This May for National Pet Month, an e-commerce grocery delivery service is revealing its findings on which U.S. states are the more dog-friendly or cat-friendly.
Instacart, headquartered in California, shared its shopping data with FOX Business on Americans’ pet-related buys, and where these purchases took place.
“It’s a common observation that people tend to fall into one of two categories: being more of a cat person or being more of a dog person. With this in mind, it’s interesting to take a closer look at the ‘Cats vs. Dogs’ map created for National Pet Month,” Laurentia Romaniuk, Instacart’s trends expert, told FOX Business.

“Unsurprisingly, dogs rank as the number one pet in the U.S., with 36 states reporting higher dog food deliveries via Instacart,” she added.
Romaniuk continued, explaining how 14 states including Oregon, Washington, Minnesota and D.C., “show a preference for cats overall.”
