What is the Pet Electrolyte trend?
Pet Electrolyte: Pet food brands are releasing hydration-focused drinks and meal supplements for dogs and cats. These are electrolyte-rich products that ensure pets are intaking enough fluids throughout the day. These products can be served on their own or as additions to regular meals.
Insight
The consumer insight behind the Pet Electrolyte trend
Many pet owners simply feed their pets a few regular meals per day with provided drinking water and occasional treats, but not as many owners invest in dietary supplements or products purely for nutritional benefits. While some owners do, others take a passive approach, often due to busy lives. In order to ensure pets are ingesting more healthy diets with balanced nutrients, including hydration, brands are releasing convenient products for pet owners that do not intrude on time constraints.
