Unlike most others, this one has an easy-to-use LCD screen that allows you to set up to six meals a day consisting of different portion options, plus it has a built-in filter to keep the food fresh.

“My dog is very [skittish] with a lot,” one reviewer says, but these dental finger wipes are so much better than a toothbrush because the owner doesn’t “have to worry about him being scared.” They also work well for cats.

Each one is textured and infused with freshening, soothing ingredients like aloe, baking soda, chamomile, and coconut oil.

With its extendable rake, swiveling bin, and two large baking-soda-infused bags, you can pick up all of the poop in the yard — in one trip and without having to bend down.

With its four buttons that you can record with your own voice to customize the commands, this pet communication starter pack is a great way to train your cat or dog to ask for exactly what they want.

If your cat is experiencing stress, consider this plush toy to soothe them. Each squeeze or cuddle activates 2 minutes of purrs which them automatically turns off.

It’s also backed by more than 10,000 five-star reviews with cat parents writing things like: “We have a shelter cat who has had serious problems with human contacts. This little purple cat was the first item which really made our nervous kitty relax.” If purring functions don’t sound like a fit for your pet, it also comes in warming and nightlight versions.

This Lickin’ Layers puzzle game has almost 130,000 reviews on Amazon and has still managed to retain its 4.4-star overall rating. Most slow feeders have textured grooves that make the kibble harder to get, but this one has three layers of different textures that spin. That way, your dog has to use their problem-solving skills to figure it out, which provides mental stimulation, fights boredom, and slows eating.

With its thick, soft pile made of microfiber, this kitty litter mat is designed to trap more litter than options made from hard materials — and it’s fully machine-washable and easy to shake out.

Sprinkle a scoop of these digestive probiotics into your cat’s favorite food, and its mix of good bacteria and chicory root aims to reduce stomach pain, bloating, and digestive issues.

My cat is acting like a kitten again.”

If your dog has stomach issues, reviewers say these Active Chews probiotics are the best they’ve tried.
