Where this sits in the taxonomy
Measured by how much sits beneath them, Pet Agility Equipment is 31th largest of the 46 categories under Pet Supplies, with 0 categories below it. Size is not correctness — a small category is the right answer when it is the right answer — but it does tell you how much of the taxonomy you are still choosing between once you pick this branch.
Using this value
Either form of this value goes in the google_product_category attribute: the numeric ID (6983) or the full path ("Animals & Pet Supplies > Pet Supplies > Pet Agility Equipment"). Both are predefined values for the same category. The ID is the sturdier of the two, because renaming any segment above this one changes the path text and leaves the number alone.
Bear in mind that google_product_category is an optional attribute. Google assigns a category automatically, and your value is treated as a signal rather than an override. When an override actually applies.
In your feed, it looks like this
Either row below is accepted. The first is the one to send.
| id | title | google_product_category |
|---|---|---|
| SKU-1001 | Your product title | 6983 |
| SKU-1001 | Your product title | Animals & Pet Supplies > Pet Supplies > Pet Agility Equipment |
This path has no comma, so an unquoted cell holds it as it stands — which is not true of every category in the taxonomy. The numeric ID, 6983, is the form that does not depend on how the file is quoted.
Easy to mix up with
These sit under the same parent and start with the same word, which is exactly when the wrong one gets picked.
Questions about Pet Agility Equipment
What is the Google product category ID for Pet Agility Equipment?
6983. The full path, "Animals & Pet Supplies > Pet Supplies > Pet Agility Equipment", is the same category written the other way. The ID is shorter, and renaming a segment above this one changes the path text while leaving the number alone.
Is anything more specific than Pet Agility Equipment available?
No. Pet Agility Equipment is a leaf of Google's taxonomy at level 3, so 6983 is the most precise value this branch offers. If it does not describe your product closely enough, the answer is a different branch, not a deeper one.
Where does Pet Agility Equipment sit in the taxonomy?
At level 3, under Pet Supplies (2). The chain from the top is Animals & Pet Supplies → Pet Supplies → Pet Agility Equipment. If your product does not belong under Pet Supplies, it does not belong here either — check the level above before going deeper.
What should I use if Pet Agility Equipment is not quite right?
Look across the rest of Pet Supplies first — there are 45 other categories at this level: Bird Supplies (3), Cat Supplies (4), Dog Supplies (5), Fish Supplies (6), Pet Apparel Hangers (6811), Pet Bed Accessories (500084), and 39 more. If none of them fits either, the problem is higher up: go back to Pet Supplies (2) and pick a different branch from there rather than settling for the closest thing on this one.
How big is Pet Agility Equipment compared with the categories next to it?
It is 31th largest of the 46 at its level, carrying 0 categories below it. A bigger category is not a better one — it just means more of the taxonomy is still open below you after you pick it.
What is the difference between Pet Agility Equipment and Pet Apparel Hangers?
