Ever wonder why domesticated animals seem less fierce than
their wild counterparts? Dr. Steve Tsengas, the president and CEO of OurPet’s
Company (OTCQX: OPCO), says that because our beloved cats and dogs do not
experience the harshness of nature with the threat of bigger predators, they
remain about 30% smaller than their cousins. They basically stay young forever
as immature teenagers; complete with total dependence on their parents and
occasional outbursts.
With this in mind, OurPet’s commits to developing and
marketing inventive products designed to “awaken a pet’s natural instincts”
while nurturing a relationship between pet and owner. For dogs, the company
created a line of toys that gives Fido the mental stimulation and physical
exercise he needs for healthy growth. For instance, the Buster Food Cube is a
plastic ball that owners can fill with delicious treats. The catch? The dog has
to figure out how to release those treats by rolling it around and the owner
can even increase the difficulty if needed. There’s also the Flappy® Ruffy®, a
squeak toy with flaps that simulates the feeling of caught prey to the dog.
Cats have their own feral-awakening toys too. With the Catty
Whack™, felines chase a feather wand that moves quickly and randomly while
squeaking like a mouse. This toy impersonates prey in the wild. Cats also enjoy
the Play-N-Squeak™ toy line which brings out their stalk and chase instinct
through a toy that squeaks like a mouse when handled.
Not only does OurPet’s Company develop healthy pet toys, but
it also produces feeding, storage, and waste management products that aim to
improve pet and owner lifestyles. Even more toys and products are under way
that should contribute to the company’s goal of enhancing natural
predispositions in domesticated pets and should be announced in 2016.
OurPet’s shows no sign of slowing down and says they are “at
the point to support continuous improvement in revenue growth and
profitability” which can be seen in the company’s record third quarter revenue
numbers.
