Coming in chic matte black, white, and gray colors, the Petlibro feeder will look great with any bedroom or kitchen aesthetic.

On the bright side, their dry food will remain fresh and you can even record a 10-second message to call your cat to the feeder. It’ll bring peace of mind to the overbooked and forgetful cat mom, because let’s face it, we’ve all been there. —AF

If your cat is no stranger to mind puzzles, this may be the perfect toy to challenge their skills. With four different modes that allow your cat to access the treats within the toy, there’s no shortage of ways to keep your cat engaged and concentrated.

This sisal fiber scratching post helps keep your cat’s nails healthy and their mind stimulated. According to one reviewer, this scratching post is extra sturdy: “I was a little worried this wouldn’t be tall/heavy enough to stand up to my 16 lb Maine Coon, but I’m actually amazed at the quality! She absolutely LOVES it and hasn’t stopped playing with it for a single moment. She’s super intelligent and it can take a lot to keep her entertained, so this is really impressive.” —Sio Hornbuckle

This chew by Petstages is one I’ve seen many puppies love; it must feel great on their puppy teeth. — Kinship Collective member Nicole Ellis

Mad scientist, indeed. Your cat’s challenge is to paw at three spinning beakers (hint: not too fast), then fish out treats from a spiked frame below.

This robo vacuum is perfect for the pet parent that doesn’t have time to vacuum multiple times a day. Even with non-shedding breeds, pets tend to create a lot of dander. But it’s nothing this wet/dry vac can’t take care of. —AF

Interactive cat toys, like this track toy, have been known to keep kitties so engaged that they help resolve litter box avoidance issues, cut down on overgrooming, curb anxiety, and keep their diet in check. It’s important to pay attention to the challenge level, though. So donate an easy, level one toy to shelter cats to avoid adding to their stress, (aka let them win).

Well, it’s summer and you know what that means: sun, sand, and lots of tall grass where blood-sucking critters tend to hide. Keep your pup protected with this preventative flea and tick treatment. —AF

This lick mat is great for slowing your pup’s eating and soothing dogs with anxiety. One reviewer says, “These lick pads have been so helpful for my dog who gets anxious when visitors come over. The licky pads keep him occupied and happy, which seems to reduce his anxiety. Love the suction cups on the back as well.” —SH

Maybe the greatest in a long line of pet parent woes is the issue of pet stink — from cat litter to puppy accidents to that classic wet-dog smell. That’s why we encourage anyone with pets to invest in a good odor remover. And they don’t come much more effective than Rocco & Roxie.

One cat-parenting reviewer wrote: “Almost instantly, the smell of pee and cat spray went away! All of my hours upon hours of cleaning over the last months hadn’t even touched these spots from a smell standpoint and with one spray of this cleaner the smell in each part of my house — was gone — it was that easy!” —AF

Getting your pet to stay hydrated is not all it’s cracked up to be. If they’ve been expertly avoiding the splash of water you’ve been adding to their food bowl, it’s time to get creative with this waterworks display. —AF

This one is great for cats who enjoy a little wrestle and kick. It has a pouch for catnip and the USB-charged flopping action makes it way more engaging than a stuffed mouse or flaccid felt tube. 

Help your pup beat the heat this summer with a pool party all of their own. It’s an easy way to help prevent serious heat-related illnesses, like heatstroke. —AF

The PetSafe Martingale collar is a pet-parent favorite. Designed to fit loosely while your pup is resting and tighten when they’re pulling, it keeps your pup cozy and you in control. According to one reviewer, this is “the best collar hands down. The martingale feature and easy-snap release are both safe and effective, and [for] a city dog who frequently attends daycares and boarding, it’s the only option accepted. I love these collars and have a purchased an extra just to have a spare handy.” —SH

Human-grade memory foam meets faux fur rug for a joint-supporting, pain-easing, orthopedic bed for your dog (and a luxe design for you). The faux fur cover is easily removable for machine washing, and the core’s water-resistant lining ensures an easy clean-up in case of accidents. Plus, the bottom is made from anti-slip rubber, so your pup can stay safely in place while they chase squirrels in their dreams. And just in case you’re tempted to join your dog for a supportive nap, yes, it is available in “giant” size. —CT and JT

The ChomChom has amassed a loyal following of pet parents and has been a go-to solution to the ever-persistent hair problem many of them are faced with on a daily basis. But, for those who are new to the wonders of the hair roller extraordinaire, it’s a bit of a financial commitment.

As one Amazon reviewer writes, “I wasn’t sure if it was going to be worth the $ when I could just use a vacuum on the furniture, but I was wrong. It was definitely worth it. This is way easier and more realistic for consistent cleaning than hauling the vacuum out!” These things last forever, are [sturdier] than your drug store lint roller, and are way more convenient than reaching for the hand-vac every time your cat curls up on your favorite sweater.

OK, the worst part about cat parenthood is having to look at a litter box every day. No matter way you slice it, it’s not the best piece of furniture in the home by a long shot. However, MS Cat has made a tiny retro box that’ll suit your cat’s needs and your design sensibilities. —AF

This outdoor dog bed with a canopy might be the best thing to happen to you and your pup this summer. Spoilers: Pets can get sunburns, too, and the best way to prevent dehydration and all of the stresses of heat-related illnesses is to avoid the sun. —AF

Does your cat get the zoomies? Give them a way to work out some of that pent-up energy without tearing recklessly from one end of the house to the other. It’s a great way to keep them active, and while it’s not right for every cat, the ones who love it, love it.

Speaking of keeping your pup cool, this cooling mat will keep your dog’s essential extremities ( especially those paws and that belly) from overheating, allowing them to enjoy more time outside with none of the stress. —AF
