Skymee Fury Bone Smart Interactive Pet Toys for Dogs Cats
$69.99 • Skymee • Get Yours Now

Skymee’s Fury Bone is an excellent toy for owners of small/medium dogs or cats. The app-controlled pet toy is not only simple to use but a lot of fun for both the owner and the pets. I love that I can use the app to get my dog running around where I want him to and not just all over the house like a Tasmanian devil. It’s great that you can either control it manually, or you can set it to automatic and still get an hour’s worth of playtime out of it for your pupper or kitty. As much fun as this was for us to play with around the house, I could see this as a really useful gift for elderly pet owners, or any pet owner with mobility issues. It can be hard to chase your pet around or even throw something to play fetch, but it is really easy to move a fingertip around your phone’s screen and create instant playtime for your furbaby. 


Skymee Petalk AI II Dog Camera Automatic Treat Dispenser, WiFi Full HD Pet Camera
$159.99 • Skymee • Get Yours Now

If you have pets and you ever leave the house, it’s easy to imagine the troubles they are getting into when you aren’t around. That’s one of the benefits of a good pet camera. The Petalk AI II is so much more than just a camera though. Yes, it’s an HD cam that you can not only pan 180 degrees, switch into night vision mode, and record pics and videos on, it is also a communication device. You can talk to your pet from your phone, through the app, and they can hear you and speak back through the 2-way microphone. Then there’s the part that gets the most fun, you can launch treats around three feet through the air to them. This not only gives them a little something special in the middle of the day, but it gives you a fun game to play when you should be working. Then, when you get home, you can even use the top of the Petalk AI II as a wireless charger for your phone. This isn’t even something it needs, but it is a nice little bonus. Set up for the camera was simple, it took maybe 2 minutes and I was up and running, shooting off little treats and panning around the room. Every pet owner should have a good pet camera, and Skymee’s Petalk AI II is a great one to have.


A Cat Thing 6-Room Modular Cat Fort
$82.42 • A Cat Thing • Get Yours Now

So, you know how you spend like a million dollars on a cat tree, only to have your beloved dictator run to hide in the box it came in? Yeah…that’s a cat thing. So, a couple of architects and cat owners decided to give their cats what they really wanted. “The Cat Thing” is a modular home for felines. And the best part is, it’s made with a paper-based, non-toxic, and environmentally friendly material! Your cat actually gets to play inside an attractive cardboard box that is super sturdy (designed using the principles of Origami) and can hold a serious amount of weight. It comes with four different modules to design with: room, living room, balcony, and ramp, all very cute with all the little books your cats will love be. You and your cat get to decide the rest. I have one cat that likes hiding under things and one that likes to perch up high and look out over his land and people. They both love this thing, and that it constantly evolves depending on our mood. 


Skymee Petalk AI Dog Treat Camera Dispenser
$119.98 • Skymee • Get Yours Now

Next to the Petalk AI II dog treat camera, our second favorite is the original. It’s a little smaller than the new version, which can be handy if you don’t have as much shelf space to put it on. The app is easy to use and the camera sets up in seconds. The camera is crystal clear, in both day and night-vision. We loved that we could call our pet over through the two-way microphone, but he could also get our attention by setting off the motion detector, sending us a notification on the phone. It was fun to use and fun for our pup. This camera also gave us a lot of peace of mind when it came to just being able to look in on our pet and make sure everything was all good. Besides, when you are stuck in an office all day, it’s a pretty great feeling to be able to turn on an app, call out to your best friend and toss them a treat to make their day. 


SKYMEE Owl Robot: Mobile Full HD Pet Camera with Treat Dispenser, Interactive Toy for Dogs and Cats
$169.99 • Skymee • Get Yours Now

The only thing better than having a pet camera that gives your cat or dog treats, let’s you see and record them, and lets you talk to them, is one that you can drive around your home. Like all of the other Skymee products that we have, it’s really easy to set up, and a lot of fun to use. We loved being able to drive the camera around the home if we didn’t know where our pet was. We could find him, talk to him, and give him a treat. We could even take him on a little walk because he’d follow the Owl around the house wherever we drove it, as long as we kept talking to him. It is also nice that they built-in a feature where you can set it up on a predetermined path so that it will bring periodic movement to the room, even when you aren’t able to drive it around yourself. If there’s one caveat that we’d give to this awesome remote-controlled feeder, it’s that it is excellent for small and medium sized dogs, and for cats. This might not be the best pet camera for hyper-aggressive dogs or very big dogs.


SKYMEE Pet Water Fountain 3L Automatic Pet Cat and Dog Drinking Fountain
$27.99 • Skymee • Get Yours Now

If you have dogs and cats, especially cats, you know that they will also prefer to drink from flowing water than from a bowl. It’s why we’ve come home so many times to faucets running and cats unwilling to kick in for the water bill. The best solution is always going to be a pet water fountain. We loved Skymee’s because it holds three liters of water. That’s enough that we know everyone is going to have something to drink all day long. It sends water in two directions, so multiple pets can drink at the same time. It also gives you three different ways that the water can come out, bubbling at the surface, streaming up like a fountain, or a combination of the two. You can play with it to see which version is the most enticing for your pet. On top of everything else, it was really quiet, so it wasn’t an annoyance to have it running all day long in the background. This is a great gift for any pet owner. 


Howligans Collapsible Dog Bowl
$10.00 • Fred and Friends • Get Yours Now

Puppers deserve stocking stuffers too, but you can’t just give them rawhide and treats. This collapsible bowl is the perfect thing to make sure you’ve always got a safe place for them to drink out of when you out on a long walk or an extended car ride. If you know anyone with a dog, this is the kind of thing they should already have but don’t. So… get it for them!
