Amazon Pet Day Arrives: All the Best Deals for Our Furry Friends

Amazon Pet Day is this week, May 13 and 14, and it's one of the best times of the year to nab discounted pet devices and pet-friendly technology for your home. Deals are everywhere -- but where should you start? First, check out our full pet cam FAQ to learn everything you should know about more advanced devices for our four-legged friends. Then we're rounding up some of the best pet product deals with early discounts that you can take advantage of now through May 14 (and many throughout the rest of this week). These picks in particular caught the eyes of our CNET pet owners. Note: You do not need to be an Amazon Prime subscriber to benefit from most Amazon Pet Day discounts. Petcube 360 Camera Petcube's tiny 360 cam is a strong budget option for petowners. Tyler Lacoma/CNET Pet cams can often be pricey, but this version from Petcube offers 360-degree views of your home, night vision and AI-powered pet alerts in a compact package that's very affordable -- and now, at 20% off for Pet Day, it's one of the cheapest pet tech options available for keeping an eye on your buddy. Veterinarian Joanne Fernandez, a Petcube expert, highlighted some uses I hadn't encountered. "In my veterinary practice and personal life, I've found pet cameras to be invaluable tools. Some of my clients and telemedicine clients have cameras in their living room to monitor their senior pet with mild separation anxiety," she said. "They can see if their pet is resting comfortably rather than pacing anxiously." This 1080p cam also includes two-way audio for talking and sound alerts for barking, although more advanced features do require a subscription. We've tested this cam in our homes, and we're fans of how easy it is to use.

Neakasa Self-cleaning litter boxes have a habit of being expensive but 20% off on this high-tech model makes it significantly more affordable for cat lovers who want to invest. From app controls to built-in trash bags, there's not much this smart litter box can't do. Two things in particular made us choose this discounted model. First, it's larger so even bigger, fluffier cats can use it, where many self-cleaning boxes are on the small side. Second, we've known cats who will only use an open-top litter box so it's nice seeing one when these models are usually enclosed. Furbo 360-Degree Camera Furbo's fun AI and 360-cam are a great combo. Furbo/CNET We like the expansive and often creative AI Furbo uses to give owners its best guess at what pets are doing (not always accurate, but frequently useful and sometimes hilarious). This model, at an excellent 45% off, combines that AI with a panning cam, two-way speaker and treat dispenser, available in dog and cat varieties. The trick is that, for this low cam cost, you will need to add a Furbo Nanny subscription to unlock key features, which starts at about $5.30 per month. PetSafe ScoopFree SmartSpin self-cleaning litter box kit This high-tech litter box is perfect for the refined feline. PetSafe If your cat's at home in a litter pod, this sci-fi litter box kit includes everything you need to upgrade their bathroom time, now at 28% off. In addition to the app-controlled litter box, you also get a mat, an extra pack of waste bin bags and a collection of deodorizers to clear out the air. The box is made for any kind of litter, and the app can track litter box use and even take a good guess at your pet's weight as they continue to use the box over time. Plus, as the box cleans itself, the fresh layer of litter makes it more friendly for multicat households when cats need to share a box. Petlibro Cat Water Fountain This wireless fountain doesn't have cords to chew. Petlibro Fresh water is vital for cat health, but getting them to drink it isn't always easy. This wireless water fountain recharges when plugged in and keeps water flowing for picky cats and small dogs. At 43% off, it's also quite affordable. The fountain holds 2.5 liters of water, is BPA-free, and features a stainless steel interior for easier cleaning. Also, the cordless design means there are no electrical cables to chew through. Just remember to keep it charged. PetSafe Guard GPS and Tracking Collar A digital fence collar could be just what your dog needs. PetSafe At 17% off, this rechargeable tracking collar allows you to set up to 20 different digital fences across 3/4 of an acre or more. It can also give you alerts and let you set a variety of control options, including tones, vibration and 10 levels of static shock. It's the most complete "digital fence" pet option we've seen, and now is a great time to get one. Just keep in mind that it requires a $10 monthly subscription to enable this collar. PetSafe Smart Feed Electronic Feeder PetSafe's feeder can schedule up to 12 events. PetSafe Pets on a diet or who like regular feeding times even when pet parents aren't home benefit greatly from automated feeders. At 13% off, you can save some money while shaving some pounds off your pet. It supports app scheduling that you can plan with your vet for the best health results, planning up to 12 meals and snack moments. This model caught our eye for its surprising compatibility, featuring support for Alexa plus compatibility for Apple and Android phones for remote management. It also has backup batteries to keep working when the power is out and a stainless steel design that's made to be "flip proof" (although we haven't tested that part with rambunctious dogs). Petlibro Automatic Cat Feeder with Camera This feeding station included a built-in camera for alerts. Petlibro For an even more advanced version of a pet feeder, this Petlibor option includes an 1080p cam with night vision and is 34% off. The feeder allows you to set up to 10 routines and gives you motion and sound alerts, plus two-way audio. It will also send you notifications if it detects low food levels or a food blockage. If you want to save videos of your pet chowing down, you can add a microSD card for storage (not included). Neakasa P1 Pro Pet Grooming Kit This pet grooming vac has all the attachments you need for trimming and cleanup. Neakasa If your pets get a little too shed-happy, especially in warmer weather, you may need a high-tech cleaning solution for all that fur. This Neabot Neakasa kit is one of the most complete we've seen, with five different grooming heads for the little canister vacuum, and it's now 50% off. Tools include an adjustable trimming comb, multiple pet hair nozzles and more. Plus, it's designed to be low-noise so pets don't get too anxious during use.
