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, this report 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.

When you are considering any kind of home improvement project one of the most important considerations is the cost of the products you are using. Even though they can be purchased virtually anywhere, as with anything the prices can vary greatly. Almost everything you will need can be found at your local Lowe’s or Home Depot but you should do some online comparisons to keep them all honest. Many times you will find better deals on the internet even with shipping costs.

When buying on the internet just be sure that the vendor you are considering purchasing from has a good reputation, if using eBay check their feedback and don’t buy from anyone with excessive negative feedback. The internet is a little like the old Wild West days, anyone can pretend to be something they are not on the internet, someone can be running an operation out of their bedroom and have an online storefront that looks like a multi-million dollar company. That is not to say that some of these people aren’t reputable, just do your research and be careful.

Quality home improvement products are of course absolutely essential when it comes down to the actual project. Make sure when you are purchasing your home improvement supplies and tools that they are what you want and not what the professional contractor or sales clerk is pushing you to buy. If he or she is pushing then it probably means there is a cheaper alternative, probably a few pages ahead of the one that you are looking at in their magazine or at their store.

Generally quality products are the most important component when it comes to home improvements as you can’t improve anything without buying something better than what you currently have, now can you? Exactly! So, when purchasing your home improvement supplies, whether they are from an internet website or a local crafts shop all you need to do is make sure that they are what you want and you feel that they will be improving your home! There is no point spending money on things that are not to your taste and will not make any difference in the appearance of your home when the whole idea is to improve!

It used to be very difficult years ago to do price comparisons and find the best deals on anything, but now with the advent of the internet shopping for the best price is literally at your fingertips with your mouse and keyboard. So what are you waiting for, start surfing.

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.

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.

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.
