Ethos Holiday Pet Gift Guide 2020
December 9, 2020
It’s that time of year again! Though this year may have looked a lot different than others, there is something that we can still get excited about as the holidays draw near…pet gifts! If you are still racking your brain about what to get your pets this year, don’t fret, we’ve compiled a list of this year’s ten best gifts to get your furry family members! From technology that you won’t believe, to good old fashioned clothing options, there is something for everyone (and every pet!) available on this list!
1) Smart Bone Toy
We all love playing with our pets, but that doesn’t mean that we all don’t get too busy at times to do it! The WickedBone Smart Bone is the answer to this problem! This high tech bone gives you the option to control it through your phone, or turn on auto-play mode so your pets are entertained all day long! This toy rolls away from your pet on its own, so your dog can play fetch, without you having to be in charge of throwing the toy!
Where to Buy: Amazon
2) Furbo Dog Camera
There are many dog cameras on the market available for us to watch our pets in real time when we’re away, but the Furbo Dog Camera takes it a step further by letting you throw treats to your dog while you’re not there! As sad as it is when you are not able to be home with your pet, this camera will allow you to watch them when you want to, and allow you to interact with them, even when you can’t be there!
Where to Buy: Amazon
3) Anxiety Relieving Toy
With many more people working from home, the day might come where you have to leave your pet home again while you go to work (if you aren’t back already!). This may cause your pet some stress and separation anxiety, so it is always a good idea, holiday or not, to invest in an anxiety relieving toy to help with your pet’s stress. The toy that we are highlighting is the BUSY BUDDY Calming Treat Dispenser. You can fill them with whatever treat you see fit, which will keep your dog occupied as they try to get it out! This toy also has a relaxing chamomile scent which will also help to relieve any stress they have!
Where to Buy: Chewy
4) Plaid Vest
If your pet loves showing off their fashion, this is a great holiday option! This plaid vest can be worn by dog or cat, and is perfect for the holidays! They can wear it to keep them warm (for those of us who live in colder areas), or just for a little bit of winter style! Practical, and fashionable!
Where to Buy: Chewy
5) Deep Dish Cuddler
Here’s a gift for the smaller pets in our lives! For a dog, cat, or any tiny pet, this “Deep Dish Cuddler” bed lets your pet sink in and get comfortable. It comes in a variety of different colors, so you can choose the perfect one for your pet and it’s small enough to put right next to you (or on your lap!), so that your pet can be comfortable while also getting to spend some quality time with you!
Where to Buy: Amazon
6) Dog Booties
These booties protect your dog’s paws in all kinds of weather! Put them on your pet’s paws in the winter to prevent them from slipping on ice or snow, but also use them to protect them from hot pavement in the summer! These booties also wrap around your pet’s paws instead of slipping on, which means that they won’t fall off. They are practical for your pet’s paw safety all year round, but also just look down right adorable on their feet!
Where to Buy: Chewy
7) Ice Cream for Dogs
Want an easy project for yourself as well as a fun treat for your pet? This is it! This ice cream is specifically made to be safe for your dog’s digestion, with a fraction of the fat and calories of regular ice cream. This mix is powder, and all you have to do is add hot water, freeze, and give to your dog! You can also put it back in the freezer to save for another day (if your dog doesn’t devour it in one sitting!). Keep your pet, and your pet’s stomach, happy and healthy with this treat for the holidays!
Where to Buy: Amazon
8) Moving Cat Toy
Like the high tech dog toy earlier on this list, this cat toy will keep your cat occupied with a moving toy, without you having to join in if you are busy! This moving mouse toy spins around along around a mat, which keeps your cat in one spot, but keeps them occupied for a long period of time until you can start playing with them yourself! There are also options for different attachments so your cat isn’t always going after one specific toy!
Where to Buy: Chewy
9) Holiday Tree Pet Bed
If you’re looking for something with a holiday theme, this is the perfect gift for your small dog or cat! Like the pet bed mentioned earlier, this will keep your pet comfortable, but will fit right in with your holiday decor! It is enclosed all around, which will also give your pet their own small space, while keeping festive during the holiday months.
Where to Buy: PetSmart
10) Pet Portrait
There are so many different options out there for getting your pet’s portrait done! Whether it be digital, painted, printed, etc., you can find a large amount of options on Etsy (as well as other sites), where you can get your very own pet portrait! We are linking one specific Etsy profile, though there are loads out there for you to choose from! Order a pet portrait and find a perfect spot around the house for it. It is the perfect gift for your pet, or another pet owner in your life!
Where to Buy: Etsy
Of course there are a lot of amazing gift options out there for your pet for the holidays! Whether it be something from this list, or something you come up with yourself, be sure to consult your veterinarian before giving your pet any new treats, supplements, or toys that you’re unsure of. We hope that you and your pets have a very happy holiday season, and that your pets enjoy any and all gifts they receive!
