Rising frequency of zoonotic, transboundary animal diseases (TADs) along with rising adoption of companion animals across the globe are few major factors propelling the market progress. For instance, according to the data published by the European Pet Food Industry: Facts and Figures 2022 report, Germany had 10.3 million dogs and 16.7 million cats in 2021. As per the same source, the percentage of German households owning at least one cat was 21%, and one dog was 19% in 2021. This shows that the adoption of cats was higher among the population than dogs. Thus, factors such as the rising pet adoption, pet insurance and the increasing developments by key market players are expected to boost the market growth. However, rising demand for portable devices for point-of-care (POC) services and high pet care costs are expected to hinder this growth.
