning vis-à-vis the new economy; product humanization and pet pampering; natural, organic and “green” appeals; corporate responsibly and cause marketing; celebrity marketing and licensing (here comes Martha!); pet travel and convenience products; and gift/holiday fare. Special features include an expanded discussion of pet supplies purchasing by change in economic situation and by retail channel, focusing on cross-channel shopping and shopper loyalty; and proprietary pet owner survey data collected by  focusing on the economy and on the natural/organic products segment.

Meanwhile, pet market themes including humanization, health and convenience drive the world market for pet supplies, while taking on different meanings according to level of market development. And primarily because of these trends—coupled with the ongoing expansion of major multinational pet product marketers, pharmaceutical outfits, and big-box retailers—global sales of pet care products continue to rise despite the economic times. Pet Supplies and Pet Care Products: Global Market Overview 2010 charts global sales of non-food pet products for the 2005-2009 and 2009-2014 periods, comparing sales of non-food supplies with sales of pet food and pet products overall, and providing additional 2009 breakouts by world region, marketer and distribution channel. New product trends are quantified in terms of number of product launches (reports and SKUs), which are further broken out by world region, marketer, and package tag/marketing claim. Trends in the all-important BRIC nations of Brazil, Russia, India and China are charted separately, as is the market involvement of Spectrum Brands (United Pet Group and Tetra), Canada’s Rolf C. Hagen, Hartz Mountain (owned by Japan’s Sumitomo) and leading pet market catalog/online seller Drs. Foster & Smith.

Many studies have been done over the psychology behind color. It has been proven time and time again that color does affect the way we feel. Colors can even affect the way that you perform. For example, weight lifters have been shown not to be able to lift their usual amount in pink rooms, but at the same time they can lift more in blue rooms. It isn’t that pink is like kryptonite, but the affect it has on the lifter’s mood causes him to underperform.

So, does color have an affect on appetite? Yes, many studies show that it does. So what colors should you use in your eating areas? That depends on you and which mood that you need to set to have healthy eating habits. If you are watching your weight then you are going to want to choose colors that suppress the appetite. If not, then you want colors that stimulate your appetite.

Colors that Suppress Appetite

Generally speaking, most cool colors are appetite suppressants. However, the undisputed champion of the appetite colors is blue. To the brain, blue says “That is bad for you. Don’t eat it.” Mold can have a bluish color and isn’t something we want around our food. Also colors like purple, brown, and black make us think about foods that are overripe or rotten. Think about it. Are you more likely to eat a yellow banana or a brown one? Our experiences with food colors are behind how color affects our appetites. Green stimulates the appetite for some people while suppressing it for others. Maybe some of us are thinking of ripe green vegetables while others are thinking about that greenish blue mold on a piece of bread.

Colors that Stimulate Appetite

While cool colors have a negative affect on appetite, warm colors have the opposite. Next time you are in a restaurant, take a look around you. You are going to see a lot of reds, yellows, and oranges. These colors are more likely to make you feel hungry. These colors tell our brain that the food is ripe, juicy, and/or full of flavor. This may because warm colors tend to increase the heart rate. They cause people to eat faster and to eat more.

Use Candles to Convey the Right Mood

Flameless candles are a great way to change up the mood in your eating areas. Are you watching your figure? Then perhaps something blue. Ocean blue or seashore blue is a great color that isn’t too blue. Or maybe, you are preparing a holiday feast? Then go with something warmer like burgundy or burnt orange. Or you can go with something neutral such as caramel or taupe. You can even get flameless candles set to come on at the same time each day and that will light up just as the meal is starting. Or for those hard to reach places, consider using remote control candles. Flameless candles come in just about any color imaginable, and can be the perfect accent for your kitchen or dining room.
