1. Pet health awareness is rising across the board.
As pets are increasingly viewed as part of the family, pet owners are investing more in their health management. According to Grand View Research, the global pet pharmaceutical market is projected to reach $25.8 billion in 2025, representing year-on-year growth of over 10%.
From deworming and joint care to anti-aging medications, pet pharmaceuticals are shifting from treatment to prevention. This means that pet health is becoming a new growth engine for the entire pet industry.
2. International Trends: Innovation and Regulation Go Hand in Hand
The US FDA recently approved an anti-aging drug for canines for clinical use, sparking heated discussion within the industry. This marks the beginning of a shift in pet pharmaceuticals towards the "biotech" realm. Meanwhile, the UK Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) is proposing price caps for pet prescription drugs to protect consumer rights.
These policies and innovations are collectively driving the standardization and diversification of the pet pharmaceutical market.
3. Domestic Trends: A New Track from Treatment to Prevention
In China, pet health products are experiencing rapid growth. According to the "2025 China Pet Industry White Paper," spending on pet medicines and healthcare now accounts for over 15% of total pet consumption, making it the fastest-growing segment.
This year, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs also updated the "Veterinary Drug Registration and Administration Measures (Trial Implementation)" to further improve the safety and quality supervision of pet medicines. Domestic brands are accelerating the development of parasite control, skin care, and nutritional supplement products to fill market gaps.
4. Export Perspective: New Opportunities for Pet Products Companies
For pet product companies like us specializing in cat litter exports, the rapid development of pet pharmaceuticals presents new opportunities for collaboration and expansion. Cat litter and pet health products are both part of the "pet care ecosystem." In future export strategies, we can explore joint promotions with health care brands, making "clean + healthy" a new selling point.
Conclusion
