1. A cactus scratching post that's so darn pretty, people may be shocked to realize it's not a piece of home decor but actually a scratching post that'll keep your cat from ripping up your beloved couch.

Chewy

Promising review: "I'm happy I got this scratching post. I needed a scratching post that my big orange cat wouldn't pull over when he used it. Not only is the tall cactus a good size for him, but the base is wide (and heavy) enough that it stays standing when he uses it. Putting the pieces together was easy. It only took a few minutes. As a bonus, while most scratching posts are ugly, this one is not. I wish more cat furniture was this cute and not embarrassing to have out on display in my house." –jenmb

Price: $22.99+ (available in three sizes) 

2. Or a heavy duty 76-inch cat tree, if your cat is plagued with boredom and needs a place to rest, scratch, and play that isn't on you or your furniture.

Chewy

Promising review: "I was looking for a cat tree that was big enough to handle grown adult cats. Most cat trees I saw featured young little kittens in their pictures, and you can tell many cat trees are just too small to hold an adult cat comfortably. This cat tree is perfect. The size is great — so roomy and spacious! And so sturdy, the quality is amazing. Considering all of this, the price is unbeatable. I would recommend this cat tree in a heartbeat! My kitties love it!" –Leob

Price: $144 (available in two colors)

3. An aquarium filter for removing ammonia and nitrates from tank water so your turtles and fish stay nice and healthy. That means you can spend less time cleaning their tank and more time watching them dilly-dally around.

Chewy

Promising review: "We used two other filter systems before buying this one, and it did the trick for us! Crystal clear water." –Trish

Price: $108.99 (originally $119.39)

4. Professional grooming clippers that'll cut and style Fido's hair with ease. And unlike Fido, these clippers are quiet.

Chewy

The set includes a hair clipper, manual, four limit combs, adapter, a cleaning brush, and lubricating oil.

Promising review: "This cutting machine is exactly what I needed. It has strong, consistent power, cuts precisely without pulling. It comes well-equipped with several guide combs, a charging cable, a brush, and oil. Additionally, the ergonomic design makes it very comfortable to use throughout the entire cut. Easy to clean and perfect for both personal and professional use. Definitely a great purchase for its quality and price!" –Ashley

Price: $49.99

5. A spot flea treatment for cats, because it'll keep fleas off your cat and out of your house. That way you won't have any pesky pests bothering you and your fur baby during cuddle time.

Chewy

Promising review: "Fleas became a big problem this spring for the indoor/outdoor cat that adopted me. Unable to get him to a vet, I had to rely on over-the-counter RX. Chewy helped me out when the first product was a bust. With Advantage, the cat stopped scratching almost immediately, and my sanity returned. It's been three weeks now, and I still see no fleas." –FurMom14

Price: $16.98+ per dose (available in three dosages)

6. Some immune system bites for dogs that are packed with wild-caught Alaskan salmon and probiotics, so your dog stays healthy between vet visits.

Chewy

Promising review: "My dog Charlie scratches and chews all over himself almost constantly. Since putting him on this chew daily, his symptoms have greatly reduced. He has only been using the product a week and every day shows improvement. I'm hoping in a few days he'll be symptom-free. Furthermore, he thinks he's getting a daily treat and is so excited when I offer him his daily dose. I highly recommend Aller-Immune Bites!" –Charlie

Price:  $32.97 for 90 (available in three flavors and four quantities)

7. An artfully designed elevated cat bed sure to fit with your mid-century modern aesthetic perfectly and help contain cat fur to their bed instead of... everywhere else in your house.

Chewy

Promising review: "All three of our cats love this bed. We have more than enough cat furniture, but I purchased this because I thought the materials would be kinder to the longhairs’ fur. Carpeted cat beds tend to mat their fur. This bed does not, as the materials are soft and smooth. This little bed is well-made, sturdy, and the cushion is machine washable in cold water; air dry. I would purchase this again, as it is a quality product." –FoldMom 

Price: $39.99

8. An ultra-tough rubber ball that's a favorite for doggos and their parents because they're impossible to destroy and last ~forever.~ That means no more picking up shredded tennis balls.

MochasMom / Chewy, MalMom / Chewy

Promising review: "If you have a dog that is wild about playing ball and loves to chew them up, then you need these balls. My chocolate Labrador cannot destroy these and he loves them! Yay! These are absolutely the best; I've been buying these for about five years now, and they do not wear out. We only reorder them because he loses them in the river or buries them and they can’t be found for a few years! Thank you, Chuckit, for a wonderful ball, and thank you, Chewy, for having these in stock!" —Kathy

Price: $9.95+ for two (available in three sizes and packs of four)

9. An orthopedic cat and dog bed with a removable, machine-washable cover and a wraparound bolster that will help your darling angels feel more secure so you can get everything on your to-do list done while your pet snoozes away. Reviewers say these are a big hit with pets who like to have an extra cuddly and cozy environment to sleep in.

Odie / Chewy

Promising review: "I bought the XL bed for my 55-pound husky mix. My dog prefers the bolster-style bed for prime cuddling sessions. The quality is top-notch. The center is extremely soft, and the structure of the bed is rigid enough to support my pup all day without feeling like plastic. Overall, this bed exceeded all my needs. He now has a bed in every room, and this one is by far his favorite." —DoYouHaveChangeForADollar

Price: $63.99+ (available in sizes M–XL and two colors)

10. A pair of grooming gloves that'll gently massage your pet at bath time and also capture more hair than a brush — wet or dry! People also rely on these for times when you need a softer touch for sensitive areas or for kitties and puppers who don't like brushes.

MyCatsNameIsNikke / Chewy

Promising review: "Our pup hated the normal brush. It took two of us to brush him — one to hold him awkwardly while he squirmed and one to try to brush whatever we could reach. These gloves are a game changer. I started petting him with them while he chewed on a toy and he even seemed to enjoy it! They work great for getting all the hair out, too — better than a brush. He has an undercoat and looked like a new dog when I was done." —Alison

Price: $24.98 (originally $29.99; available in sizes Junior—XL and three colors)

11. A cat harness with extra-strong Velcro that gently secures even the squirmiest of cat explorers. It's super soft and made from cotton with an undyed lining that's good for cats with allergies.

LauraJo / Chewy

Promising review: "My 20-week-old kitten and I love this harness. It is very well made, attractive, easy to put on, and very secure. He would wear it all day if I let him!" —Lynda

Price: $27.96+ (available in four sizes and seven colors)

12. A nonskid slow-feeder bowl to help your pupper pace themselves at mealtime, which can help reduce regurgitation that can cause a big mess.

Chewy

Promising review: "Our Zoey was a fast eater. By fast, I mean her food was gone in less than a minute. As she aged, we noticed her vomiting and belching more, in part because she was eating so fast. Once we purchased this bowl, it forced her to slow down. It was perfect for our needs. She is enjoying her food, has stopped belching after eating, and we have not had any vomiting issues." —Robyn

Price: $5.52+ (originally $14.99+; available in two sizes)

13. A dog and cat carrier bag with mesh panels and a spring wire frame that's approved by most airlines. The furry-lined bottom will help keep your buddy extra comfortable while you travel, so you can relax. Pro-tip for you reptile lovers: it's great for bearded dragons, too!

Chewy

Promising review: "Such an improvement over the large plastic carriers I used to use. Both my cats love these bags and will hang out in them and nap in them if I leave them out after a trip. I think they're just the right size for them to feel cozy and safe. The two entry points are really handy too. I love that they fold flat for storage, too, since my apartment is pretty small. Would highly recommend!" —Kate

Price: $47.99 (originally $73.99; available in sizes M—L and two colors)

14. A ThunderShirt anxiety vest to make sure your pup doesn't panic next time a storm blows through. It won't restrict their movement, but it will make them feel like they're wearing a hug. Let cozy time commence!

Chewy

It can also help calm your pup during fireworks, separation, travel, vet visits, grooming, and more.

Promising review: "I bought this to replace a very old ThunderShirt. This shirt is essential in helping our Bostie withstand the thunderstorms in our area. The velcro panels allow me to snuggle him up comfortably, and it makes him feel more secure." —Wanda

Price: $44.99+ (available in sizes XXS–L, XL, and four colors)

15. An aquarium cleaning magnet because the water should stay ~inside~ the aquarium when you're cleaning it — not all over your clothes. This magnet removes algae efficiently from both glass and acrylic aquariums, and reviewers say it won't stress your fish out during use.

Chewy

Promising review: "Works great. Very easy to use on all my tanks! I no longer have to climb on a stepladder or get water all over the place! It also doesn’t bother my fish. I highly recommend it to anyone who loves tropical fish as a hobby." —Miri

Price: $10.60+ (originally $11.49+; available in sizes S–L)

16. A bag of orchard grass hay with a sweet smell and taste your rabbit, guinea pig, or chinchilla will love. This hay is soft, high fiber, and low protein. Reviewers with allergies say this is a great alternative to timothy hay.

Rebecca / Chewy

Promising review: "I react really badly to timothy hay. Orchard grass hay has very similar nutritional content to timothy hay but causes less of an allergic reaction in humans. My pets have been using it for one day so far. I'm not sneezing anymore and they are devouring it. I'll be buying this from now on!" —KerriT

Price: $11.99+ (available in five sizes)

17. A deodorizer that's safe to use on all surfaces and that reviewers swear by for de-funking even the most stubborn stenches.

Chewy

Promising review: "I had been searching for a cleaner for my yard for quite some time. I have two Great Danes, and their potty habits can be, well, smelly. I’ve gone through the expensive cleaners all the way to the cheap ones, and none of them worked until this. I was able to clean my yard (that is artificial grass), and there is no more urine smell. I highly recommend this." —Heidi

Price: $24.95

18. A ceramic reptile heat emitter that reviewers say does an excellent job regulating temperature with the precision you need to keep your cold-blooded friend happy and warm. Also, because it doesn't emit any light, you can use it 24/7 without interrupting your (or your pet's) sleep.

Chewy, CevicheBellysMommy / Chewy

Promising review: "This has changed everything for my bearded dragon. He's a much happier, healthier lizard. The climate is so important for these little guys, and my other bulbs just weren't doing the job. But this does. Very pleased." —PeytonGannon

Price: $14.30+ (available in three sizes)

19. A stainless-steel fountain to make sure your fluffy friend stays hydrated all day. Just think about all the time you're going to save from not having to walk back and forth filling up their water bowl.

Chewy

It includes a water fountain, filter, cord, and adapter.

Promising review: "I am obsessed with this fountain! It holds a ton of water, is super quiet, and I love that it’s stainless steel. At first, my cat wasn’t a huge fan of it because of the faucet piece. Once I removed it, he was obsessed. Both of my cats love it. Once you remove the faucet, you can sort of hear the water running, but it’s a peaceful sound, not annoying at all. Literally like a waterfall lol. I’d recommend it to anyone! I’ve had it for a month and haven’t experienced a single issue, super easy to put together as well." —Mya

Price: $39.99

20. A customizable metal ID tag with a unique design that attaches directly to your pet's collar — no more jingling while you're trying to work or sleep!

Chewy

It's perfect for cats, small dogs, and iguanas.

Price: $24.94 (available in three colors)

21. A dust bath house to contain your chinchilla's messy bathing routine. It has a rounded bottom for your chin' to roll around in, and is easy to wash with just soap and water. Plus, your furry critter will look adorable in it.

Chinchilla lover / Chewy

Promising review: "My chinchilla and degu love this bath house. The rounded bottom is perfect for them to roll around in their dust bath. I use Oxbow Poof! dust, as it has the finest particles and works best for my kiddos. This bath house lasts forever too, I've had mine for nine years now and just wash it out with warm soapy water when needed." —CatW

Price: $19.99 (originally $25.99)

22. And a container of blue cloud dust bath to keep your spunky little chinchilla soft, fluffy and oil-free with minimal effort on your part.

Chewy, River / Chewy

Promising review: "I have tried many dust baths with our chinchilla and I honestly have never been more satisfied than with this brand. Our chinchilla sneezes and itches less and it makes his fur look so fresh, so soft, so clean, and so shiny! Not to mention, he absolutely popcorns at the sound of it in his pan. Worth every star!" —ChinLoverzPA

Price: $11.49

23. A styptic powder for dogs, cats, and birds that'll help your buddy stop bleeding from minor cut and scrapes. It's perfect for clipping wings and nails, and for superficial skin injuries. This product has no alcohol, so it won't cause unnecessary stinging.

Chewy

Promising review: "This is a must-have in our pet first aid kit. We keep this on hand for nail trims as well as if one of our pets gets a cut. It aids in stopping the bleeding and I highly recommend having it on hand at all times. We have rabbits, chickens, dogs and cats — it's safe for all of them." —Diona

Price: $9.77

24. A bottle of cologne spray for days when you don't have time to give your dog a bath. Just a spray of this will leave them feeling and, more importantly, smelling clean. Fresh floral scent > wet dog smell.

Chewy

Promising review: "Love this cologne spray for my pups! Makes them smell so fresh and clean! It doesn’t seem to bother them when I spray it on them! Would definitely recommend!" —Ashley

Price: $10.69 (also available in a baby powder scent)

25. A trio of stuffing-less toys for your pup to chew on without making a complete mess of your living room. You're welcome.

Chewy

One of my dogs is a Boston Terrier who likes long walks, ripping apart her stuffed toys to reveal the squeaker inside, and getting fluff in every room of the house. If your pup is anything like mine, these toys are sure to give them the chewing satisfaction they crave without creating a lot of clean-up for us dog parents.

Promising review: "I thought our Labs would have these pulled apart minutes after getting these. They are thin and smaller than expected. But... They are strong, and they have not pulled the squeaker out yet!! They tug on them and swing them around, and they have held up wonderfully!!" —Mardi

Price: $12.39

26. A Pet Genie waste disposal system that'll keep odors from puppy pads, diapers, cat litter, and poop at bay. Use it indoors or outdoors and rest easy knowing it's got a locking lid so you don't have to worry about your pet or kids accidentally knocking it over.

Chewy

Promising review: "Love the endless bag. Collect the poop all through week from two dogs in my backyard and on garbage day it goes away and a new bag all ready. No smell, no waste, and only a couple of minutes a day. LOVE!" —Cheryl

Price: $54.99
