During this period in Ningbo, Zhejiang, pet grooming, boarding, and other services are in short supply, and the pet economy is continuing to heat up with the Chinese New Year approaching. In the early morning, many "furry children" are waiting in line at a pet facility in downtown Ningbo for baths, grooming, and styling to welcome the New Year. The entire pet grooming and styling process takes about 2 hours, and it is recommended to make appointments one or two days in advance on regular days, but one week in advance before the holidays, with prices increasing by 50% to 100%. Pet boarding is also very popular, with room rates ranging from 88 yuan to 288 yuan per day, including pet walking and interactive services to meet different needs. The manager of a pet facility stated, "Normally, we have about 20-50% occupancy, but during the Spring Festival, even if you book in advance, we are fully booked."
