PETMOL Recommendations

A circulating water bowl. Moving water gets some pets — cats especially — to drink more than they would from a still bowl.

The classic hollow rubber chew you can stuff with food. A simple way to keep a dog busy for a while, and it survives most chewers.

The stuffable rubber KONG again — a durable chew you fill with kibble or paste to keep a dog occupied. A different listing from the one above.

A washable, non-toxic chew toy from Fida aimed at strong chewers. The kind of thing that survives a dog that destroys everything else.

A set of cotton rope toys for tugging and chewing. Cheap to replace, and useful for a bit of shared play that also helps with teeth.

A silica cat litter that changes colour to flag possible urinary issues. Clumping, low-dust, and light to carry compared with clay.

A reusable pet-hair remover for sofas, beds and car seats. No sticky sheets to run out of — you empty a little chamber and reuse it.

A small portable carpet and upholstery cleaner. The size people reach for when a pet has an accident on a rug or the couch.

The reusable pet-hair roller again, this time as a direct product link. You empty a small chamber instead of buying sticky refills.

A brushless, rechargeable handheld vacuum. Handy for quick pickups of fur, litter scatter and crumbs without dragging out the big one.

A cordless vacuum built for upholstery and pet hair, with an easy-empty bin. Good for sofas, car seats and stairs.

A small plug that puts a lamp, a fan or an aquarium pump on a schedule from your phone. Handy for keeping a routine while you are out.

An inexpensive indoor camera. People often use one to check in on a pet that stays home alone during the day.

An indoor pet camera that can toss a treat and send a phone alert when it hears barking — made specifically for watching dogs while you are away.

Rechargeable stick-on light bars with a motion sensor and dimming. Useful over a kitchen counter, inside a closet, or by a pet-feeding station.

Tempered-glass screen protector with an install frame. A cheap bit of insurance for a phone that gets dropped around the house.

A power strip with surge protection and several outlets — handy behind a desk or a TV, or wherever the chargers pile up.

A small fast USB-C wall charger. The kind of thing you buy a second one of so there is always one packed for travel.

Apple’s wireless earbuds. A non-pet pick — useful for calls while walking a dog with your hands free.

A weatherproof cover and multi-outlet extender for an outside socket — for a yard light, a pump or a heated water bowl in winter.

A pair of angled wall mounts that let a eufy SoloCam sit in a corner and cover more of a room or yard.

A small moving pet camera you can drive from your phone to follow a pet around the house. A more playful take than a fixed camera.

A holder that clips an Apple AirTag onto a collar. Not a GPS tracker — it helps you find a pet that is nearby, or that someone else has found.

An insulated stainless bottle with a spout you can either sip or swig from. Keeps water cold through a long walk.

A waterproof case that slides an Apple AirTag onto a collar strap. Like the holder above, it helps locate a nearby pet — it is not a live GPS tracker.

A protective case for an Apple AirTag with a keyring. A third take on keeping an AirTag on a bag, a set of keys or a leash.

A wired over-ear headset with a boom mic. One of our non-pet picks — comfortable for long calls or gaming.

A widely used whey protein powder. Not pet-related — just something we keep in the kitchen.

Small hydrocolloid patches you put on a blemish overnight. A PETMOL find for the bathroom cabinet, not the pet.

A compact ice maker that does not need a plumbing hookup — you pour water in and it makes ice in a few minutes.
