For Outdoor Lovers

1. Gulpy Water Bottle

Price Disclaimer

For long walks and hikes, the Gulpy Water Bottle is a must. Simply pack it in any regular water bottle backpack sleeve and extend its built-in “bowl” during water break pit stops.

2. Tigris Dog Pack

Price Disclaimer

The OneTigris Hound Pack is an envy-worthy backpack that’s perfect for outdoor adventures. Strap the pack to your dog during hikes and pack it with the necessities, like a pup first aid kit, food, treats and extra water.

3. Dog Fence Window

Price Disclaimer

This fence window won’t just make your dog’s day — it’ll make their life. Simply install this clear, domed window into your backyard fence, and give your dog the opportunity to watch the world go by.

4. Collar LED Light

Price Disclaimer

If your dog or cat goes outdoors in anything other than perfect lighting, get them a collar LED light. Think of it as a bike light for your pet. It easily clips to collars or leashes, is weather resistant and has a battery life of up to 25 hours.

5. Cat Yoga Mat

Price Disclaimer

How many times have you started an at-home yoga session only to end up with a cat curled underneath your downward dog pose?

The Cat Yoga Mat solves this problem by giving your pet a mat of their own. It’s cat-sized, has a convenient catnip toy attached and offers a scratch-free surface for a mess-free floor.

6. Outdoor Cat Habitat

Price Disclaimer

Indoor cats like to be outside sometimes, too — especially when their humans have left them indoors. The habitat is a clear tent that gives your cat space to move around outside without running the risk of them jetting off on an exploration of their own.

7. Small Pet Travel Carrier

Price Disclaimer

If you’re traveling this holiday season, the Awtang Travel Carrier should be at the top of your shopping list. This carrier has a built-in food bowl to minimize spilling, a water attachment, sleeping quarters and even a slide.

The Savvy Tabby Holiday Chew toy box is, according to its sellers, “a feline entertainment system.” With an assortment of toys, both plush and sparkly, your cat will likely agree.

Price Disclaimer

For the adventurous indoor cat, this 4-Way Cat Tunnel is like a dream come true. The nearly 5-foot tunnel gives the perfect hideout spot, and the hanging plush toys will keep them entertained.

The cat tunnel offers extra-wide openings, so if your dog wants to join in on the fun, they won’t get stuck along the way.

17. Holiday Cat Scratcher House

18. Time for Joy Cat Teaser Toy

Price Disclaimer

Give your cat something to jump and chase with the Kissmoose Cat Teaser Toy. The plush moose with “spring” limbs dangles from the end of a pole, meaning playtime will involve both you and your cat.

20. Rabbit Christmas Stocking Toy Set

Price Disclaimer

If 1 toy isn’t enough for your rabbit, this stocking toy set will do the trick. Each holiday stocking comes with 8 durable toys all made for heavy chewers. Just like the previous toy, these are made from carefully sourced wood from the US only.

Watch these huskies help their humans prepare their Christmas tree:

21. Christmas “Cake” Bird Toy

For Techies

38. Furbo Dog Camera

See what they’re doing via the HD camera, toss them treats throughout the day and even receive notifications when they’re barking. With 2-way audio, you can chat with your dog and even do a little training — all from your desk at work.

39. iFetch

Price Disclaimer

After either you or your dog drops a tennis ball into its large opening, the iFetch launches the ball for your dog to chase. With a little training, fetch time can become completely hands-free.

40. Link Smart Dog Collar

Price Disclaimer

The Link Smart Collar acts as a GPS tracking device for your dog, plus so much more. By connecting to the Link app, you can locate a lost dog, trigger training noises (think clicker training), detect dangerous temperatures, track activity, store vet records and even record walks.

To use the Link Smart Collar, you’ll need to sign up for a monthly service plan, which also gives you an extended warranty and complimentary access to the Pet Poison Helpline.

Pet Sitter Picks

This is for those cats who just love to chew on your plants. This little planter comes with organic soil, organic seed mix and a lead-free planter to put it together. It’s inexpensive and easy for anyone to put together — and your cats will now have a completely organic plant they can nibble on whenever they want.

This dog can’t get enough of the spinning dreidel:

44. Pioneer Pet Smartcat Ultimate Scratching Post

Price Disclaimer

I have a client who has 2 of these in her home, and I am here to tell you that they are fantastic. Standing at 32 inches tall, they’re high enough for your cats to get a good, long stretch and scratch in. They look large, but for their size, they don’t take up much room. The downside is that if you have climbers, this is not going to be sturdy enough for them to perch on.

Most likely, as they make their leap down, they’re going to knock it over (I will say though, as a complete klutz, I’ve physically run into these while in my client’s home, and they haven’t budged). However, the top part really isn’t large enough to tempt any but the most stubborn “perchers.”

45. Kong Jumbler Football Toy

Price Disclaimer

Some dogs just seem to utterly destroy any toy they’re given. You almost feel like you could hand them a concrete block and they’d pulverize it. Well, there may be hope — this toy gets excellent reviews from people with several different breeds of dog, including pit bulls, Belgian Malinois and Labs. There is a squeaker and a ball inside the toy that entice dogs to play with it, but it’s extremely durable.

Most reviewers state that their dog has yet to kill this toy, although the minority do say that their dog was able to tear off a piece — or 2.

46. Interactive Toy and Food Dispenser

Price Disclaimer

I purchased this myself about 6 months ago for my cat, and it’s held up beautifully. It’s inexpensive and fun for cats.

This is very easy to use — just fill with kibble or treats, align the openings to dispense and place it on the floor for the cat. They will quickly learn that batting this ball around rewards them handsomely! I have to be completely honest, though: At 15, my cat isn’t so much about the play as he is the food.

47. Kong Wobbler Treat-Dispensing Dog Toy

Price Disclaimer

The biggest version of this toy is almost comically large. It’s tough, durable and provides great entertainment for easily bored dogs.

It’s weighted at the bottom to provide the wobble and can hold varying amounts of kibble, depending on what size Kong you purchase. The biggest downside I have personally noticed is that smaller kibbles and treats will fall out of the non-adjustable hole.

48. 3x Yeowww! 100% Organic Catnip Stinkies Sardines

Price Disclaimer

You might think to steer clear of anything with the word “Stinkies” in the name, but your cat would missing out.

These cat toys are stuffed with organic catnip, and the exterior of the toy is made up of natural cotton twill. These inexpensive sardine toys get resoundingly good reviews, and the general consensus is that cats love them.

49. Niteangel Luxury Double-Bunk Bed Hammock

Price Disclaimer

If you need gifts for ferrets or rats, this is a great option. This hammock can comfortably fit 2 ferrets or 5 adult rats.

Reviews are almost overwhelmingly positive, with people saying that the hammock is soft, durable and almost all their pets love it. It’s easy to install with clips that attach right to the cage and provides a cozy place for tuckered-out pets to cuddle and snooze.

50. Hugs Pet Products Whack-A-Mouse Cat Toy

Price Disclaimer

Remember that Whack-a-Mole game you used to love? Now there’s one for cats, and you can play too.

This fun game allows you to play with your cats by controlling the mouse. You simply sit on the side of the board and use the mouse wand to poke the mouse through the hole, intriguing and entertaining your cats. This toy is relatively inexpensive and by all accounts durable.
