The Best Holiday Pet Gifts of 2018

Your furry friends are like family, so why not treat them to a holiday gift this year? Whether you're looking for healthy dog treats, a chic pet carrier, or a new scratching post for your cat, we've got you covered. Here are our favorite pet gifts of 2018.

These all-natural treats look and smell just like bacon, and they’re grain-free, soy-free, corn-free, and sugar-free. Your dog will gobble them up quicker than you can say “wanna treat?”

If you travel often with your dog or cat, it’s time to upgrade your carrier to something more chic than a sherpa-lined carrier. Give your pet plenty of room to stretch out in this breathable tote. There’s even a leash clip, so Fido or Mittens can stay securely fastened.

Cat litter that lasts for a month sounds too good to be true, right? Well, this brand stays fresh for 30 days, is free of irritating dust, and uses color-changing technology to alert you to any health issues your kitty may be hiding. It can sense everything from UTIs to kidney problems to bladder stones, which (in our opinion) is pretty impressive for cat litter. One of our editors tried it, and found that the odor elimination was frankly astounding.

Hardcore chewers will LOVE this heavy-duty rubber ball with an attached rope. Play keep-away, tug, or fetch with this all-in-one dog toy. Bonus? It comes in three sizes, so you can find the perfect one for your pup.

These pet jammies are perfect for the person whose dog needs to be in their holiday card every year (no judgement.)

With no grains, fillers, corn, sugar, salt, soy, or animal byproducts, your dog will have good reason to beg for these treats.

Turn Mittens into "DJ Mittens" with this ultra-adorable cat scratching turntable. He’ll be able to sharpen his claws, stretch his muscles, and spin some sick beats (plus, he might just take a break from scratching your couch cushions.)

Carry Fido in style with this preppy pet tote bag. It comes in navy or red, and you can customize it with your pet’s moniker or a cute phrase.

Do you miss your pet when you’re gone? (Um, duh!) With this gadget, a smartphone, and Wi-Fi access, you can now video chat your fur baby in real time, and shoot treats their way. Two-way audio means you can tell them that you miss them, and hear their response in return. This is a must-have for anxious or bored pets, or for people who travel a lot.

This necklace is the ultimate gift for the crazy dog or cat mom in your life. An artist mails you an easy-to-use molding kit where you take an imprint your pet’s snout or paw (don’t worry, it’s non-toxic!) Then, in a few weeks, she sends you back your one-of-a-kind silver necklace with your pet’s name engraved on the back, so you can wear your pet close to your heart.

You may think these little dumplings are too cute to eat, but we're betting your pup will disagree! We also love the plush bucket of fried chicken, which is just as adorable as it sounds.

Love exercising your cats, but hate having to chase after them with a tiny laser? This battery-powered one does all the work for you, and stands on its own. It’s sturdy enough so your mischievous cat can’t tip it over, and has a manual function with different light patterns in case you want to get in on kitty playtime.

Fido deserves part of the present-opening action, too! Stuff it with their favorite treats for a sweet holiday surprise (we stuffed ours with Newman's Own Peanut Butter Treats).

Farmer’s Dog is a subscription-based dog food that’s customized to your pet’s needs (have an anxious dog that’s allergic to turkey? They’ve got you covered.) It’s delivered to your house every month, and is made with real, natural ingredients to keep your pup healthy and happy.

These cheesy puffs are made with caseinate, a protein commonly used in health supplements, protein bars and snacks. These puffs come in three tasty flavors for dogs and three tasty, sugar-free flavors for cats! Best part? There are no weird ingredients, artificial flavors, preservatives, or artificial coloring. So you can feel good about letting your furry pal go to town.

Is this hot toddy toy adorable? Absolutely. But your pup will love it for the spiky ball inside, and the crinkly noises it makes when it moves.

Made by the same team as the one behind Casper mattresses, this bed is perfect for lazy canines. It's got nearly 1,400 5-star reviews—probably because the bed is dig-proof, shred-proof, and bolstered with super-comfy foam. Oh, and Casper has a generous 100-day return policy in case your pup doesn't absolutely love their new bed.
