Source and evidence
Against official inflation: Eurostat HICP (AT) “products for pets and other household animals” changed +2.4% (12 months to Oct 2024). The size cut alone raises the price per kilogram by +42.9% if the shelf price stayed the same (the source recorded no prices). Every case is compared the same way in the ShrinkRadar Index.
What the source says
“…Dadurch sei Royal Canin gezwungen, die Preise zu erhöhen. Select Gold Katzenfutter "Beim Kauf in der Fressnapf-Filiale musste ich festellen: 7 kg zum selben Preis wie vorher die 10 kg. Wie lässt sich dies rechtfertigen?", fragte uns ein erzürnter Konsument.”
