Cat Drinking Fountain
A kitty fountain with different ways to drink water to suit different types of drinkers:a stream with a spout, bubbling top, and calm flowThe fountain doesn't splash water because it has ears and paws that make it easy to pick up. The triple action filter ensures that your cat's water is clean, and the adorable cat nose lights up when it's time to refill.
It’s very quiet which I love. I refill the water every other day just to keep it from going red. Super easy to assemble and the kittens love it. Our younger kitten, 3 months, did have to stand up on her back legs a little to reach the spout but she’s growing into it now!.. Gabriell Green

Thermo Lookout Pod Heated Cat Bed
A thermo cat pod that your cat will love to cuddle up in on chilly days and provides low, gentle warmth. Additionally, it is effective for small dogs.
I've been a fan of K&H cat beds for years now, especially the heated ones for my senior cats and my sphynx. Unfortunately one of my younger cats urinated in one of their regular pod beds and after weeks order a new heated pod bed so the sphynx would have two again since the pods are their favorite of trying different products, I could not get the urine smell out of it. So that led me to needing toated beds. I came across this look-out pod bed and decided to order 2 instead of just the one I needed. The cats seem to have an easier time getting into these versus the older K&H pods, and it's easier for them to be able to look in to see if the bed is occupied or not. Easy to clean (unless your cat urinates in it, lol). Definitely 5 stars and worth buying!....Mary

Easy Multi-Step Pet Stairs For High Beds
I ordered this so that my son's new puppy can get on his bed by herself. He broke his arm and cannot lift the growing Husky / German Shepherd mix pup easily. It only took a few minutes for her to get the hang of climbing up! Putting a treat on each step helped. :) But going down? It's steeper than she would like. She's tumbled a few times. But being a puppy, that didn't affect her ... or deter her. She'll get it! If they weren't this steep, they would extend too far into the room to make the room navigable.
When the puppy is too big for these steps, I will move them to a different room for the cats to use. The assembly couldn't have been easier - my 12-year-old son put these stairs together by himself and toted them down the hall to his brother's bedroom for him. My son then proceeded to dance on them, up and down and up and down the steps, testing their durability and showing the cats and dogs how to use them. They closely resemble the cat tower furniture throughout the rest of the house, but are SO MUCH more sturdy! I highly recommend these steps to anyone with a critter that craves independence. Or a new puppy owner with a broken arm. Whichever!.. Kasee Johnson

ONE OF THE BEST INVESTMENT I EVER MADE
The first thing I want to say about this rig is that it was actually FUN to put together. It's like a giant Tinker Toy puzzle! The best part is that, since everything just snaps together, if you screw something up it's not hard to backtrack and fix it. Honestly, the hardest part was figuring out how to zip the netting around the frame. :) Now, here's why I got this outstanding set-up and how I use it.
i live in a second-floor apartment that has a window opening onto a beautiful veranda. When I moved in I had an older female cat who was very quiet and cautious, so I could let her have free access to the veranda without worrying she'd do something stupid. When she died it took me a couple of years to be ready to love a new kitty, but then I found myself with a 5-month-old male kitten (Norman) who constantly leaps before he looks and isn't afraid of *anything*, even when he should be. I didn't trust him to be on the veranda without trying to leap onto the roof or get himself stuck in a tree or carried off by owls, so I bought this set-up.
And OMG, does he love it.I bought the tunnel to go with it, to use as an access point, so I could leave the big part (I call it Norman's jungle gym, but my neighbors call it the Bates Motel) on the veranda. It works beautifully. He goes in and out at will, and loves to nap in both the tunnel cube and the rig itself. I used some heavy-duty staples to attach the gym to the floor of the veranda, and even in storm winds it's amazingly stable, though if it weren't sheltered by the veranda I wouldn't risk leaving it up 24/7. Norman's out there at least half the time, and I love that he can get sun and fresh air and watch the birds and lizards without my having to worry he's going to do something catastrophically stupid. And of course the birds and lizards like that he all he can do is watch. :)
I can't say enough good things about this product. It's surprisingly sturdy, especially considering how easy it is to put together. Norman's a heavy little guy, and even as I was assembling the rig he was climbing all over it and swinging from the netting, but two weeks later it still looks brand-new -- no holes, tears, snags, or any evidence it's in daily use by a very energetic kitten. It's perfect way to let your cat enjoy the outdoors without getting hurt or stuck. Highly recommended!... Jane Ryder

Teach N Treat Toy
FUN TOY BUT MORE FOR YOUR ENJOYMENT:
I'll be the first to admit it, my guinea pigs are dumb. I've had smart piggies before, but these two just try to bite (or pee) their way out of all their problems. It gets a little predictable, so I bought them this treat board to get them to use their tiny brains for once.
So far only Roxie (my 5 year old pig) has been able to solve level 1 sometimes, but not every time. After 5 minutes of watching them try to figure it out I usually re-show them that yes, the blue disc moves, and that helps them figure it out... about half the time, lol. So far they've used it about 6 or 7 times, and they still don't seem to understand how it works. The pictures I added are from their 5th time with the toy, they've seen it enough to know what it is but they don't seem to get it. And yes, in one of the pics that is my pig biting the /side/ of it lmao. Not the sharpest knife in the drawer...
The first time I used it, I tried putting their Oxbow vitamin C tablets as the treats (bad choice, don't do that) and the tablets had to be positioned just so to fit. Roxie and Cosette (my 1 year old alpha) made a team effort and got the treats uncovered, but the treats were wedged in there to the point they couldn't get them out! I felt bad, but they were so determined to get the treat they shoved their noses into the hole and kept biting at me when I tried to free the treats for them. It was pretty funny, and I've since tried using small bits of lettuce and these 'O' shaped treats that are the size of my thumbnail, the latter of which works very well. Vegetables like green bell peppers, cucumber, or carrot, would probably work the best. All of them hold their shape well and are great for guinea pigs (cucumber in moderation).
Every time I put the treat board in their cage they run up to the side of the cage and continue gnawing on the bars, probably hoping I won't make them solve a logic puzle for their food haha. Roxie usually starts chutting at me (the annoyed clicking sound guinea pigs make) but gets the treat anyway, and Cosette typically just steals Roxie's treat insread of getting her own. No matter how much I supervise them she always steals the treat instead of earning it, even when I try to stop her. If you have a young/dumb dominant pig like I do, consider presenting the toy to each pig on their own, or provide more treats than you have guinea pigs so they can't hoard them.
i guess what I'm trying to say is the toy didn't exactly work out for my pigs, but it's a quality logic toy and I'll continue to "torture" my pets by enriching their minds with a logic puzzle lol. There was another reviewer with guinea pigs that said their pigs solved all 3 levels quickly, so don't be discouraged by my review! My pigs aren't great at problem solving, but using very small treats they go nuts for helps keep them motivated. Be prepared to watch your pet(s) bite the toy and dig under it for a bit, but if they're getting too frustrated you can adjust the lid until they understand the food is in the toy, not around it. Rabbits and rats may find it easier to solve, but I can't say for sure. No matter what pet you have it's loads of fun watching them try to solve it!.. Rae
