Promising review: "This is THE best stuff ever. My fish LOVE it and it lowers their stress so much so their colors came back and they look so much happier. I have cichlids and color is very important to defining if they are stressed out or not. I have used many pet store-recommended (just because they are expensive) water conditioners that aren't even scratching the surface to how much I love this water conditioner." –Cheyenne

Promising review: "Absolutely the best product. It saved my itchy goldendoodle! We tried changing food, Benadryl, medicated shampoo, fish oil, everything you can imagine... nothing worked long-term. He was itching his face so badly he would make himself bleed. Had sores and scabs all over his face and neck. I bought these because they had good reviews and I was desperate. It changed his life! He no longer scratches AT ALL! His coat looks great and all of his sores are healed. He’s the happiest he’s been which makes me a very happy momma. He is also very picky and never eats treats... he eats these every time so that’s an added bonus!" —Darcie

Promising review: "I am sooo pleased! My dog Bayleigh fits perfect inside of the carrier! She is a Papillon/Daschund mix, so she has a long body, and she's pretty tall. She weighs 14.2 pounds and the carrier holds her well when picked up. It is easy to lift with the handles and from the bottom, because the insert that lays inside the bottom is very sturdy. The insert is also covered with a soft lining that a dog will love to lay on. I adore the flap that unzips only enough for the dog's face to peek out, but not enough to jump out. I also love the flap on the side that unzips just big enough for a hand to reach in and comfort a nervous pet. My Bayleigh just fell in love with the carrier as well; she feels safe while riding between my husband and me in the car. I'm going to be ordering more from Chewy really soon, I'm a forever customer!" —Tess

Promising review: "My cat likes nothing. He doesn't go into paper bags, ignores boxes, and isn't curious about the birds. Mostly he eats and sleeps and allows us to pet him. But he LOVES this! I took someone's tip to stick it on the corner of a cabinet with looped duct tape. Seems to be holding fine, even though Igor rubs himself senseless on this thing. Also the catnip that came with it must be killer stuff. He really goes for it. So Igor gives it a big five stars!" —AmazonCustomer

Promising review: "We have three of these beds for two 20–25-pound Boston terriers. They LOVE this bed. Once they're in it, they snooze out, and are quiet for hours. The impressive thing I found is that my 1-year-old pup, who has never opted to sleep anywhere besides under my arm, has spent several nights on the floor in this bed. This means I have been able to roll over peacefully in the middle of the night without running into a furry, snorting lump of dog. Even my poor, old big doggo has tried to utilize this bed, even though she has a couple of her own size to use. Bottom line, this is hands-down the best bed I've had. You can even very easily toss it into the washer to clean it. Nothing beats that!" —Leah K. Baker

Promising review: "I bought this bed for our 5-year-old German shepherd, Scout. He immediately jumped onto it and acted very pleased. When I unpacked it, all the air was sucked out of it; it was flat as pancake. I left it lying out overnight and by morning it was 95% inflated and within 24 hours the bed was completely inflated. Scout is 120 pounds and I purchased the XL. He fits on the XL just fine. We like this bed so much we ordered another in an XXL for him to share with his kitty friends. It will give him room to stretch out. I’ll take the XL bed with us to the office where he loves to come and hang out with the stuff. I think the bed is expensive, however it is very well-made, attractive, and I am sure will be good for Scout's joints. It’s the least I can do for our most loyal member of our family!" —Grammie53

Promising review: "I lost a cat to urinary issues and it hit hard. I didn’t want another one of my cats to suffer like he did ever again, so I started looking into better cat food. My vet wouldn’t prescribe anything since my two girls are healthy, but she did recommend I try this food so I took her advice. My cats seem to love the flavor! They’re both picky when it comes to hard food, and when I was switching them over from their old food, they’d pick out and eat only the pieces of this food. They seem to love the bigger kibble size, and I like it too because it helps with tartar build up. They’re healthy, happy, and active, and this food gives me a little peace of mind about any urinary problems we may face." —Alexis

Fellow BuzzFeed writer AnaMaria Glavan raves about this product:
"My dog has recently started to shed, and I am finding that all my clothes are covered in his fur. I had seen this pet grooming glove all over the internet, so I figured I’d give it a try. And boy oh good boy, it genuinely works. The glove is super comfortable and using it couldn’t be more foolproof: just put it on and run your hands through your pet’s fur. That’s it! The silicone grooves pick up so much fur with ease. Like, my dog looks close to hairless. HOW is he shedding so much!?!? After a few runs, I found that I would have to remove fur from the glove before continuing (you can pick up the fur with your other hand or run the glove under water — either works) but it’s no biggie. The silicone actually makes it really easy to keep this clean. Not only does this *not* bother his skin, but he….loves this. He starts snoring after exactly two run-throughs on his back. Also, his coat looks SO shiny after each use! TL;DR: this is one of those inexpensive add-ons that any pet owner should have on hand."

Promising review: "These crate pads are better than I expected — thicker, softer, perfect fit in the crate. And the dogs love them! Can't ask for better and the price was more than reasonable since they were cheaper than what I could make them for." —Marcia

Promising review: "Kitty loves it! Never had a cat before and then I brought in a 10-year-old stray from my old apartment. He is the sweetest cat ever and I fell in love with him so wanted to spoil him. He loves it even more than I could have hoped. Spends several hours a day sleeping or just perched on it and hits it with his claws every time he jumps on. So adorable. Have had it for a couple months and it's held up really well. Cool that when the top is worn out I can just flip it over and it's like having a brand new scratcher again. He's a pretty big/long cat so I was unsure how well he'd fit on it but it's absolutely perfect. Will definitely be buying another if this one ever wears out!" —Super Bon Bon

Promising review: "I'm not really a cat lady (yet) but someone anonymously sent this to me (or so I tell people) when I got a new dog, an older rescue who had never been around cats. The dog is not mean to her but the cat finds it disturbing that she can't sit in my lap without a giant German shepherd staring at her from three inches away. Like imagine if you were trying to sleep and a creature whose head was bigger than your body was hanging over you. So, into the 'roo pocket she goes and she will stay there for hours. Sometimes I have to call in sick to my job because the cat won't let me change out of the roo. It's not forbidden to wear a 'roo to work but it might make people not take me very seriously so I only go to work on the days the cat says I can. Seriously this is the dorkiest thing ever and I look really stupid in it but I love it for real." —Kindle Customer

Promising review: "My dad's dog Zeke is a notoriously messy drinker. I don't even think he swallows his last gulp, just fills his mouth up and walks away leaving a trail of water behind him. When I found out my parents would be staying with us for a month, I needed a solution to protect my wood floors. I was intrigued by this bowl because I hoped it would cause him to drink slower and I was right! To train your dog that there is water in the bowl, take all other water sources away and then fill it so a little water sits above the paw shaped hole in the center. Both Zeke and my dog have adapted well to this and my floors are drier. There are still occasionally drops on the floor but no longer puddles, but I blame the dog not the bowl." —Bano

Promising review: "Love this bowl! We purchased this for our 3-year-old cat. She was having belly issues after each meal; her bowl was too low and she was taking in too much air. We purchased this size plus the larger one for her water and she absolutely loves them! If you leave food out for your cat all day, I recommend the larger of the bowls. We have to portion our cats food because she'd eat all day! The larger bowl is a perfect size for water, if you have one cat. I definitely recommend purchasing these bowls! They are beautifully made and arrived well-packaged. —L.D.

Promising review: "The average cat scratching post is a hideous blend of string and beige carpet that sucks the soul from any room in which it is placed. Not this one. This scratching post is sleek, well made, and unassuming, blending easily into any room. It arrived well packaged and was easy to install with the hardware provided. Furthermore, it is robustly constructed and stands up to constant use by my cat. I highly recommend this product." —D James

The reviewer above got these results after two months of daily use! This isn't a replacement for veterinary care.
Promising review: "One application and a day later I see better results than vet-prescribed meds. My cat Gandalf was in bad condition when we adopted him because he had a severe skin yeast infection. I tried this in a last-ditch effort to help him and WOW, one day later and finally my poor boy isn't constantly licking or scratching until he bleeds. He isn't licking at all!! His open wounds are finally scabbing and he finally has relief. Thank you so much for making this product." —Joshua and Michele

Promising review: "Seriously helpful for keeping kitties hydrated. [My] cats aren't prone to drinking enough water, and they also abhor getting their whiskers wet. This fountain, recommended by a friend, was a huge hit from the moment I set it up and solved both of those problems. My kitty now guzzles water any time she wishes, which is definitely more than before (and yay, I don't have to turn the sink on for her now, which was the only way she'd drink water). This is fantastic!" —X

Promising review: "This kitty bed is made of soft, durable fabric that if I were a kitty, I’d never get out of it! My little guy needs persuasion because he wants to sleep on OUR bed, so we bought him this. When he thinks we aren’t looking he climbs in and curls up and looks genuinely happy. He just won’t admit it. It’s really, really soft. If they made one in my size, I’d buy it! Definitely worth the price. We have had more expensive cat beds that were not as nice as this one. Very well made. Cozy and deep for a kitty to really snuggle in too." —Mrs Gower

Promising review: "My dogs loves this toothpaste! They look forward to teeth brushing time. Especially my toy Manchester terrier, that I rescued, used to hate getting his teeth brushed.

Promising review: "Talked to my vet about this kind of product. She was pretty informative. This stuff isn't a miracle, but it's helpful between cleanings and she said it was worth using as long as the dogs get regular brushing and professional checkups too. So, it's a good thing as part of regular care." —Keith M. Hamm

Promising review: "Our new rescued dog has heartworms, and is in the long process of being treated for it. This means months of keeping the dog calm and inactive. Friends recommended getting toys to draw out meal times and to mentally stimulate them since they can't get physical activity. I feed my dog with this puzzle toy, and then with a Kong that has been filled with kibble and chicken broth and frozen. She absolutely loves this toy. It fits a good amount of kibble. It's challenging enough that it kept her engaged as she figured it out. It was fun watching her get a little better at it every day. By now she can clean it out almost as fast as I can fill it, but she still loves it. We've been using it twice a day since we got it and it's still one of my dog's favorite toys to use." —Megg
