Is the Economy Impacting Your Pet Care?

A new survey shows you might be pinching pennies during these tight economic times, but your pets might not be feeling the budget tightening quite so much. A survey by The Goodlife Recipe(R) brand of petfood found that two-thirds of cat and dog owners aren’t checking the price sticker first when selecting their pets’ food. In addition, the survey found that:

• Two in three people agreed that natural and fresh ingredients were most important for both pets and people. However, natural ingredients ranked number one for pets while fresh ingredients ranked number one for people.

• Health is still a priority with nearly half of pet owners surveyed indicating they wouldn’t reduce spending on vet visits.

• Four out of five pet lovers surveyed said that cutting back on pet food expenditures wouldn’t be their first cutback if their budget tightened.

• Almost 60 percent of pet owners said natural ingredients and flavors are most important for pets.
