High competition among market players and price sensitivity among consumers are major restraints for the cat food market. The presence of a large number of players offering similar products at competitive prices can make it challenging for brands to differentiate themselves and maintain market share.

Stringent regulations and quality standards imposed by regulatory bodies can also pose a challenge for cat food manufacturers. Meeting these standards can increase production costs and limit innovation in product development, thereby restraining market growth.
