Industry observation from Global Pet Expo 2026 shows that sustainable and clean formulas are the most important trend for hamster, rabbit and parrot snacks. Consumers in Europe and North America prefer small pet snacks with no preservatives, single natural ingredients and biodegradable packaging.Based on the physiological characteristics of rodents and birds, major brands keep launching functional treats: herb chew sticks specially for rabbits, freeze-dried fruit & vegetable snacks for hamsters, additive-free flower & fruit foraging snacks for parrots gain great popularity.
Surveys show that more than 62% overseas pet owners actively check the origin of raw materials. Natural snacks without artificial pigments and sweeteners own stronger premium capacity. Besides, upcycled food materials (edible fruit and vegetable scraps for snacks) become an innovation direction for European and American brands, balancing pet health and environmental concepts, which helps foreign trade brands build differentiated product lines.
