Cat food is food for consumption by cats. Cats have specific requirements for their dietary nutrients. Certain nutrients, including many vitamins and amino acids, are degraded by the temperatures, pressures and chemical treatments used during manufacture, and hence must be added after manufacture to avoid nutritional deficiency. The amino acid taurine, for example, which is found in meat, is degraded during processing, so synthetic taurine is normally added afterwards. Long-term taurine deficiency may result in retinal degeneration, loss of vision, and cardiac arrest.
Increasing interest in niche brands and premium products is favouring smaller and more specialist pet shops. Specialist pet shops are increasingly offering a wider range of more premium, functional and organic products so as to respond to the needs and demands of different cat owners.
With rising demand for specialist products, pet shops will continue to gain ground in categories with a focus on premiumisation. Nevertheless, Irish people are spending ever more time at work, thus having less free time for shopping.
The Americas was the major revenue contributor to the cat food market during 2016. However, due to factors such as the rise in number of cats as pets in families, pet humanization, and the introduction of wide varieties in cat foods, EMEA will account for the major shares of this market by 2021.
