1. A Kong monkey dog toy with an extra layer of material to stand up to puppers who like to chew and make a little noise when they're hard at play.
2. A pop-up tri-tunnel for your cat who needs some alone time to explore and go on their own adventures when they're bored with humans (which is usually pretty often). This tunnel easily pops up and collapses for convenient storage and also is perfect for other tiny pets like rabbits and ferrets.
Promising review: "I bought the long Whisker City pop-up play tunnel for my active 12+ pound 2-year-old. He loves it! The construction is very sturdy. He can zoom through from one end to the other or he can play (or nap) inside the tunnel. It's large enough that he can turn around inside." —Ollie the Cat
Price: $19.99
3. A Nylabone chew ring for promoting positive dental health while your dog gets their chew on. Plus, it's a change from the traditional bone shape with a circular design (because even your dog gets bored chewing the same stuff sometimes).
Promising review: "WE LOVE THIS RING!!! Our 1.5-year-old pit is a HARDCORE SUPER CHEWER! This ring he has not been able to get through! He chews and makes it chewed up but cannot break through! It’s amazing! He has high anxiety and chewing on this helps him tremendously! We have bought two so far and plan on buying more! Great buy!" —Carieann18
Price: $7.99 (originally $14.99)
4. A Kong eight-track cat toy featuring two balls that roll inside a contraption because your kitty needs to chase, hunt, and capture. A feather attachment filled with catnip adds some additional fun to the game.
5. A motion-sensor cat toy that simulates a mouse running under a durable sheet, providing your kitty with hours of entertainment as they practice their pouncing and hunting instincts.
Promising review: "Whoever came up with toy was a genius! My cat loves this toy. She'll play with it for over an hour nonstop, which is the longest I've ever seen a cat play with anything. It keeps her engaged and interested, which is just what I was hoping for. Get rechargeable batteries because you'll go through a lot of them!" —MissMaggieMay
Price: $30.99 (originally $32.99)
6. A roller ball for when you're trying to make fetch happen with this flexible football-style toy that squishes, bounces, rolls, and tugs...always returning to its original shape.
Promising review: "I kept seeing this toy at PetSmart and thought it looked fun, but always seemed to put it back because I thought my dog would chew it up and tear it apart in an instant. I finally broke down and got our dog (German shepherd mix) this toy and I have been pleasantly surprised! This is by far his favorite toy — he throws it around, squeezes it, kicks it, chews on it to no end and it's hard to tell he's done anything with it! Definitely would recommend this product." —jennifer12
Price: $6.99 (originally $9.29)
7. A Kong classic dog toy to keep your doggo busy. This toy challenges Fido to figure out how to retrieve the treats inside the snowman-shaped rubber plaything. Dog parents have loved this little helper for years, as it is considered the "gold standard of dog toys."
8. Nylabone teething keys to encourage your puppy to gnaw on these keys instead of your real ones (because while you love your fur baby, you don't love all that slobber in your hand).
9. A Kong elephant toy that can be used for everything from catch to cuddling, with an extra layer of material to last so it stays their favorite.
Promising review: "The body is firm and the perfect size to fill her mouth. She loves carrying it around the house and squeaking on it while she plays. My brother has bought a few of these in the past for his older Lab mix, and they have held up well over the years, which makes me confident in buying these toys for my own pup. I highly recommend!" —Pips93
Price: $5.49 (originally $10.99)
10. A meowtain track that goes round and round, entertaining your cat while they bat the balls with their paws. Perfect for a cat of any age, keeping both their mind and body feline fine.
Promising review: "I got this a year and a half ago and no matter what toys I’ve bought for my cat since then, he plays with this DAILY! He is 14, and this toy keeps him playing like a energetic kitten. He maintains healthy vitals, good muscle mass, and low fat, and this toy definitely contributes to his good health. Great buy!" —Dozy
Price: $24.99
11. A catty whack toy with a sound effect that mimics the thrill of the chase, including a mobile feather wand that juts out of the star-shaped contraption. Some cats (and even dogs!) don't even try to catch the feather and enjoy just watching it go!
Promising review: "Two of our three cats love to play with this. The third cat (the one we bought it for because he likes to hunt and chase) watches from a small distance. The shocker is that the puppy loves it, too. We have to let the cats play with it in a different room or the puppy hogs all the fun." —MicheleH
Price: $19.99 (originally $36.99)
12. A Nylabone chew toy for a dog of any age and size that likes to carry their treasures around to show you. This durable toy features raised bristles that also ensure clean teeth health for your pup.
13. Peanut-butter flavored Kong paste to fill your standard Kong with and also make medication time a little bit easier (and more digestible!) for man's best friend.
Promising review: "I bought a can of this during our town's shutdown. When I needed more, I just logged onto the website for Petsmart and ordered TWO cans of the 14-oz size. One for work and one for home. The girls just love this, and it helps keep their medications on target. Easy to use, and again, the dogs love this stuff!!! No fuss, no mess. Loving This!" —stitchingmamatx
Price: $16.49
14. A spiky ball that literally stands up to rigorous activity with its tough thermoplastic rubber prongs that house a squeaker underneath all of those teeth.
Promising review: "We started buying these balls for our Chiweenie when we got him almost five years ago. He cannot do anything without them. He has to have one right by him when he eats; they go everywhere with him. He is absolutely obsessed. Since he is a smaller dog, they last forever, in fact, we have two that we gave him a few months ago that still have the squeaker in them and the squeaker still works! I don't know what we will do if Petsmart ever stops selling them. My dog wouldn't know what to do with himself if he did not have his 'spikey' ball." —Doxie mom 4
Price: $1.99
15. A teaser cat toy to wave the magic wand and immediately command your cat's attention, with a teaser that includes Silverfrenzy, which is stronger than standard catnip.
Promising review: "This is by far the best toy we have purchased in a very long time. Our cats react to it almost like they react to a can opening. They will literally wake up and come running from the other room to get to play if they hear them (and they aren't loud). On top of that, our highly arthritic senior who hasn't played with anything since we adopted him almost a year ago is playing with these. Based on our household, I really can't recommend these enough. If I could do more than five stars for this, I would." —Bithi
Price: $7.99
