There are 3 key reasons why you are having a hard time finding cat food on store shelves, according to this expert.
AMES, Iowa - There’s a cat food shortage, and an Iowa State University professor says COVID-19 supply chain issues are to blame.
Specifically, supply chain professor Jonathan Phares points to the shortage of meat used in cat food.Most pet adoptions saw a spike and dropoff. Cats, however, continue to be adopted at the same rate as their pandemic highs. “What we know in supply chains is that small changes have big impacts, and they can be very hard to recover from because demand doesn’t decrease,” Phares said.He notes online pet retailers like Chewy have done away with aluminum packaging to fight the cat food shortage.
