has been conducting a project of international scope called "Pet Pain
Insight," which they describe as "the first in-depth study of the
current and future prospects for the pain medication category for cats
and dogs." As I conducted research on your question, the name of Wood
Mackenzie came up repeatedly. This firm is widely known as the leading

research and analysis, Wood Mackenzie delivers informed, authoritative
