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 gram by +33.3% 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
“Preis wie vorher die 10 kg. Wie lässt sich dies rechtfertigen?", fragte uns ein erzürnter Konsument. Aber nicht nur beim 10-kg-Sack wurde der Inhalt reduziert: Statt 400 g sind es jetzt 300 g, statt 3 kg nur noch 2,5 kg und eben statt 10 kg nur noch 7 kg. Was sagt Fressnapf dazu?”
