1. A Nylabone puppy chew starter pack for the new dog owner who's worried they may have gotten in over their heads on this whole puppy thing. Give them something to chew on safely and take a deep breath — you've got this!
2. A stainless steel pet drinking fountain that makes grabbing a drink of water look PAWsitively luxurious!
Promising review: "ALL my pets love this fountain! I am kicking myself for not making this purchase years ago. I am a pet parent to five rescue cats and two rescue dogs. Plenty of room for all to drink at one time. I would love to say they all drink at one time, but the cats are not really fond of how messy the dogs are when they drink! Easy to assemble. Out of the box, assembled, and plugged in and working within 15 minutes. Very quiet." —Pet Mom
Price: $58.95 (originally $99.99)
3. A Furbo dog camera with a treat dispenser to help make *extra* certain that your good boy is still on his best behavior when you're away! Perfect for the quarantine pups that don't know there's a world without you home 24/7!
4. A scientist activity strategy game for your dog who turns into an evil genius when boredom strikes. This toy will give them a healthy and entertaining challenge with none of the destruction.
Promising review: "I have dogs who are not interested in toys, and they need something to stimulate their little brains! I bought this thinking it would be a good game for them. I just got it so they are still figuring it out (which is good, not too easy). I like that it came with suggestions on how to encourage your dog to learn it, and there are different lids so once he figures out how to turn the cylinder over, that is not the end of the learning options. It didn't cost a lot, and I think they will benefit from using it (plus it is fun to watch them try to figure it out!)." —Heather
Price: $18.50 (originally $22.99)
5. A Nylabone bacon-flavored chew stick for the dog who loves to bring outside sticks indoors any chance they get. Swap those out for this yummy-flavored one — they won't complain!
Promising review: "Bought this for my puppy who was bringing in every stick she could find in the yard. She LOVES it! My furniture is now safe from her razor sharp teeth. My adult dog has started stealing it from her, so I have ordered several more and the bigger size." —Butler
Price: $12.99 (originally $20.79)
6. A dog brick interactive puzzle toy to challenge your pup and keep them on their toes in their hunt for treats!
Promising review: "All three of my dogs were great with this! Two of them have done puzzle toys before but the third was unfamiliar. It's a great confidence booster for him since he's pretty anxious. They all try to pull off the lids but thankfully they snap in and out of place easily so nothing breaks! Great boredom buster and a perfect way to transition to some tougher puzzles." —Sarah
Price: $14.32 (originally $24.99)
7. A hide-a-squirrel plush puzzle toy that's both adorable AND interactive so your pup can be ~engaged~ while playing. Bonus points because you can purchase replacement squirrels for this toy, so even the more destructive players can enjoy!
Promising review: "My border collie pup loves this squirrel plush puzzle. When we load it up, she loves digging in and pulling them out, sometimes she gets her whole head in there and walks around with a log as a head. But the best part is that the squirrels themselves have been a lot of fun for both her and us. Every day we are playing chase, fetch, catch, or hide and seek with these and having many squirrels makes it even more fun. Honestly I am impressed with how well they have held up. They’ve even gone through the wash many times. I highly recommend getting the ginormous size. It isn’t THAT big but it’s got lots of holes and squirrels." —Stevie
Price: $9.73+ (originally $12.99+ available in four sizes)
8. A mounted scratch post window seat to help kill two birds with one stone and let your cat birdwatch (in a cruelty-free manner) while they get their scratching in.
Promising review: "I give this five stars. Only problem is, if you have more than one cat, you'll need one for each cat. I have three, the first pair are a 9-year-old brother and sister, and the third is just over a year old. They antagonize, scrap, and brawl over who gets to use it. Spare yourself the headache of being a cat referee and get one per cat. It's like a TV for a cat, they will spend hours in it." —John
Price: $22.60 at checkout (originally $42.99)
9. A treat dispensing ball for the pup who struggles to pace themselves when it comes time for dessert, or any meal really. This little ball will keep them endlessly entertained (and well-fed) as long as you have those refills handy!
Promising review: "This ball is deceptive. It doesn't seem particularly sturdy, it doesn't seem like there's anything special about it. But you're wrong, this thing is magical. I previously had one that lasted me over eight YEARS with two purebred Siberian huskies. I now have a small pack of husky mixes who somehow destroy EVERY dog toy they can. I stumbled across this ball again and I instantly bought five in the LARGE size. Y'all. My dogs dig at these balls, they throw them, they bounce them (they are so bouncy!), they crush them, they bring them in the water (kiddie pool). Nothing breaks these toys. It provides HOURS of distraction, for the low price of a few dog cookies you place inside the ball. From the owner of some of the most toy-destructive dog breeds, buy this now. You'll thank yourself later." —Nikki
Price: $7.97+ (originally $12.99+ available in three sizes)
10. Or try this cat-approved egg-xerciser treat dispensing toy, purrrfect for the kitten who always wants to play with their food.
Promising review: "Shady eats his treats so fast sometimes he throws them back up. This make him eat the treats slower. Halo, his sister, is blind, but she can smell the treats and gets them too. You can make the openings smaller for different size treats which is a big plus. Treats just fall out of the other types." —Blackjack
Price: $4.82 (originally $8.95)
11. A dental catnip chew toy that will help keep your cat's teeth clean and free of plaque build-up as they play, because we all know there's absolutely no chance they're letting you near their mouth with a toothbrush!
12. A Kong window cat teaser toy to help encourage and fulfill your cat's natural hunting instincts without involving any small rodents from your yard.
13. A reflective hands-free running leash for the dog owner who's contemplating training for marathon season. Wrap this leash around your waist for the ultimate hands-free jogging session, or simply enjoy a hike with your BFFF (best furry friend forever) that doesn't involve your arm getting yanked after every squirrel you see.
14. A mid-century modern cat cabinet to tuck away the more unsightly aspects of pet ownership. No matter how cute your litter box is, its not as cute as this cabinet.
Promising review: "Super impressed! I had been looking for a piece of furniture that would look like a buffet versus a container for our litter box and this is it. We have two cats, so I bought two and jerry-rigged one so that the entries were on opposite sides of each other. A little challenging, but we made it work and we're incredibly happy about this purchase." —Stacy
Price: $86.10 at checkout (originally $123, available in three colors)
15. An outdoor dog swimming pool for the sweltering DOG days of summer when you and your pup simply want to take a PAWS to kick back and relax. Get in, the water's fine!
Promising review: "Absolutely love this pool! Bought this for my Mastiff-Labrador mix to replace her large plastic kiddie pool that was bulky and hard to store. This pool can be easily drained by a large plug, folded up, and transported to friends' houses, which was a huge win for me! Very happy with my purchase!" —Liahu
Price: $26.33+ at checkout (originally $26.37+ available in three sizes)
16. A pillowy pet bed to help you politely kick your dog out of yours, because he's gotten far too big for you to both sleep peacefully at night. Can you tell I'm speaking from very personal (and deeply exhausted) experience?
Promising review: "The pad thickness is perfect. Chip can hang his head over the edge and curl up in a ball for a deep snooze. The material is durable — Chip likes to rearrange his bed regularly and there is no sign of wear. Really good for the money." —Bedtime
Price: $14.33+ at checkout (originally $24.99+ available in two sizes and two colors)
17. An extra tall auto-close pet gate for that enthusiastic fur-baby who likes to do everything together — including signing for your packages. Boundaries are so important, aren't they?
Promising review: "I have three larger dogs who consider it sibling rivalry to see who can jump most of the gates in my house. But this gate is absolutely perfect, just high enough to stop them from running outside after the mailperson! Friendly but loud and scary if you aren't familiar with them, they expect to be greeted by everyone! Now the mail person is not bombarded when they bring packages!" —Chewy customer
Price: $42.04 at checkout (originally $44.99)
18. A cactus cat scratching post that pairs fashion and function together with its ~sharp~ design, so you and your cat don't have to constantly look at some unsightly scratching post that's ruining the ~vibe~ of your space.
Promising review: "I’ve had this for almost three months and it’s still standing strong. My cat only has three legs so she can’t stand tall. The scratching post is both tall and short enough for her to reach. My other cat has all four legs and will stretch up on it. It’s just a great one, and so cute — I’ve gotten a lot of compliments on it. It’s easy to put together as well." —Shannon
Price: $22.45 at checkout (originally $37.41)
19. A set of foldable pet stairs for if you're like me and have *completely* caved about the "no paws on the furniture" rule. Now your dog has grown accustomed to a certain couch lifestyle but can't quite make it up there on their own anymore. The things we do for these animals.
Promising review: "Our older cat has a neurological issue that affects his rear legs and he struggles to walk sometimes. Jumping is out of the question. We had been using an older set of steps that were steeper and shorter and he did okay with them but when we replaced them with this one — taller and a longer stretch making it less steep — he almost bounded up them. The carpet gives him something to grip as well. Five stars for sure!" —Bevy
Price: $33.95+ (originally $59.99+ available in two sizes)
20. A wooden cat tree so subtly stylish and understated that you, your cat, AND your carefully curated aesthetic will thoroughly appreciate it.
