April 11 marks National Pet Day, which celebrates our furry friends, and the joy they bring into our lives. Founded in 2006 by Colleen Paige, an animal enthusiast, National Pet Day is a day we remember to save and help animals who are sheltered by donating and adopting pets who may need a home.

 

Health Benefits For Pet Owners

 

As much as pets are adorable and entertaining to have, there have been many health benefits linked to having a pet:

 

Reduces Stress and Lowers Blood Pressure

Pets help lower stress levels. Studies show that interacting with animals can decrease cortisol, a stress-related hormone, and even lower blood pressure, offering a calm presence in their owners’ lives.

 

Enhances Social Support and Reduces Loneliness

Animals reduce feelings of loneliness and boost social support. Owning a pet can increase feelings of companionship, reducing loneliness and enhancing overall mood. This is particularly true for those living alone, as pets provide both company and a way to meet new people.

 

Improves Children’s Emotional and Social Skills

Children benefit emotionally and socially from pets. Research funded by NIH and Mars Corporation found that pets could help children develop better social skills and reduce behavioural problems. This is especially noticeable in children (and adults) with disabilities such as autism and ADHD.

 

Encourages Physical Activity

Pets encourage physical activity. Dog owners, in particular, tend to engage in more physical activity than non-owners, as walking a dog is part of the daily routine. This added exercise is good for heart health and overall well-being.

 

Boosts Heart Health

Owning pets may improve heart health. Owning a pet, especially a dog, is linked to a lower risk of cardiovascular disease. Pet owners have been found to have lower resting heart rates and lower cholesterol levels, contributing to a healthier heart.

 

Apps And Gadgets For PetCare

 

Tech has played a major role in making pet care more efficient and accessible for everyone. For those who are not able to own pets, there are robot pets, and apps where you can even own and take care of a virtual pet. The opportunities to have a furry friend are endless, and below are 10 apps and gadgets that may be useful:

Simply attach a Tile to your pet’s collar and the Tile app lets users ring it if close by – or view its last seen location on the free app.

Cats eat a couple of times a day, from early morning until late at night but you can’t always be around to give them the correct amount of food. The Catit PIXI Vision Smart Dry Feeder keeps an accurate log of your cat’s eating pattern so you can schedule their meals to match their appetite.

No more leaving kibble out all day for it to get stale, attract insects and deter your kitty away from their food. This automatic dry cat food feeder audio and camera allows you to record a personalised message to call your cat when food is being served, audio so they can hear the food has been dispensed and motion detection in up to two zones so you can watch them eat (and check how much they eat of their serving).

Designed for optimal food distribution, the opaque reservoir and airtight lid keep out light and air, while the desiccant pack absorbs any moisture.

The feeder can be controlled via Wi-Fi and can use the free Catit PIXI SmartApp (available on the App Store and Google Play) to plan your cat’s meals, watch live, record for later and set motion detection from anywhere. Automatic recording requires MicroSD card (max. 256 GB, not included).

Just follow the simple instructions for the necessary fields and you can have all the information in your pocket, at your disposal at any moment, for as long as you need.

About Tuft Global

 
Tuft is a revolutionary PetTech company that offers a unique SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) solution and pet marketplace, beginning with the pet grooming industry. Founded in June 2021, Tuft aims to transform the traditional process of finding and booking pet groomers by providing an innovative app-based platform.

The core objective of Tuft is to simplify and streamline the pet grooming experience for both dog owners and pet groomers. The company addresses the challenges and inefficiencies associated with the conventional methods (pen & paper) of scheduling grooming appointments in the industry. By leveraging technology, Tuft offers a convenient and user-friendly SaaS solution that connects dog owners directly with pet groomers’ calendars.

Tuft allows dog owners to easily locate local groomers in their area through its marketplace and book appointments at their convenience. The platform integrates features that enable pet owners to manage their pet’s grooming needs efficiently, including pet details, health information, and coat care. This comprehensive approach provides a holistic experience and simplifies the grooming process for pet owners, saving them time and effort.

Moreover, Tuft offers a powerful business management system for pet groomers, serving as a SaaS solution. The platform helps groomers manage their appointments, save administrative time, and reduce no-shows. By leveraging Tuft’s scheduling and payment management features, groomers can run their businesses more efficiently and effectively. Tuft’s marketplace also brings increased visibility to groomers, allowing them to reach a broader customer base and generate new business opportunities.

Since its launch, Tuft has achieved significant milestones and garnered notable results. The company has gotten over £350,000 in investment, demonstrating the confidence and support it has received from investors who recognize the potential of its SaaS-based solution. Additionally, Tuft has successfully onboarded dog groomers nationwide and attracted more than 23,000 dog owners to its platform. These numbers highlight the growing adoption and popularity of the app and marketplace among both service providers and pet owners.

Tuft’s unique business model and approach have made it a strong competitor within the industry. By offering an all-inclusive monthly package instead of a traditional subscription model, Tuft provides transparency and simplicity to pet groomers, making it an attractive choice in the market. This approach sets Tuft apart from its competitors and establishes its position as an economical and inclusive SaaS solution and marketplace within the pet grooming industry. In addition to its growth and accomplishments, Tuft is expanding its reach beyond the United Kingdom, and Spain aiming to become a global leader in the pet grooming industry. The company has made connections with significant players in Mexico, showcasing its ambition and commitment to serving a broader market.

Overall, Tuft’s innovative SaaS solution, user-friendly app, and marketplace approach have positioned it as a disruptive force in the pet grooming industry. By solving the challenges associated with the fragmented nature of the industry and delivering tangible results for both pet owners and groomers, Tuft is revolutionizing the way grooming appointments are scheduled and managed. Tuft brings convenience, efficiency, and unity to all stakeholders involved in the pet grooming experience.

About Pet Media Group

 
The Swedish startup Pet Media Group, Europe’s largest network of pet rehoming sites, was established in 2016 after co-Founders Axel and Eyass saw that the huge online pet rehoming sector was yet to be modernised across Europe. Millions of pets are rehomed each year throughout Europe, yet a number of nations lacked the digital infrastructure to help breeders connect with new owners safely.

Pet Media Group was founded to bridge that gap, by bringing a technologically enlightened approach to Europe’s pet rehoming sites. Pet Media Group took over Pets4Homes, the UK’s largest pet rehoming site, in 2019 and has since made significant strides in the use of technology to safeguard animal wellbeing on the platform. Pet Media Group has continued expanding into new markets, acquiring pet rehoming sites in nations including MundoAnimalia in Spain, AnnunciAnimali in Italy, Puppyplaats in the Netherlands and Ifauna in the Czech Republic, in addition to a Pets4Homes and Hästnet in Sweden. 2 million European pets each year are listed on sites owned by Pet Media Group.

Pet Media Group has introduced a number of innovative measures to protect animal welfare on Pets4Homes, including introducing bank-grade ID Verification for breeders and using AI-powered image analysis to catch suspicious adverts before they are posted. More recently, Pets4Homes has introduced a Puppy Protection Programme (which applies to all animals rehomed on the platform), including a pioneering Pet Health Guarantee, which allows site users to claim a full refund if an animal rehomed through Pets4Homes becomes critically ill within six months of being rehomed. This high-tech approach to animal safety has seen Pet Media Group go from strength to strength, as now, 1 million pets per year equating to, roughly one-third of all puppies in the country, are rehomed through Pets4Homes.

About Scooch

 
Scooch is a one-stop personalised pet health platform with a mission to take the guesswork out of pet care.

Scooch was born with Baris Ozaydinli, the founder’s love & affection for his best furry friend, Rio and frustration with the pet health industry after selling his personalised human wellness tech start-up, Fitwell. Rio was a Covid puppy like millions around the world. Baris quickly realised that pet parenting is mainly guesswork and that pets can’t tell you about their feelings. He also experienced first-hand that the pet health industry is reactive, old school and not built for the new generation of pet parents. He realised he can use his 26 years of experience in human wellness tech, personalisation and consumer products and create a personalised healthcare platform for pets.

Scooch is an AI-powered platform that enables pet parents to identify potential conditions and health problems through a quick online check-up, get personalised recommendations and propriety formulated & vet approved treatments, chat with the AI bot for quickly triaging issues, have 24/7 access to tele-vet for further assistance and track their health. Scooch offers treatments for most common dog health problems from Allergy & Itching, Anal Glands, Joints & Mobility to Calming, Digestive Issues and Dental care. Scooch was founded in London in 2021, raised £1M pre-seed and achieved explosive 13X growth in 2023 already helping thousands of dogs in the UK.

About K9 Nation

 
K9 Nation is helping dog owners live their best lives with their dogs. Our mission is to create a holistic platform that fosters a thriving community for dog owners and enthusiasts alike. We understand the unique bond between humans and their canine companions, and our app is tailored to enhance the lives of both pets and their owners.

Our journey began in 2017 when founder Becky got her first dog, Buddy. Becky quickly began to understand the challenges of pet ownership, including a lack of centralised resources, difficulties in finding pet-friendly places, and limited avenues for pet-related interactions and support. With a background in legal tech, Becky set out to try and fill this gap in the market. Whilst working full-time and bootstrapping the business, an early MVP was built to bring the vision to life and then in March 2020 K9 was successful in raising its first investment.

The primary problem K9 set out to solve was to bridge this gap and create an integrated platform where dog owners could connect, access valuable information, and enrich their dogs’ lives in various ways. K9 Nation Limited envisioned a single hub for pet owners to explore pet-friendly locations, discover new walking routes, seek expert advice on training and healthcare, share experiences, and engage with a like-minded community.

Having raised £230k in pre-seed funding to date, we have delivered two market test products in our bid to understand what it is dog owners need and want. With over 11,000 downloads, we are now confident in the vision for our go-to-market product.

We currently have an open investment round to raise funds to build the next version of the product and take it to market with plans for rapid growth. We also have a pending Innovate UK application for a feasibility study to undertake a project to explore the opportunities within Open AI/ Chat GPT. We are looking to create a new framework for community-led platforms which allows us to model open-sourced data based on community input and interaction.

Looking ahead, we are excited about the future prospects for K9 Nation Limited. We are looking to harness the power of emerging AI technology and apply this to the pet tech sector. Our aim is to continue to build a product that creates an engaged dog owner community worldwide and delivers personalised experiences for dog owners and their dog’s individual needs.

We strive to create high-quality products that will offer your cat the best possible quality of life, ranging from food and delicious treats to toys that keep them active and stimulated. To achieve our mission of providing convenient, uncompromising cat care, we added to our already thriving selection of toys, litter, furniture, and food and developed the Catit PIXI range, an award-winning collection of innovative care products and smart pet technology.

Named after our office rescue cat Pixi, this range is tailored to a cat’s exacting standards and allows pet parents to maintain a high level of care for their feline friend, even when they’re juggling a busy schedule. The core aim of the Catit PIXI range is to help owners look after their cats while they’re away from home, meaning your cat’s all-important daily routine is not interrupted by their owner being delayed at work or on a weekend trip away. So, no matter how busy you get, you can rest assured knowing that they have access to fresh, clean water 24/7, and can continue with their daily feeding routine (with properly measured portions to prevent binging).

Our smart feeders also eliminate the need to find a pet sitter, as well as those 5:00am wake-up calls from hungry cats demanding their breakfast! Not only this, but Catit PIXI products are designed to blend into any home décor, allowing owners to enjoy high-tech cat care solutions without compromising on style. These carefully chosen designs include timeless pastel colours, replaceable stainless steel and plastic components, and fun finishing touches like cat ears and whiskers. This collection began with the Catit PIXI Smart Fountain and two automatic dry and wet food feeders, and since launching two years ago, the range has evolved and gone from strength to strength. In fact, the Catit PIXI Smart Dry Feeder — which uses the connected app to dispense correctly timed and portioned dry food — was featured on The Gadget Show in March 2022.

The range has since expanded to include the Catit PIXI Smart Mouse Camera, allowing owners to keep a close eye on their cat while away from home, and even speak to them if they suspect their cat may be stressed out. What’s more, we are growing the collection further as we will soon be launching the Catit PIXI Vision Smart Dry Feeder, which combines all the convenience of our popular remote dry feeders with the peace of mind offered by a high-definition pet camera. With the Catit PIXI range and its free, connected app, owners can receive reminders about all of their smart products, including when to change the water fountain filter, top up the feeder reservoir, and even record special moments via the smart camera’s MicroSD card feature.” – Paul Trott, UK Marketing Manager
