Just as in our own lives, there’s a considerable amount of unavoidable waste in the lives of our pets. Food packaging and poop bags (not even the compostable ones are totally safe) are among the more necessary avenues of waste creation in the pet-o-sphere, along with the more optional arenas of doggie clothing collecting and toy destroying.
There are myriad ways in which brands can approach sustainability and, thankfully, plenty of them have action plans — from producing locally to sourcing upcycled materials. We rounded up seven products in the latter camp — jackets, beds, toys, and more all repurposed and reimagined from recycled plastic. Go forth and help your pup sleep with a clean conscience — on an eco-filled bed, naturally.

Save on the litter with color-changing tech that helps you better care for your cat.
