TikTok Pets and Animals Hashtag Performance Data
To get the best reach in the Pets & Animals niche on TikTok, you should balance broad tags like #dogsoftiktok with highly specific ones like #cutekitten. This week's sample of 81 posts shows an average of 14,805,058 views and a median engagement rate of 12.58%, but these figures describe existing high-performing posts rather than guaranteeing future views. Do not use all of these hashtags at once: instead, choose a few that directly match your content. ContentScout analyzed this data to show you exactly how each hashtag performs, from niche labels to massive trends.
ContentScout's own analysis: we sample real public posts matching pets & animals search terms on TikTok and score them by how much engagement they're getting relative to how recently they were posted. Hashtags are ranked by the average views of the posts using them, not by how often they appear. The numbers describe those posts, they don't promise results.

Questions, answered.
How is this hashtag performance measured?+
This data is measured by analyzing a sample of 81 real public TikTok posts in the Pets & Animals niche this week. We calculate the average views and median engagement rate for every post that features a specific hashtag.
Are these view counts a guarantee of performance?+
No, these numbers are descriptive rather than predictive. They show the average performance of the sampled posts that used the tag, but using the hashtag does not guarantee your post will achieve the same reach.
How do these hashtag rankings compare to previous weeks?+
We do not have a prior run to compare against yet because this is the first time this page has compiled and displayed this data.
Should I use broad hashtags or specific ones?+
A healthy strategy uses a mix of both. Broad tags like #dogsoftiktok appear on 30 posts in our sample, while highly specific tags like #cutekitten appear on just 3 posts but boast a high 15.43% median engagement rate.
