This dataset is a modelled dataset, describing the mean number of cats per square kilometre across GB. The figures are aligned to the British national grid, with a population estimate provided for each 1km square. These data were generated as part of the delivery of commissioned research. The data contained within this dataset are modelled figures, based on national estimates for pet population, and available information on Veterinary activity across GB. The data are accurate as of 01/01/2015. The data provided are summarised to the 1km level. Further information on this research is available in a research publication by James Aegerter, David Fouracre & Graham C. Smith, discussing the structure and density of pet cat and dog populations across Great Britain.
According to an online survey conducted in 2024, it was estimated that 13.5 million dogs and 12.5 million cats were living in UK homes in that year. In addition, the pet population in the United Kingdom also included around 1.3 million indoor birds and 1 million rabbits. Expenditure on pets in the UK In 2021, consumers spent over 9.6 billion British pounds on pets and related products in the United Kingdom, almost double the pet expenditure levels ten years prior, when pet owners in the UK spent a total of 5.13 billion British pounds in 2011. Since dogs and cats were the most common pet animals in UK homes, dog food and cat food were also the most valuable segment in the pet market in the UK. For instance, the UK dry dog food market was valued at 576 million British pounds. Pets at Home Pets at Home is a British pet supplies retailer operating more than 452 stores in the United Kingdom. It is one of the leading pet retailers in Europe, with an annual turnover of 948 million euros in 2019. Pets at Home revenue amounted to more than 1.14 billion British pounds in 2021. Over the last decade, the British pet retailer witnessed its revenues increase every year from a figure of approximately 517 million British pounds generated in 2011.
The share of households owning a pet in the United Kingdom remained relatively stable between 2012 and 2018, hovering around an estimated percentage of 47 to 45 percent. However, pet ownership levels peaked to an unprecedented high of 62 percent in 2022, likely as a result of the coronavirus pandemic and increased time spent at home. In 2023, this figure shrank to 57 percent.
Pet ownership in the UK With more than half of UK households owning at least one pet in 2021/22, dogs and cats were the most common household pets in that year, with an estimated 13 million dogs and 12 million cats living in homes. As of 2020, the United Kingdom was the second highest-ranking European country in terms of its dog population, preceded only by Germany.
Consumer spending on pets in the UK As the pet population in the United Kingdom increased in size, so did consumer spending on pet food and pet-related products and services. Spending on pets and related products reached almost eight billion British pounds in 2020, a notable increase from a mere 2.9 billion British pounds in 2005. Among the most expensive pet-related expenditures are veterinary and pet services, which constituted almost four billion British pounds in 2020.
Non†native predators can cause great harm to natural ecosystems through competition for resources and by directly predating on native species. Domestic cats (Felis catus) predate on wild prey throughout the world and have been implicated in a number of species declines. However, in the UK, long†term, widespread research is lacking. The data provided here relate to prey returned home by pet cats in the UK over a total period of 3.5 years (ranging from one month to 3.5 years per cat). These data were collected by cat owners across the UK, noting details of the prey returned home by their cats monthly. Data were gathered upon registration regarding the age, sex, and body condition of participating cats, allowing for the analysis of the potential influence of such factors. While most cats returned 0–1 prey per month, a small minority (n = 3 cats) returned over 15 individuals monthly. It is important that true predation rates (in addition to the return rates found here) are further exp..., , , # Title of Dataset: Quantifying prey return rates of domestic cats in the UK

Two hundred and six cats, aged between 7 and 10 years, from the North-west of the UK, were enrolled in a cat aging and welfare study to determine the frequency of age-related conditions and associations with husbandry, owner observations of physical appearance, activity and behavior. This is the largest study to date of mature cats that includes data from an owner questionnaire and clinical examinations. At enrolment, owners frequently reported physical changes (53%), behavioral changes (47%), changes to eating patterns (41%), and activity changes (40%) in their mature cats. On physical examination, 45% cats were in overweight condition and 12% were obese. A heart murmur was detected in 29% cats, whilst indirect systolic blood pressure (SBP) was >160 mmHg in 5% cats. Dental disease was present in 54% cats and was associated with a matted hair coat (P = 0.01), increased sleeping (P = 0.02), absence of gray hairs (P = 0.03), and increased irritability to other pets (P = 0.04). Abnormalities were evident in 58% of cats that allowed an orthopedic examination (OE) to be performed. These cats were older than cats with a normal OE (P = 0.01), and abnormal OE findings were associated with a matted coat (P = 0.03) and increased grooming (P = 0.04). Aazotaemia was present in 10% cats, and this was associated with cats being observed to “sniff their food and then walk away” (P = 0.04). Hyperthyroidism was diagnosed in 3% cats, who were older (P = 0.02), had a leaner BCS (P = 0.02) and lesser blood creatinine concentrations (P = 0.01). Hyperthyroid cats were also more likely to have increased liver enzyme activity and increased SBP (P =

The IRAS Point Source Catalog Redshift (PSCz) Survey consists of redshifts, infrared and optical photometry, and assorted other information for 18351 IRAS sources, mostly selected from the Point Source Catalog. The survey was designed to select almost all galaxies with flux brighter than 0.595 Jy at 60 microns (µm), over the 84% of the sky with extinction small enough that reliable and complete optical identification and spectroscopy was possible. Some of the sources are not galaxies and some are multiple entries for the same galaxy as described in the reference paper. There are in total 15,411 galaxies or possible galaxies, for which redshifts are available for 14,677. The galaxies without redshift are mostly distant or at low latitude, as described in the paper. Many of these galaxies have now been observed as part of the BTP project (Saunders et al 1999, astro-ph/9909174 "The Behind the Plane Survey"), and their redshifts were to be included in future revisions of this catalog. The full catalog for the PSCz Catalog contains more than 120 parameters and is available at the CDS in the directory http://cdsarc.u-strasbg.fr/ftp/cats/VII/221/ as the files pscz.dat (18,351 sources in the main catalog) and psczcg.dat (60 additional sources close to the coverage gap). There is also a 'short' version of the catalog, psczvs.dat and psczcgvs.dat, containing 19 parameters, sufficient information for most studies. They correspond to the version 2.2. Many fields are taken directly from the IRAS Point Source Catalogue (CDS Cat. II/125). See the IRAS Explanatory Supplement (Beichman et al., 1988, NASAR, 1190, 1) for more information.

Objectives: A comparative review of the annual numbers and types of referral surgical procedures in UK cats and dogs for two years, a decade apart (2008 and 2018).Methods: Healthcare administration data at a single large referral centre in the UK were reviewed for all soft tissue surgical procedures in each study year.Results: There were 659 soft tissue surgeries across all cats and dogs in 2008, compared with 1001 in 2018. Among dogs, French Bulldog was the breed with the greatest change between the study years (2008: n = 4; 2018: n = 83, 2075% increase), rising to become the most common breed presenting in 2018. In dogs, the greatest change in frequency of surgical procedure performed was brachycephalic obstructive airway surgery (2008: n = 16; 2018: n = 131, 818.8% increase). Among cats, Ragdoll was the breed with the greatest change between study years (2008: n = 1; 2018: n = 8, 800% increase). In cats, the greatest change in surgical procedure performed was subcutaneous ureteral bypass (2008: n = 0; 2018: n = 27)Clinical Significance: The numbers, types and relevant breeds for surgical procedures performed at this single referral centre have changed considerably over this 10-year period, with much of this change linked to human preferences for extreme conformations in dogs. Considered alongside current patient presenting age and wider available population data, the current healthcare administration data may support veterinary organisations and practices with an evidence base to better meet future patient needs.
This catalog of known Galactic supernova remnants (SNRs) is an updated version of the catalogs of Galactic SNRs presented in detail in Green (1984, 1988), in summary form in Green (1991, 1996, 2004, 2009), and on the Web (versions of 1995-July, 1996-August, 1998-September, 2000-August, 2001-December, 2004-January, 2006-April, 2009-March, and 2014-May). [Note that the version published in Green (1996) was produced in 1993.] This June 2017 version of the catalog contains 295 SNRs, and is based on results published in the literature up to the end of 2016. The basic summary data included in this catalog for each SNR are its designation, position, angular size (in arcminutes), type, flux density at 1 GHz, spectral index, and any other names by which it is known. Notes on these parameters, on possible remnants not included, and on questionable SNRs that are listed in this catalog, are given in the full version of the catalog on the Web at http://www.mrao.cam.ac.uk/surveys/snrs/snrs.info.html It should be noted that there are serious selection effects which apply to the identification of Galactic SNRs (e.g., Green 1991, 2004, 2005, 2009, 2014), so that care should be taken if these data are used in any statistical studies. This version of the Green Catalog of Galactic Supernova Remnants was ingested at the HEASARC in July 2017.
