For several years, Italy has consistently ranked as the European country with the most pet birds. Last year was no exception, according to the FEDIAF report "Facts & Figures 2021." Italians also kept 8,700,000 dogs as pets in 2021 and 10,050,000 pet cats. While other nations had more dogs and cats, Italy ranked third in per capita dog ownership and fourth in cat ownership. The dog, cat and other pet food companies listed below helped provide those animals with sustenance. These companies appear in Petfood Industry’s Top Company’s Current Data.
