Pets Per Household
Pets Per Household
This week’s visualization uses pet population data from World Population Review to compare dogs and cats relative to household counts. The AI-assisted version focuses on 26 countries with 2025 Eurostat household estimates; pet-count years are unspecified, so this is a mixed-year comparison of animals per household, not the percentage of households owning pets.
My Visualization
This visualization compares pets per household across countries, making differences in the relative numbers of dogs and cats easy to explore.
