Pets are lovable creatures and their owners always like to take good care of them. There are always some things that you’d have to buy as a pet owner in order to take proper care of your pets. After going through this list, you would wish that you had bought years ago because you would want to take the best care for your pet.
Protective Wax
Not many pets will agree to wear boots which is why you should always have some protective wax handy. This wax helps to protect the paws of the pets from things like ice and snow. It is the perfect thing for your pet in the winters.
Scratcher And Lounge
This gorgeous piece of furniture helps to let the pets scratch themselves and stretch out in a safe place. Also, it serves as a hip piece of furniture. “Amazing. I bought mine over a year ago now for my cat and my cats LOVE them. I have two cats, one we got as a kitten in July of 2014 and she has been just fine in keeping her claws because of this product — she knows to scratch on it and has never scratched our nice furniture! I hung them up like shelves and the cats love to climb on high to hang out on them, sleep, stretch & survey the house. My friends don’t even realize they’re cat shelves until the cats jump on them! Fast-forward over a year later and they’re still in pretty good shape. Worth the money! I picked up some L brackets at home depot to hang them and they worked like a charm.” —Jayni
Paw Plunger Paw Cleaner
You want your pet’s paws clean and your pet might not always want to take a bath. “Best money I’ve ever spent on a dog with feet. We have a goldendoodle with curly hair and large paws, and a brand-new yard on the coast that is 95% sand. In the past three months I’ve been wiping his paws ineffectively and spending most of my housekeeping time sweeping/vacuuming all the sand that he brings in. Our new veterinarian, upon hearing me whine about the situation, recommended I buy this product because she uses it with her own dogs. From the first time I used it I was sold! It looks like one of those oversized water jugs you can get at a convenience store, with a fitted insert for paws and legs. I stuck my hand (and my kids’) inside to try it out and the bristles inside are very soft, and will not hurt sensitive paw pads. I wish I’d found this years ago; it would have saved my sanity and my floors many times over. I’ve already recommended it to my friends and family with dogs who understand the struggle.” —Heather
An Orthopedic Bed
Pets get arthritis because they are always on their feet. In order to help them relax and get the proper joint support, you should buy an orthopedic bed for your pet. “My German shepherd absolutely loves it! I got the jumbo size — he’s a 90 lb dog, just for reference.” —Kelsie Johnson
Wrinkle And Tear Cleaning Paste
Dog breeds like Bulldogs, Pugs, and Frenchies get quite a lot of itching and irritation on their body. In order to ease their suffering, you should get this paste so that their wrinkles are free of said itching and irritation. “This cream is a miracle worker. My 2-year-old English bulldog had yeast in his wrinkles. I cleaned every day with hydrogen peroxide but it didn’t clear it up. It just kept it from getting worse. Then I used a mixture of hydrogen peroxide and apple cider vinegar, but nothing. I also used products from the Natural Dog Company, but my bully hated the smell. One night I came across this product. Within 24 hours of using Squishface I noticed a huge difference. Within 48 hours it was almost gone. By 72 hours it had cleared up. I clean his face before bed and apply the cream. I only use once a day and that was enough for us. I can’t say my bully loves it, because seriously what bully likes having their wrinkles cleaned? He tolerates it and I love that it worked for us. It has no smell, it’s natural, and it WORKS!” —Amazon Customer
Whistle 3 GPS And Activity Tracker
Having a GPS and activity tracker on your pet can help you keep track of your pet’s physical activity. This comes in especially helpful if you have an obese pet and would like to monitor their physical activity. “This is an amazing product! I am able to see just where my kitty is at all times. He likes to explore outside for about an hour a day, and whenever he was outside, I worried so much about him. Now, I can see just where he is at all times. Worth every penny! I LOVE IT! When I opened the package, I thought it might too big for him, but it doesn’t bother him at all.” —Amazon Customer
Handheld Pet Massager
You want your pet to be comfortable. What better way could there be to achieve such comfort other than a massage for your pet? “My dog absolutely loved this. I’ve never seen her sit still for so long and she was thoroughly disappointed when I stopped.” —Amazon Customer
A Feeding Mat
Having this mat will help you hide your pet’s food in it and you can stimulate the feeling of digging and foraging for food. This helps them to be mentally and physically return to their roots. “My picky puppy often will refuse to eat his high-quality foods, despite the tough-love approach. This is the only way he shows any interest in kibble, which we use to supplement. I mix kibble and hide a few treats to spark his interest, and he happily snacks away. It fosters his need to dig and paw. I chose this version over the fleece ones on Etsy due to the neutral color, sturdier fabric, and upcycled materials.” —Ss
Furbo Pet Camera
This is a new and intuitive way to talk to your pet. The camera is controlled through an app and you can talk to your doggo when you are at work in order to keep them happy and comfortable. “I was an hour away from home and it was sooooo wonderful to see my dogs and know they were doing ok! Then I talked to them and gave them all treats! It was incredibly cool. They went and laid back down and I watched them sleep happily while my husband drove us home — that hour drive was no longer stressful with me all kinds of anxious about the pups. I was super relaxed being able to see, talk and treat them. It works like a charm and is actually a rather attractive piece; the wooden top is a lovely touch! My family, two-legged and four-legged, absolutely adore our Furbo! Worth every cent. (The picture shows one of my girls as she hears the treat getting ready to pop out to her!)” —C. Klamert
Doggie Raincoat
You want to protect your dog from the rain. You cannot expect him or her to walk in the same pace as you under the umbrella. “Love these raincoats. Ordered three altogether. They are tough, cute, and keep my dogs dry. I have purchased other flimsy raincoats that did not keep my dogs dry. I am extremely pleased with these. The little hoods are cute too. The purpose of the raincoats are so that I only have to dry off their feet when they return from their walk. These sturdy little coats are great. And my furry kids seem to like them and and they stay in place without slipping and sliding. Fantastic price for great product. Awesome! :-)” —Barbara N.
Cat Tree House
At approximately 5 feet tall, this is the perfect decor for your house and a perfect place for your cat to relax in. “I saw this advertised on a different site for twice the price. So was happy to have found it for a more reasonable cost on Amazon. It’s a cute addition to my living room. It came in a ginormous heavy box. Was not difficult to put together by myself. The trunk is hard plastic in segments that fit over a central pole and and the levels screw onto the central pole between the trunk segments keeping them in place. It is heavy and sturdy. Good for climbing. My cat loves it. His favorite game now (a sentiment not shared by the dogs) is playing death from above. He hides behind the leaves and peeks out at the dogs. Then drops onto them like a leopard on a gazelle. Lots of fun for the cat. The dogs are slowly learning to avoid kitty’s death tree. He enjoys sharpening his claws on the grassy bit. And he will lay under the tree on the grass sometimes, like it’s a shade tree. He is getting exercise by climbing it. Now he can run right up it to the top without pausing. He gets quite the arm workout going between the levels when he dead-lifts himself with his front paws, like he’s doing dips. The dogs have noticed and again are becoming more wary. So in short: Cat gives it five stars. Dogs are wondering about the return policy.” —Mitch
Pretty Litter Box
This litter box is a bit different from your regular ones. The color changes according to the contents of your cat’s urine and it helps to detect potential health issues.
Sunscreen
It is understandable that you want to protect your pet from the sun. The product is compliant with the regulation of the FDA and it is the perfect thing to get for your pet. “As you can see in the pictures, my little Joey loves the sun. He has light skin, and has yet to get a sunburn/tan in this Texas sun since using this stuff. The spray makes it easy to apply to his belly even while he’s squirming around in my arms! I honestly don’t know why he has an issue with it; it’s a very quiet spray. Maybe he just doesn’t like smelling good! (This stuff smells much better than human sunscreen if you ask me!) I use the leftovers on my hands from rubbing his belly to cover his ears. I only put it on his belly and ears, since that’s where he’s bald. It doesn’t leave your hands sticky just as long as you use soap while washing it off of your hands. Also, my dog licks his belly/wee-wee a lot, but he doesn’t lick this sunscreen off, it may even deter him from licking himself, which is great! Overall great product!” —Danielle
Cat Feeder
This cat feeder is shaped in the form of a rat and it encourages the hunting skills in your cat. It also makes them feed more slowly and help with their eating habits. “I am taking care of two cats for a deployed military family. One of the cats prefers to be outside and hunt. I would prefer he not hunt, and since I started using these mice he is choosing to spend much more time inside!” —Mary W
Brushless Toothpaste
This toothpaste is pretty safe to be used for cats and dogs. You do not need a brush to help your doggo or cat keep bad breath away and it also helps them to keep their oral health in perfect condition. “This stuff is a miracle. One of our two dogs has especially bad halitosis. We paid over $200 getting his teeth cleaned about two months ago and was stinky again. I resorted to brushing and got nowhere but wrestling a 9 lb. dog. This is a brushless toothpaste as advertised. When it arrived the other day, used it on both dogs. Honest to god, both dogs have fresh, puppy breath and tolerate it wonderfully. Apparently dogs get very dry mouths and this eliminates that AND the bad breath.” —Petunia
