A paw cleaner for tidying up after outdoor adventures. Use the gentle rubber brush head to scrub the antibacterial, foaming, no-rinse solution on their paws, wipe it off with a towel, and let them loose. No more dirty toe beans!
Promising reviews: "This foam is a game changer! My Labs tolerated the wipes on their feet, but this foam and applicator make cleaning faster and easier. The applicator is soft, doesn't get caught on paw pads or fur, and leaves the pads clean and soft. Have a paper towel handy, as so much dirt is removed with just one pump. Amazing product!" —Ron R."I wanted something that would clean my baby's paws after our walks because I didn't want germs or dirt coming into the house. It smells great, it works well, and I can see that the rubber part doesn't bother my doggy! It's super easy to use and I use to keep her paws clean and my house clean! 10/10 especially for the price point!" —ThiaPrice: $6.24+ (available in three pack sizes)
A ChomChom pet hair remover that's so good at rolling up fur, one reviewer calls it "witchcraft." It works on many surfaces, from couches and pet beds to clothing and car seats, all without single-use sticky tape. That means you can use it over and over again, no matter how much your pet sheds.
Promising review: "I've had pets for the better part of my 34 years, and I've been exclusively responsible for the care of two cats and a Shiba for the past decade or so. Hair is always a battle in our house. We go through obscene amounts of lint rollers and vacuum often, but it never seems to do the trick. I was skeptical ordering this. Sounded too good to be true, especially for the price of like two triple lint roller packs. But lo and behold, it is magic. Super easy to use, super easy to empty out, and takes a fraction of the time that a lint roller does. More efficient than a vacuum. And no waste? Better for the environment? What in the actual witchcraft is this? How have I been around animals for decades and never used this? I'm pretty mad, to be honest. Not at this product, but at the fact that I did not discover it sooner." —Bethany GarciaPrice: $24.99 (available in two colors)
A rubber broom if you need to cover more surface area than the roller and want a multipurpose tool. This broom also removes human hair, debris, and paper from floors and carpets — without sending it all over the place, meaning you can sweep deeply and quickly. It even has a built-in squeegee so you can clean windows, showers, and the like.
A stain and odor remover spray so it's like accidents never happened. The spray is safe to use around little ones (the human *and* animal kind) and on all surfaces. It even works on human accidents, according to one reviewer, and deeeeep residual odor issues.
Promising reviews: "Our dog has diabetes and has accidents from time to time. This is the BEST product I've tried for this issue. ABSOLUTELY removes stains and odor from the carpet...just put it on my monthly Subscribe & Save for delivery every few months. Don't hesitate...this product is the BEST!!" —Christine J. Warren"This is a very good urine destroyer and rug cleaner. I have a cat that's been having problems and this really helped get rid of the smell and stain. I got the spray and it worked better than anything else I have ever used. It's easy to use and the directions they give you on the bottle really help make sure that you are using it properly and effectively. I recommend it." —A Syracuse nativePrice: $20.39+ (available in two sizes and two scents)
A UV blacklight flashlight so you can play urine detective if you smell the stink but can't quite sniff out (or see) its location. When it's dark, shine the flashlight and investigate the spots that need cleaning.
Promising reviews: "I've been using this light for a few years now. I will never be without one. We rescue cats and have many of all ages. Accidents, and not accidents, happen. This light is a game changer as a cleaning aid. It's lightweight, comfortable to hold and only uses 3 AA batteries. It is still going strong after constant use all this time. It's a tuff little light. Gives a secret glimpse into what our naked eyes can't see. Beware, its gross! It has been a very helpful tool that I've used daily for pet urine detection and for general cleaning. I will buy again for sure." —Rick"This light works fantastic on carpets. I have a portable carpet cleaner so at night I flash the light and the urine is easy to find and cleans up beautifully with the Shark portable carpet cleaner. I should have bought this light years ago. I didn't realize how many urine spots there were because you can't see them but you can certainly smell it. I have wood floors also but it's hard to detect urine with the light because the floors are antique and there are imperfections in the wood that light up differently." —JCPrice: $12.99
A two-layer litter mat that catches the crumbs your cat drags out of the litter box before they leave a trail throughout the house. The soft honeycomb top layer allows litter to fall through, and the bottom layer catches the excess, so that all you have to do is pour it out.
Promising review: "I've tried other litter mats but none were successful until this product. It has truly reduced the litter tracking by roughly 90% — and I say that with honesty. I'm so impressed. What's also great is that although there is the opening to dump the litter to the trash can, I can just as easily vacuum it up because the catch holes are big enough that there is no block to catch it all in its entirety - a nice efficiency. 10/10 highly recommend this mat. It holds a lot of litter at a time and is a great value for the investment." —JyliePrice: $13.99+ (available in two sizes and three colors)
A bag of cat litter one reviewer raved about so much to their friends that they're now dubbed "the cat lady." It's designed to minimize dust and tracking, form hard clumps, and control odor — whether you have one or several kitties.
Promising review: "I blame this litter for branding me among people I know as 'the cat lady' because I rave about it. It's almost completely dust-free, controls odors better than anything else I've tried, and clumps great — all that with no noxious perfume smells and at a fantastic price!" —Ryan BPrice: $11.99+ (available in three sizes)
A stainless-steel water fountain because cats tend to love running water. And it keeps ~my~ cats hydrated — one drinks from the spout's flow, while the other prefers the pool that forms at the top. It's easy to fill and clean, so that keeps the people who have to maintain it (me and my bf) happy.
Promising reviews: "I have three of these that I bought seven months ago, and I love them. We have six cats and seven dogs so we change the filters more often than most, but they stay reasonably clean between uses. Especially considering what dogs will find to eat in the yard... They come apart easily and I throw the metal parts in the dishwasher to sanitize them. I live in Tucson, Arizona and our water is hard. These have held up amazingly and the hard water spots come off early. They are super quiet, even when they run out of water (my older fountain would make a horrendous screeching sound when it was too low). I would definitely recommend, as they are a great value for the price." —Rosie H."I love the stainless-steel drinking fountain. My cats definitely seem to be drinking more water as their little noses are more wet. It has a very sleek appearance and maintains a good water level for a few days without needing to be refilled. My only issue, and this is me being nit-picky is I wish I would have purchased the one with the window on the bowl so you can visibly see the water level and when it needs to be refilled. However, that being said you can tell when the water level is getting low by the sound and the distance the water falls from the top into the bowl. Stays clean and very functional." —Beth SuttonPrice: $26.98+ (available in two colors and one bundle with replacement filters)
A machine-washable faux-fur donut bed that provides the perfect shape — and a comfy, cozy surface, of course! — for your furry friend to curl up in. So your pet just might hog less of your bed at night — or at least have another place to relax beyond your laptop.
A pet carrier so small animals can tag along and get some fresh air, even if they can't make the whole trip on their own lil' legs. You can keep them close, warm, and safe (it comes with a safety lock) while showing them all the sights from your pouch.
A space bubble backpack for guinea pigs, bearded dragons, hedgehogs, and other small animals who, like Bubble Boy, have been sheltered indoors and are desperate to get out there and see what all the fuss is about. The ventilated bubble gives them a view of their surroundings and helps you transport them wherever you're going.
A nail clipper so you can protect your furniture *and* yourself from sharp claws. Made for cats, rabbits, puppies, and other small animals, the stainless-steel blades ensure easy trimming and long-lasting sharpness.
Promising review: "Excellent kitty nail trimmers! The material on the nail trimmers was soft, making them very comfortable to handle. My cat does not love getting his nails trimmed, but these trimmers made the process quick and easy. I was able to trim all his nails in under five minutes! These nail trimmers are a must-have! I looked at other nail trimmers on Amazon and in stores, and these were the best price for such a high-quality item. I have recommended these nail trimmers to my cat-mom friends and family." —LexiPrice: $6.99
A cat brush that might make brushing more enjoyable for your cat (see: not my cat) but will 100% make brushing more enjoyable for the owner (see: me). *Another* beloved cat product on this list that I own, its genius design lets me clean the hair off the needles with the click of a button and a single finger swipe.
Promising reviews: "This brush works great. My cat really loves it. She has medium length hair. The softer bristles remove excess hair, don't hurt the cat and the push button clean off is easy. Feels like a durable brush." —W G Thompson"I love this brush! One of my cats is getting older and bathing less and the other deals with skin sensitivities this time of year. It helps a lot with shedding, dandruff and allergens. Plus, the cats love it! They are happy while I brush them and they're not scared of it at all. Feels well made and helps me maintain my short haired cats." —GusPrice: $14.99+ (available in five colors)
A puzzle ball to work out your pupper's noggin and energy, without requiring too much of *your* energy and attention. What a treat! Just insert up to a cup of kibble or treats through the holes, and let it rip. And speaking of ripping, one reviewer said this is the only toy his dog doesn't destroy.
Promising reviews: "My dog loves this toy and it keeps him mentally engaged. It's much quieter than similar puzzle toys, so I don't mind when he uses it while I'm working or relaxing. Durable and easy to refill." —Cabooklover"My Jack Russell L O V E S this thing. He has a habit of attacking the throw rug in front of my front door when I leave for work. This takes his attention away from me leaving and he doesn't do it anymore. I just give him half his food for breakfast and put the rest in this and not only is he no longer inhaling his food without chewing, he is eating slower and occupied when I leave. WIN WIN!" —TriciaPrice: $7.99+ (available in two colors and six other styles)
Or! A touch-activated ball for treating your dog (and yourself) to a toy that rolls and bounces like it has a mind of its own. With two modes, the ball turns on when your dog bites or touches it, though it's not meant for heavy chewers.
A cat-shaped motion-activated laser because lasers are just as fun for the pet parent as it is for the cat — speaking from experience. And imagine not being in charge! When the smart sensor detects your cat, the laser activates for 15 minutes, sending your cat running, jumping, and pawing. Their hunting skills will be on full display for your entertainment, with no work by you.
A fleece, nonslip, machine-washable foraging mat so you can hide treats for your little critter to find, whether they're a bunny, guinea pig, mouse, chinchilla, hamster, or ferret! Stuff the carrot or hide snacks between the flower petals, and your pet will ~hop to it~ and be occupied until it's nice and full.
A colorful swinging play set giving your flying friend a hanging playground (and literally, who doesn't want that). They can flap their wings from a colorful wooden swing to an equally colorful wooden ladder — while getting all that good stuff, like physical and mental stimulation. They'll surely squawk all about it.
*And/or* a birdie basketball hoop for your living dinosaur who knows how to slam dunk (and if this is the case, I request video proof immediately). Featuring a plastic ball chained to the backboard with a mirrored surface and a basket that's closed on the bottom, your wannabe MVP will give "air ball" a whole new meaning.
A Feliway calming diffuser that can help chill your cat and reduce signs of stress — spraying, crying, scratching, fighting, and the like. Just plug it in, and for 30 days and up to 700 square feet in the home, it emulates the pheromones cats release when they're comfy and happy. Just know it might take some time for your cats to receive the message.
A ThunderShirt so your pup feels safe and cuddled during storms, fireworks, travel, and other anxiety-inducing events. Wrap this lightweight and machine-washable vest around your baby, and it'll apply gentle calming pressure to their torso, like swaddling an infant or a comforting hug.
Or this calming hoodie because it's basically like an anti-anxiety headband for your animal who hates loud noises or stressful situations (and you know what, same). Just put it on your pet's neck, place their ears down to cover their ear canals, and then stretch the soft two-layer fabric onto their ears.
Promising reviews: "My 9-month-old poodle/chi doesn't miss a trick. A dog barks on TV and she's ready to fight it. I was so nervous for the 4th. But, between a ThunderShirt and this lil' hoodie - OMG, she was OUT! like she slept thru the night. It was amazing. Lately when she's too hype I pop this on her and she immediately chills out, ike even faster than when I just pick her up and carry her around…which I do probably too much. This hoodie is amazing." —Amazon Customer"The material is soft and great quality. Our dog hates anything wrapped around her but this seemed to calm her down a bit." —IrishRumjobPrice: $9.99+ (available in four sizes and five colors)
A purring pillow for moments when your cat is in need of some soothing and self-care. When they're anxious or stressed, they just have to cuddle or squeeze the plushy to activate two minutes of purring.
Promising review: "I work at a shelter and frequently get bottle babies without a mom. This little plushie is perfect to comfort them. The battery life is amazing, the size is perfect for little kittens, and it's easy to disassemble, wash, and put back together." —Amazon CustomerPrice: $10.26+ (available in two colors/animals as well as non-purring options)
A 360-degree Furbo pet camera so you can not only have peace of mind when you're not home but also so your pet can feel connected and less alone, by talking to them through the mic or shooting them treats through the dispenser. If you have the cat version like me, there's even a feather toy attached on top to get your cat's attention.
A wishbone flavored with real bacon, chicken, or peanuts — plus a limited duck edition — designed to clean your dog's teeth, be long-lasting, *and* be tough enough to survive intense chewers. Whether you have a loud little yapper or a hound who never realizes how big they are, there's a bone made just for them.
Promising reviews: "Our four-month-old pup absolutely loves this bone. He was chewing everything in the house before we bought him this and it definitely has made a huge difference! He sleeps with it, plays with it and it keeps him entertained! He has so many bones/toys and this is by far one of his favorites. Highly recommend." —Alyssa Weisberg"This is our second Benebone wishbone. Third Benebone total (fish is good but not her favorite). Our redbone coonhound mix loves it. She goes to town on them when we get them each time. We had to replace out first because she chewed enough to make it dangerous. The Benebone site has a great guide as to when it should be replaced. Bacon was great. Trying duck now and she's very much loving it. Large is perfect for our 52-pound girl." —MariannaPrice: $10.02+ (available in five sizes, four flavors, three-packs, and a variety pack)
