I'm not sure what the initial set of facts is,butI'm assuming that you
have any number of potentially matching quadruplets
Translog - Product -  ProductCategory - Category.

For good measure, I add

declare Superiors
   cname: String
   superiors: Set<String>
end

for defining, for each category, the more important categories: you'll
need to insert three static facts.

Doing away with all this non-declarative salience and flow you can now
make do with two  rules:

rule "insert recommendation"
when
   $tr:     Translog($trpid : pid)
   $p:      Product(pid == $trpid, $pid : pid, $price : price, $brand : brand)
   $pcat: ProductCategory(pid == $pid, $cid : cid)
   $cat:   Category(cid == $cid, cname == "pets", $cname : cname)
   not ( Recommendation( $xname: cname )
           and
           Superiors( cname == $cname, superiors contains $xname ) )
then
    insert(new Recommendation($pid, $price, $brand, $cname));
end

rule "remove low priorities"
when
    $recomm: Recommendation( $cname: cname )
    exists( Recommendation( $xname: cname )
                and
                Superiors( cname == $cname, superiors contains $xname ) )
then
    retract($recomm)
end

And you may add a low-salience background rule for extracting the results.

rule "show recomms"
salience -999
when
        $recomm : Recommendation()
then
        System.out.println($recomm);
end

Untested!
