Cat Litter Market Trends
Increasing Pet Humanization
The shift from pet 'ownership' to pet 'parenting' has been a crucial trend in the market studied, particularly in developed countries. About one-third of the households in developed countries own a pet. According to a survey by the American Pet Products Association, there was a significant rise in cat population in the United States, from 73 million in 2000 to about 220 million in 2021. This concept of pet humanization led to an increase in health consciousness and generated a demand for pet products, such as cat litter. Along with this, the growing human-animal bond augments the consumers' willingness to spend more money on their pets. This is a clear indicator of people's inclination toward buying more products (like cat litter), ensuring their pets' health and sanitation.
According to the Brazilian Association of the Industry of Pet Products (Abinpet), there were around 27.1 million cats in Brazil in 2021 which increased from 25.6 million in 2020. This growth in the population of pet cats and the increase in the number of multi-cat households are the factors driving the demand for cat litter. In addition, it is becoming easier to take care of cats with the introduction of efficient products in the market. Therefore, self-cleaning cat litter helps to maintain the cat's hygiene, despite the time constraints of the cat's owner. Thus, the increasing number of pets and pet owners worldwide and the increased per capita income facilitated pet humanization. This factor is expected to drive the market for sanitation products, like cat litter, among health-conscious pet owners.

Along with this, due to the increasing number of cat owners in the region, the region continues to be the leading market.
