Promising review: "They work beautifully to minimize vomiting, coughing, and retching associated with hairballs. We have three cats. Two of them have mild hairball issues during shedding seasons, and one of them just vomits all year long if untreated. We used to use Laxatone or Cat-Lax, etc. This worked when we used it, but they hate it, so we had to apply it to their paws during a messy wrestling match, and they would occasionally violently shake it off onto the carpet or wall. As a result, we did not give it regularly, and there was a lot of cat vomit. These treats work like a charm, and without the messy wrestling match associated with putting glop on their paws. The cats all love them." —Patricia

Promising review: "I read the other reviews before buying this product. I was still skeptical until I used it myself. I have a multiple cat household and need to clean floors daily. This broom is great! It has two sides. One looks like a fine rake, the other side is smooth. I also used it on furniture and the cat hair thoroughly came up. I can clean without using my vacuum cleaner. Honestly, I have an expensive Dyson and this broom cleans the cat hair up better than the expensive vacuum cleaner." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "Having multiple dogs is a pain to clean up after, especially during the changing seasons. With this I was able to REALLY brush away all their excess fur with ease and they love it! SO easy to use, empty, and to wash if needed. VERY happy with my purchase! I just wish I had bought it sooner." —Kuheler

Promising review: "I am a dogsitter, and dog hair is the bane of my existence. This little contraption has CHANGED MY LIFE. I went to visit a friend, who is also a dogsitter, and I was amazed because you couldn't tell there were multiple dogs because there wasn't dog hair on all the furniture! I was skeptical, but it works. It took a bit to figure out how to use it effectively. I wanted to drag it down repeatedly in one direction, (like you would if you were brushing hair) but it works better to go back and forth (like painting something). I have dogs that have long and short hair, and it gets all of it up." —April S

This portable carpet cleaner will spray, brush, and suction up any stain, no adult supervision needed. It also comes with a hose and tool attachment if you'd prefer a more hands-on cleaning session.
Promising review: "This has been a savior in my house. It is so easy to use — just fill the solution/water chamber, place on the stain, and let it do the work. Empty the gross water and done! With multiple cats running around, there's a stain to be cleaned at least once a week, and this thing hasn't failed me yet. The detachable hand-held function is nice, but I don't use it very often. I'm more often lazy, and choose to just run the programs instead. So far, I feel like mine has already paid for itself, saving my rental apartment carpets from innumerable stains." —Turf Girl

Promising review: "There are few products I own that I love as much as this one. If you have multiple pets (I have two dogs and two cats) you need this. With two attachment tips there is NOTHING it cannot take pet hair off of. The rubber spiky tip takes the duvet on my bed from gray matted cat fur back to burgundy velvet in minutes. The black rigid attachment cleans sofas like nobody's business. I'VE GOT A DOG-ALLERGIC KID so picking up hair is critical here. When the Bissell has done a couch she can sit there without problems. Lots of pet hair cleanup value for a low price." —Litgal

Promising review: "This is the first time ever that I could not wait to write a review! This product is absolutely amazing and does exactly what it says. I have two dogs that have pretty much destroyed a section of carpet in our hallway and I was at my wit's end trying to get it clean. These pads actually removed stains in areas that I had scrubbed. No question about giving this a 5-star rating!" —laura cook

Promising review: "If you have multiple cats, you know that they have their own personalities, likes and dislikes. While one cat likes laser toys the other one doesn't. While one likes feather toys, the other one runs and hides from them. With this toy, they both like it and play with it. We've had this toy for a while now and the wire did bend a little and we lost some of the compressed cardboard but it's still usable. They still play with it and our chunky cat really jumps for it." —Amra

Promising review: "I have six elderly cats, and a few of them oftentimes leave smelly pee puddles to register their disdain at whatever cats get 'peed off' about. It's not a litter box problem and, although I've caught one or two of them doing it, I can't blame them all. This product works great on fresh messes as well as dried ones. After blotting up fresh pee pods, I saturate the area with Rocco & Roxie's odor remover and let dry. For dried stinky stuff, I just saturate the area and let it dry. It has a pleasant odor and completely eliminates the ammonia odor. Believe me, I've tried all kinds of products, and this one works the best. I buy gallons now just to have on hand. It's better than smelling that awful pee!" —mona mia

Promising review: "The item is even cuter than in the description, and it's very soft. When I first tried it, I thought the purr was very loud, and that it might scare my two senior cats, who are almost 17 and 18 years old. However, they both LOVE the purr, and it seems to soothe them and help them settle in. Both have numerous chronic health issues but still have good quality of life. The older one, though, is on appetite stimulants, which can make her a bit agitated for a few hours after she has her dose. The toy really seems to help her calm down. I do have to keep touching the head to restart the purr every two minutes, but that's fine. I'm always looking for ways to enhance my kitties' quality of life, and I'm grateful for this find!" —SociologyReader

Promising review: "This is one of the few toys that my three rescue dogs really enjoy. I just put a cup of their dog food in the pockets and tabs, and they enjoy trying to find it. The mat is durable, and whenever it gets dirty, I just throw it in the washer and dryer and it comes out like new." —K. Engelmann

Promising review: "I have an 8-month-old cat who is constantly shedding. He has black fur, so as much as I love him, it's annoying. I bought the wipes and decided to try them out. At first, I had to tempt him with treats while I would 'bathe' him. Over time, he actually became more tolerant and seemed to like it. I recently started fostering kittens, and it was time for their neuter. They had to wear a cone for a bit, and I noticed their fur becoming greasy. I used the wipes, and it was amazing! The kittens actually liked it, and I think they felt better after. One wipe goes a long way, and none of them have an issue with smell or anything. I love the ingredients and the gentleness of the product. Also as a side note, my boyfriend is mildly allergic. When there would be a lot of hair everywhere, he would sneeze. When using the wipes to cut down on the shedding hair and dander, he noticed an improvement. Granted, his allergy is more an annoyance than something serious, but he really appreciates it." —Katie

Promising review: "I have been using this on my two older long-haired cats, and it has really improved the condition of their coats. It also has removed the dryness and all of the white flakes. I am very pleased.
Update: For some bizarre reason I decided to adopt four older cats, all of them with long hair. Keeping them mat-free has been a challenge, and I have managed to find tools that have kept them mat-free. I have found this spray to REALLY help, along with some cat wipes. It is well worth a try." —Kristin V. Johnson

Promising review: "My Ike won't drink unless it is out of the faucet. Having a two-sink bathroom, I devoted one to him. But the water dripping constantly cost money on the water bill and the spigot got crusted from the minerals and the sink was always black from his paws. I put this on the counter next to the sink and he loves it. He now lays next to it to feel the motor run and hear the water and I really think he's drinking even more. I pull it apart once a week and clean thoroughly but I can say there has NEVER been any slime to the water. The filter in this unit does a great job. I only have to refill every few days. I've now reclaimed my sink and happiness abounds. My other big boy discovered it and now I have two kitties laying on the counter taking turns drinking from the fountain." —Donna

Promising review: "Who knew this could be so helpful in so many ways??? This bowl has resolved many food issues in our multi-pet home!! It has taken meal time from about 1.5 minutes up to 10 minutes for one dog, and more for the other. It has ended food aggression issues in our house. And best of all, my dogs are enjoying a meal and seeming completely satisfied after." —Lizzy

This automatic feeder can hold up to 12 meals depending on the size of each portion (you can choose from 1/8 cup to 4 cups).
Promising review: "Needed something so my three cats would stop hassling me at 5 a.m. This was the only feeder with decent reviews, could be programmed for multiple meals, prevent my cats from opening it, and do small enough portions. Took a couple trials for the plate to use underneath, but instead of buying three individual feeders I put a dog food mat from PetSmart underneath. All the cats are somewhat aggressive except one but they seemed to have figured it out so they all can eat." —Matt

Promising review: "I've been buying this stuff for YEARS! I have always had several cats and two large dogs, all which are inside/outside pets. This stuff is THE BEST for removing smells associated with pet accidents! The most important thing to remember is that you MUST remove the pee, poop, or vomit first (paper towels and soap) and then soak the spot. Sometimes I even cover the sprayed spot with a pee pad to keep it wetter longer. The longer the enzymes have to work and 'eat' the gross stuff, the better! Smells fresh at first, and by the next day, no smell at all. If you use this stuff correctly, you will have NO PET SMELLS in your home. Clean, soak, and walk away. Period. It's awesome stuff." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "My cat love tearing open food bags and in our small kitchen, keeping the cat food in a drawer was taking up valuable space and I quickly got sick of going to the garage to portion dog food. This container made my life so much better. My dogs’ food (right now a 15-pound bag) fits perfectly in the bottom (fills to about two thirds) and my cat’s food can go in the top. Now all their food is in one location and the container is kitty-proof." —Emaina

They are bigger than you'd think and easy to cut for custom sizes! I also use them at the corners of the doors on the carpet to prevent them from scratching up the corners of the carpet when I lock them out of my room." —Kari

Promising review: "Have six cats and only two of them don't mind a real bath. This products smells great and the cats love this addition to their weekly comb and brush routine. After I comb and brush them, I apply the foam to their coat (it doesn't take much) and continue to brush until they are dry. Their coat is soft and silky afterwards and they smell like they had a real bath." —J. H.

Promising review: "With three dogs, two small and one large, scooping the yard is a never-ending job. But with this, there is no more bending to pick up the doggy droppings. I am able to easily use the rake to push the droppings into the bag-covered bin. When I am done cleaning up the yard, I just simply remove the plastic bag from the scoop, tie it off, and dispose. I do spray the rake off with the hose sprayer and then clip the rake onto the scooper for easy storage. I really like this handy scooper. It makes a very icky job much easier to handle." —Kelly Eldred

It also comes with catnip. These boards from Amazon are a cheaper alternative if your kitty loves scratching cardboard.
Promising review: "My two cats (both with very different personalities) love, love, love this scratching post. With the circle parts on both ends, they even play with it, and sometimes they use it as a lounge chair. It's good for cats to have scratching posts that are both vertical and horizontal so they can stretch all their muscles (and don't end up ripping up your carpet or furniture). I've had it for a year now with both cats using it daily and it has not worn out yet. Once one side is worn out, you just turn it upside down and there's another brand new side for them to use — so it's like you're getting two posts for the price of one. It looks very classy and nice in your house, too. (Not an eyesore like a lot of the posts can be.) I'll definitely buy again when it's time to get a new one." —PA

Promising review: "Best purchase I've made on Amazon. It was hard for me to commit that amount of money for literal feces, but it pays itself off within the first month. Great for multi-cat households, and very efficient. Holds up to its description and name; definitely worth it if you have little time to constantly replace litter. I love the prepackaged litter and the lid for the disposal. Works great. Also I did not think I would have any use for the bowel counter, but it does help if there are any irregularities. My cat had a cold and there was a noticeable difference on the counter programmed into the litter box. Without that, I would not have been able to confirm that my pet was under the weather." —Bethany

Promising review: "After running Eufy for nearly two months now, I can confidently say I absolutely LOVE it! It is amazing on my hardwood floors. It picks up sooo much fine dust brought in by my two German Shepards! They shed year-round! And it’s super effective with pet hair! Wow! I use Eufy once a day for a little more than hour, emptying and cleaning the brushes out about three to four times during use. It seriously has been life-changing, keeping my floors cleaner than sweeping! Great purchase and I would highly recommend!!" —Jacqueline M
