The 10 best gadgets for your pets

4 hours ago7 min read

Here at Engadget, we're a team of certified pet fanatics, a delightful chaos of cat whisperers, dog devotees, and champions of all creatures great and small—from chirping birds to the quiet dignity of a well-cared-for rat. Our shared obsession extends beyond belly rubs and treat time; we are equally passionate about finding the perfect gadgets to spoil our furry, feathered, and scaled family members.This curated list is a love letter to that passion, a collection of finds that range from the beautifully simple, like a snuggly Berkshire blanket that becomes an instant security object, to the brilliantly high-tech, such as the Petcube Bites 2 camera, a $30 marvel that lets you not only watch your pet but also toss them a treat and chat with them from miles away, turning a moment of loneliness into a game of catch. We've tested an automatic feeder from PETLIBRO that banishes the 5 a.m. 'I'm starving' meows with military precision, and we've watched our cats conquer the Yaheetech cat tree with the focused ambition of a mountaineer.For the clever pups, the StarMark Bob-a-Lot toy turns mealtime into a stimulating puzzle, while the Frisco Seek & Discover mat engages their natural foraging instincts, providing mental gymnastics that are just as tiring as a long walk. We've even rethought the humble litter box with PrettyLitter, a health-monitoring crystal litter that acts as an early-warning system, and we've engineered proper palaces for smaller pets with the expansive, modular habitats from Guinea Pig Cage Company.And let's be honest, the best gadget for any pet owner might just be the Shark Navigator vacuum, a workhorse dedicated to the endless battle against fur tumbleweeds and tracked-in litter. Each product on this list comes with the highest seal of approval: the wag of a tail, a contented purr, or the quiet curiosity of a pet discovering something new, all vetted by our own menagerie to bring joy to the pet lover in your life—even if that pet lover is you.
