Global Companion Animal Pharmaceuticals Market – Overview
A companion animal differs from an assistive animal in that it does not receive any specific training to help a person with a disability. Instead, companion animals provide humans with companionship, entertainment, emotional support, and other functions that humans need from animals. Veterinarians who specialize in companion animals can perform a range of medical services, including treating injuries and illnesses, performing surgeries, administering vaccines, and prescribing medications. They are also responsible for euthanizing animals when necessary. The owners of companion animals are responsible for the animal’s well-being, actions, and care. When choosing a companion animal, it is essential to consider the owner’s lifestyle, budget, and ability to provide proper care throughout the animal’s life. Animal health products, such as feeds, are the most commonly used products for animal healthcare, and this market includes pharmaceuticals and vaccines that improve the health and welfare of animals. Animals obtain nutrition from these products. In recent years, the number of people who own and spend money on companion animals has increased, and pet owners now spend more money per pet than in the past. Pet owners prioritize their pet’s health and wellness and expect them to live a healthy life.

Impact of COVID-19 on Global Companion Animal Pharmaceuticals Market
COVID-19 pandemic had a dual impact on the global companion animal pharmaceuticals market.
