| Posted By: cuppajane Posted On: Jun 23, 2005 Views: 878 | Info from Forbes.com By the Numbers: In 2002, 64 million homes, or 62% of all U.S. households, had a pet, up from 52 million in 1988. That adds up to: 65 million dogs 78 million cats 26 million small animals and reptiles 17 million birds 192 million fresh and saltwater fish According to the Census Bureau, there are just 72 million children under the age of 18 in America. Pet spending in the U.S. is estimated at $34 billion this year, up 68% net of inflation over the past decade. It's an industry apparently immune to recession and, though once thought to be mature, it is now expected to grow more than 6% a year for years to come. Already its sales dwarf those of toys ($20 billion) and candy ($24 billion). |
