Promising review: "I can't rave about this vacuum enough. It's powerful but manageable, according to the type of floor you want to use it on. It's durable. It takes me half the time to clean the floor with how easily this glides along, and at the end of it all, it's so easy to empty the dirt from the canister. And most of all, this thing DOESN'T GET HAIR TANGLED IN IT! I've had maybe 1 strand that stuck. Easily removable. No more scissors and pulling hair out of the bristles with this thing. Thank you, Shark, for making the best vacuum I've ever owned in my life!" —LPetal86

Promising review: "I cannot praise this product enough! Removes stains from their root, pulling dirt, urine, and hair from my carpet, leaving it spotless. Our 3-year-old Yorkie has had a few accidents inside the house, and this is the remedy for all of those unfortunate times when she was unable to go outside or simply did not want to go (as stubborn Yorkies sometimes do)." —Ivan Alfredo

Promising review: "We have four large cats ranging from 20 pounds to 8 pounds, and they all love this cat tree! It has plenty of space for them all to nap without touching, and large enough platforms for napping if they want to touch. Our girl cat is the queen of the group, or at least she thinks so, and she enjoys sitting or napping on the tallest shelf like the queen she is! The little white mice that hang from the platforms are a huge hit; poor things have been batted and chewed and basically gutted every day since we put them up. The different size napping platforms are a big hit, and the little privacy cubbies are perfect for hiding from attacking foes! Overall, our cats think this is the best thing they have ever played with. It was super easy to put together and has held up to all the commotion four cats can cause. They are indoor cats, and it looks good with the green desert theme we have for their indoor playground. Overall, couldn’t love it more!!!! 10 out of 10 stars." —joanna crudo

Price: $79.99+ (originally $146.99+ (this is a Prime-exclusive deal); available in four colors)

Promising review: "I am overall really happy with this cat litter. The scent isn't overwhelming, and it is currently being used for my household of two cats. I have an automatic robot litter box, and it seems to scoop it quite nicely, and I like that it doesn't stick to the sides of the litter box. The litter isn't too heavy either. I don't like the lightweight stuff that you can buy because I don't think it clumps as well; however, this stuff works great! The texture of this letter is high quality in my opinion, and it has worked the best for me in terms of durability and longevity, and also helps with the smell. The dust is very minimal whenever it comes to scooping." —Hannah

Price: $19.99 for two 18.5-pound boxes (originally $33.59; this is a Prime-exclusive deal)

Promising review: "I bought this for a long trip with my cat and the top door alone was worth it. Getting him into his old carrier was a full-on wrestling match every time — front door only, him bracing all four legs against the opening. With this one, I just lift him in from the top, and he’s in before he’s figured out what happened. No fighting, no scratches, no twenty minutes of chasing him around the apartment. It’s also a lot roomier than I expected. I put a folded blanket down to make it cozier, and he still had plenty of space to stand up, turn around, and stretch out. He actually slept for most of the drive, which has never happened before. Feels solid too. The plastic doesn’t flex, the door latches securely, and there’s good ventilation on all sides so I could see him the whole time. Really glad I got this. Made the trip so much less stressful for all of us." —Hera

Promising review: "I have a large dog, so tiny/thin bags are a hard no for me. These are a good size, easy enough to separate from the roll, and most importantly, I haven’t had issues with them leaking during normal use. They look good, feel good, and they work. You get enough in the box that I’m not constantly reordering them, which is probably my favorite part. Nothing exciting here, just a solid everyday dog-owner purchase that I would buy again." —Hannah

Promising review: "I cannot say enough good things about this camera! This camera has literally changed my life when it comes to checking in on my pets and anybody else that’s in the living room. I can do it from anywhere. I’m at work, other people's houses, out of town, or anything! I’ve bought two of them, and they’re very, very easy to set up and link to your Wi-Fi. I have mine on top of a curio cabinet in my living room, so I can see the entire living room and kitchen. The notifications are very accurate whenever there’s movement in the house, as long as you have it armed. This is 100% worth the money!" —Kimber Turner

Promising review: "This contraption was created by a WIZARD. I have a German Shepherd mix that leaves a thick layer of fur on EVERYTHING. I will do a full groom and deep de-shedding, and she will be blowing coat the next day. (GSD owners will understand lol) I came to terms with half of my bed having a peelable layer of fur on it at all times, and both of her dog beds, that I could probably have shoveled the fur off of. I tried for YEARS to find something to fix this. THIS. THING. IS. AMAZING. How did I go almost 6 years with this pup and not have this? I am SHOOK. The issue with the handle most complain about isn't that serious... You just move your hand up the handle a little bit. I almost wept with joy when this thing eradicated 95% of the fur that was upsetting me for YEARS now." —Bliss Ann

Price: $16.85 (originally $23.85; available in four colors)

Promising review: "I waited over a month to write a review — this air purifier is amazing!! It’s one of those products that you don’t understand how much of a difference it makes until you get one. I have two cats,and my house is all carpet, so the house can smell stagnant sometimes, especially if the AC is off. One of my cats also has asthma, so I got this air purifier mostly for her, but it’s made such a HUGE difference in the way my home smells. Since having it, my house has consistently smelled fresh, clean, and odorless. Even after forgetting to clean the litter boxes, my house has not smelled like cat litter since I’ve had it. It’s very easy to set up. I bought a little plant stand to put it on so it wouldn’t be on the carpet. It’s very quiet, and the app is easy to use. It tells you the life of your filter, which is super helpful, and these filters last for a long time! You can set it up to be on a schedule, so you can set it up once and just forget about it. I recommend this air purifier to everyone. I’m NEVER worried about my house smelling anything but clean now. I would repurchase this a thousand times over." —hailee

Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping editor Melanie Aman has to say: "After working from home for the last three years, I've realized how much I value the air quality in my apartment. I live in an older building (think turn-of-the-century old), and there are lots of little holes and crevices where dirt, dust, and allergens can creep in. Coupled with the terrible air quality we've experienced in NYC because of wildfires in Canada a few months ago, the air in my home often triggers a sore throat, congestion, and sneezing fits in the morning. I have two air purifiers already, but I realized that buying replacement filters is ANNOYING and surprisingly expensive. The fact that this Shark air purifier can clean the air and doesn't need a filter replacement for five years is just *chef's kiss*. I keep this in the small office off the kitchen to help filter out odors from cooking, and it does a fantastic job. It also comes with a scented cartridge designed to keep your home smelling fresh. (Unfortunately, the scent gives me a headache, so I don't often have it running, but it does smell lovely!)"

Promising review: "My daughter has two cats with very concentrated urine. We have tried everything: special litter, flowing water, and an automatic litter box. Even though these all helped, it wasn't until I finally purchased this item for my large living area where the litter box was that I no longer smelt anything. I might get an occasional whiff of something, but it quickly vanishes. Also, fish smell — GONE. It does have a nice HEPA filter so it helps with allergies." —TCM2020

Promising review: "This is a fantastic machine!! It was so easy to clean. Unbelievably easy. Everything comes apart. Everything. I was able to get the dirty water tank clean, the rollers, the front suction thingy. My old machine was trash, I couldn't clean anything without using skewer sticks and forget trying to clean the rollers! I am so glad I read all the reviews and asked Alexa for comparisons. Also, I was able to do one room with one tank of water! Usually, I had to refill like four times. The machine is definitely smaller than the one I had before (not same brand). I was skeptical of the water tank, but it held more than I thought!" —Stephanie Quezada

Promising review: "Yup, saw it on TikTok and had to buy it. My car's upholstery was so dirty from my dogs and years of NOT getting it deep cleaned. This is a game-changer. I should've taken a before and after because it was awesome. Not to mention how satisfying it is to see the dirty water get sucked back into the tank. Easy to prep. Easy to use. Easy to clean. I definitely recommend. This will be perfect for other things in the house as well because if it can tackle MY car with two big dogs, it's gold." —Taylor L.

Promising review: "These puppy pads are basically FEMA for my floors. Six layers of 'NOT TODAY, SATAN.' 😂 My dog can unleash absolute chaos, and somehow my floor survives untouched. Big, absorbent, leak-proof, and apparently engineered by people who have personally witnessed the horrors of puppyhood." —Tiffany R. Roberts

Promising review: "Yes...I didn't stutter: I have a 10-cat household. We have six MASSIVE litter boxes that are all in some form of cat furniture that helps keep them out of sight. We have two cats who care nothing about covering their business, and someone is CONSTANTLY blowing up the litter box. I've tried probably at least 100 things over the years to try and help, and with little luck. So I was VERY SKEPTICAL, especially since it tells you to just sprinkle 3-4 tablespoons on top of clean litter, then just 1 to 2 tablespoons after each cleaning. Now, like I said, we have very big litter boxes (two full-grown 11-pound cats could fit in at the same time if they wanted). So I sprinkled 5 tablespoons in clean litter because they're bigger than normal, then did 2 tablespoons in maintenance each day I cleaned. After a week, we put all new litter in, and I purposely didn't clean the litter box the day before it was time to put new in just to see how it did. 

"I had a friend or two come by and see if they could smell the litter boxes. Cat people know you get used to the smell, but others that come by can smell it...and absolutely NOBODY could smell the boxes!!! We haven't smelled them being blown up, even the ones that don't cover their stuff up. This stuff is light as air, has a VERY pleasant scent that isn't overpowering but is strong enough to smell. I can't give this product praise enough! It is worth EVERY SINGLE CENT!!" —Kindle Customer

Promising review: "This is so cute and the cats love it! It fits perfectly on top of my dryer, where the kits like to lay. Two can easily snuggle together on it. Very soft. Used a crib sheet to cover the outer fleece, in an attempt to keep it nicer and cleaner longer. Easy to change out the crib sheet as needed. Also put inner stuffing in garbage bags before stuffing into fleece cover, hoping this will keep the stuffing cleaner longer. The bed itself is lightweight. During cold winter nights, the kitty babies will DEF be warm!" —Danielle

Promising review: "I couldn't be happier with it! This bowl is everything I was looking for — durable, stylish, and practical. The stainless steel is thick and sturdy, and it feels much more durable than standard pet bowls. It’s also insulated, which helps keep my dog’s water cooler for longer, which is great, especially on warm days. The no-tip, no-slip design is a game-changer. My dog tends to push her bowl around while drinking, but thanks to the rubberized bottom, it stays firmly in place, no more spills! I also love the Riptide color. it’s a beautiful, modern shade that looks great in my home. Overall, this bowl is a fantastic investment for pet owners who want something high-quality and reliable." —Mackenzie Higgins

Promising review: "5 stars from Jazzy the cat. I spread catnip on it for her every couple of days. She scratches and naps on the lounger every day!! When it's worn out, I will replace it for her." —catmom

Price: $27.44+ (originally $39+ (this is a Prime-exclusive deal; non-members can get it for slightly more); available in four patterns) — and see all the Licker Store deals here

Promising reviews: "Works. Keeps my excessive groomer, who licks so much that he causes wounds from doing that. Size large. Can eat, drink, and use litter box normally." —Tara DePasquale

"My 5-month-old kitty had to get surgery, and the cone they originally had him in looked SO uncomfortable. He hated it. This little soft collar is a huge upgrade. He feels comfortable, he doesn’t try to take it off, the price is reasonable, it’s easy for me to remove and put back on when he eats, and the small size was perfect for him." —Lily Scott

Price: $9.99 (typically $12.99, available in three fruit prints, a penguin print, and a fish print)

Jenae: My cats ADORE this toy and beg me to pull it out so they can play with it almost every morning. They love batting at the butterfly — its erratic movements drive them wild — but they also love laying on their side to catch the feather that zooms left, right, and all around. And sometimes when they're tired of playing, they literally just lay on it (as shown above)...they love it so much. Side note: I influenced my brother's partner to buy this toy for her cat, and even his senior pug ended up liking it. 😂

The fact that most of the feather toy is hidden underneath the patterned cover (so they can't see what's controlling it) is a genius design, and I'll also mention that my cats haven't been able to destroy this toy yet either — though the brand does sell replacement parts thankfully. The battery lasts a long time, and it charges conveniently via USB-C, which I appreciate!

Reviewers say it works for both small and bigger cats alike! One reviewer's tip: Make sure the side without the grooved lid is facing a wall so that cats can't jump out that way (the grooved side is what prevents litter tracking).

Note that if you have a senior cat with limited mobility, you'd want to provide a litter box with low, easy access for that cat.

Promising review: "We have three cats and have to manage a silly amount of cat politics. We've learned that having a higher number of litter boxes, and spread to multiple locations, cuts way down on bullying and helps cats to feel safe, [as they are] instinctively territorial about where they put their scent and feel vulnerable when they're 'in the act'. This cat box helps to be able to have boxes in rooms of the house where a cat box would feel garish, not to mention the litter mess. It took a little while for my cats to try it out, but they're using it now and don't get to kick the gravel out everywhere (I swear they do it on purpose)." —Dism

Price: $31.49 (originally $39.99; deal available for three colors)

Promising review: "These were a hit with all the kitties in the family. I got a case of them to pass out to three houses of kitties, and everyone loved them! I split one between two kitties on the side of their dinner, and they were soooo excited. These must smell amazing, because the cats come running when I open them. Highly recommend trying out this new product if your kitties already love the Churus, toppers, gravies, or other such treats!!!" —M. Hayes

Price: $8.29 for a four-pack with 8 cups (typically $10.36; available in four flavors and in larger multipacks as well as variety packs)

Promising review: "Very sturdy and my cats love it for naps and people/bird watching. Being able to fold it up at night makes it easy to shut blinds and curtains! Both my cats weigh 10 pounds each and it hasn’t budged once." —Brooke

Promising review: "These toys are also versatile and suitable for various small bird species. If you’re looking for an affordable way to enrich your bird’s environment, this set is a must-have! Highly recommended for any bird parent who wants to keep their pets happy and engaged! —007 reviewer
