Promising review: "I got tired of re-painting the corners of the door frames and painted walls because the cat would rub her face and neck all over them. Fill the sides with catnip, and she can’t resist rubbing all over this rubber comb. I mounted one on her cat tree with the screws provided. Easy installation, and you can remove it from the mounting bracket easily for cleaning out dead hair and washing. Great product!" —KB

P.S. Don't forget to add some catnip to your cart so you can make your cat an offer they can't refuse!

The Cat Ladies is a family-owned, southern California-based small business founded in 2015 by a mother-daughter duo who wanted to create unique, organic, nontoxic products for other passionate cat owners.

Promising review: "As far as the flavor goes; the kitties seem to find it top notch! Was tall enough after only five days; but we held off for day six to make sure 'little destroyer' didn't pull it out by the roots! The cup opening keeps the shoots tight together unlike some you buy in the pet store. We couldn't be more pleased. We ordered a refill at the same time and plan to order again just to have two cups so my kids don't fight for position. No mold problems if you follow watering directions." —Kathleen M.

Promising review: "My cats absolutely love this thing! When I was putting it together, my 20-pound tabby immediately went inside the tube and didn't come out for over an hour. It was easy to put together, even with a 20-pound cat inside (lol). But this entire thing is about 3 feet long. It is HUGE. Make sure you have room!! The material is surprisingly soft, both outside and inside the tunnel. And the light coloring allows light to filter through, which my cats like (I had a black tunnel that neither of them would go into). My smaller 10-pound tabby (with a black nose) loves to run around the house, and now he has added running a few laps inside this tunnel to his routine. Both cats play in this ALL THE TIME. Both on the inside chasing each other, or one on the inside and one outside batting at each other. They use the tunnel as a good napping spot and also as a hiding place from the vacuum or guests they aren't sure of. This has gotten soooooo much use from both cats. I would highly recommend this!!" —Trebeca

Promising reviews: "I bought this for my coworker’s cat, Mr. Socks, who is always trying to ‘help’ his owner during the day. This was perfect. The stickers are so much fun and so cute. The ‘laptop’ itself is hilarious and entertaining for not just Mr. Socks. The ‘screen’ has all of Mr. Socks’ coworkers in a video conference. The ‘mouse’ was hilarious, and the little slot for small toys is a great addition. I highly recommend this for any of YOUR furry coworkers. They won’t be disappointed." —Michelle

"My cat LOVES this thing! She's a scratcher of ALL things, and it drives me crazy, so I was hoping this would snag her attention, and it did! This is right up her alley. She plays with every single part of it and goes absolutely bananas on it. And for some reason, this 'Meow Pro' will periodically trigger her zoomies, and she really loses her mind." —Luci

Promising reviews: "This bowl is very nice. One of my cats has difficulty eating from a flat bowl on the floor, and this elevated and tilted bowl is just the right solution. It is easy to wash and so far seems durable. And I love that it is plain white with NO design inside. The bowl is big enough to hold plenty of food, and the price was very reasonable." —Annie L.

Promising review: "Our kitten, Spazz, LOVES the Purr Pillow!!! He loves to tackle and body slam the purple guy, as we call it, and grab it, bite it, and kick it with his hind legs! If there were ever a soft plush kitten/cat toy that can take extreme punishment, the Purr Pillow is it!!! He loves it so much that when we give it to him, he'll run off with it in his mouth and put it in his special mini cardboard box. The Purr Pillow is more than worth its cost!!!" —Denice C.

Promising review: "My cat LOOOOVESSS this genius product (: She’s an odd one and doesn’t play much, catnip or not, but she does snooze around pretty much all the time, so this is perfect! She won’t give it up! Shipped extremely fast, with super-soft fabric and great quality! I definitely recommend!" —BreAhnna Stephens

Promising review: "I have two very active cats, and they both love chasing the red dot. But the standard ones require me to push the tiny button, and sometimes I am utterly swamped with work. So I ordered this for them, and they are HUGE FANS. They hear it whirr on, and they are all set to play for fifteen minutes. They know exactly where the red dot comes from, but they don't care! Fun to watch them play, and it keeps them out of my hair for a while!" —Dawn Vogel

BuzzFeed Shopping writer Courtney Lynch says, "Listen up, people. If your cat loves to take their scratching habit out on your furniture, you absolutely *need* one of these in your home. They're especially great for kitties who automatically take up residence in any cardboard box you bring into the house 😆 (iykyk). These last a really long time, so you only need to buy 'em every few months — maybe more often in a multi-cat household. It comes with a box, three scratching pad refills, and three small bags of catnip. The scratching pads are reversible, allowing you to flip them over once the first side is worn out and get more use out of them. I keep one of these in the living room and one in my bedroom, and my cat now has no interest in scratching anything else. Additionally, she loves these so much that she often ends up taking a little snooze inside the box.

Promising review: "I have a cat that only likes a few things, and she obsesses over those things. Cardboard scratchers are one of her favorite things. I love that this comes with three inserts that can be flipped over. Basically, it's six scratchers. This will last her several months and we will be back for more when she goes through them all. Also, the price for this item was so much better than many others I see out there." —Samantha

Promising review: "We run a rescue and have many cats. This toy was a hit. The year-olds immediately went to work while the older cats came up and watched intently. It wasn't too hard nor too easy, and kept their interest without frustrating them. I purchased another for my daughter's cats. Both were enthralled and kept very busy. This puzzle is a win!" —texasquilter

Promising review: "One of three of my cats loves these. I cat-sit a family of four cats, and each cat loves these and fights over them. The one cat who I love is a fluffy, beautiful Maine coon, and my mom one day fed her 'chewy' as we call them, in her small, tiny crystal jewelry dish. My beautiful little girl will not eat her chewy unless it is served in the small crystal dish. I suppose you could say this food makes cats feel like royalty! Her coat and fur are beautiful, too!" —Kathy M.

This is made of sisal wood, which is stronger and sturdier than cardboard (the common material for scratching posts). 

Promising reviews: "The average cat scratching post is a hideous blend of string and beige carpet that sucks the soul from any room in which it is placed. Not this one. This scratching post is sleek, well-made, and unassuming, blending easily into any room. It arrived well packaged and was easy to install with the hardware provided. Furthermore, it is robustly constructed and stands up to constant use by my cat." —D James

"My cat absolutely loves this, so we ended up buying a second one for him. It's great for mounting on the wall. It gives him a good spot where he can really stretch and scratch without damaging our walls. If your cat tends to scratch vertical surfaces like walls, like ours does, I highly recommend this scratcher." —Luke

Simply B Vermont is a small business located in, you guessed it, Vermont. They make adorable pet accessories and toys for cats and dogs.

Promising review: "Fast shipping, super thoughtful and attentive seller, and most importantly, our kitties are obsessed with these balls! Even my shy one is running around with these and having an absolute blast without my tossing them around. It’s also wearing her out, which is quite hard to do. Highly recommend!" —Ketti Schulenberg

BuzzFeed Shopping editor Jenae Sitzes swears by it: "This is THE cat bed, y'all. Neither of my cats has ever really taken to a cat bed and much preferred to doze on their cat tree or curl up on a regular blanket — until I finally caved in and bought the Aspen self-warming bed a while back. IMMEDIATELY upon placing it on my couch, one of my cats crawled into it and happily began napping. As soon as he moved away, my other cat jumped in to take it for a test run as well — and immediately curled up as well. After about a week of them taking turns using it (literally, the cat, not in the bed, would lie next to it, waiting for the other to leave — my polite boys 🥹), I realized I needed to buy a second one. They immediately took to that one as well, and now, they both have access to their favorite bed whenever they like!

Whenever I put my hand underneath them, I can definitely feel how warm they are underneath, so the bed's self-warming feature seems to work well. I think what they love most about it is the shape and how unbelievably cushy it is. The sides of the bed are supportive enough for them to rest their heads on, yet still flexible enough for them to stretch out however they like. While the listing recommends this bed for cats under 10 pounds, larger cats will be just fine, as Sneaky is quite large (his affectionate nickname is "Chonky"), and he adores this bed. Most of all, I love knowing they won't be cold at night, especially when I'm away from home. Knowing I'll never have to waste money on another cat bed that sits unused is just the cherry on top. Highly recommend!!"

Promising review: "My cats LOVE these beds and some of them won’t usually sleep in a pet bed. I purchased three so far. Will be getting more lol. These are good quality, and they’re warm for colder months!" —Gerald

Promising review: "Perfect distraction for bored kitties. My cats will play with this toy for hours. Requires recharging often if not turned off when not in use. Very durable and safe for bigger cats that bite and play rough. Excellent product." —Terri

Meowy Janes is a New Jersey-based small business that specializes in catnip alternatives. They work with sustainable, family-owned farms to source their natural products.

BuzzFeed Shopping editor Chelsea Stuart gave these to her kitties: "I recently tried some of these out with my cats, and they were a hit! TBH, they've never really been super into catnip — they'll play with it, but they don't go wild — so I was excited to see they were into these. They bat them around, rub their faces all over them, and ultimately, when they're done, hide them under a chair or in their cat condo so they can come back to them later."

Promising review: "I have two cats, one almost blind kitty, and one very lovey-dovey, very vocal kitty. The kitty has not warmed up to these yet, but she usually needs extra time with new things. But my talkative kitty just loves them! I scraped off some bark as instructed, and she gnawed, tossed, chased, and altogether enjoyed them." —Grace Cook

Get them from Meowy Janes on Etsy for $14.56 or Amazon for $11.33.

Promising review: "This is the greatest invention for kitties EVER! Honestly, when my cats feel like they need a hit o' the nip, and mama's not around, they know exactly where to go. They love it, and I catch them rubbing up on it almost everyday. We've had it up on the wall for about two months now, with three cats loving all over it, and I can't tell if it's lost any of its bulk. Seems like it's going to have a long life of mellowing out my kitties!" —Tiffany Lee

Promising review: "I have bought so many products over the years to remove hair from my cat. THIS product really works great!!! Spray a little water as they advise on the little nubs, and massage your cat. Keep rubbing until the gloves are full, then peel the hair off them. My cat loves them, and they remove more loose hair than any other product. A must-have!" —Debbie Strahm

Promising review: "I have a whole room filled with cat toys that my cat is not interested in. It's funny how the least expensive cat toy I have makes him the happiest. He plays with this until he's panting like a dog and I have never seen him jump so high. I'm certain this toy will help him lose his belly. He loves it! I highly recommend it!" —Kwoo

BuzzFeed Shopping editor Jenae Sitzes had this to say: "I have this exact toy for my cats, and it's easily their favorite thing to play with — and they have a lot of toys. I first noticed they loved string because they tore apart a mouse toy that was basically string wrapped around a plastic mouse shape — they didn't care about the mouse, but they loved the torn-apart string (aka literal trash at this point). I got this rainbow toy because I realized they really just wanted to chase long tail-like objects, and they sure do light up whenever they see me pick up this wand and know that it's playtime. I love that it's long, so I can just sit on my couch and whisk it around the area, and even shy little Chicho, who likes to sit further back and watch while his older brother plays (as seen in the GIF above), can still bat at it. It's a super simple toy, but the amount of joy it'll probably bring your kitty is worth every penny."

Promising review: "We bought one of these about five years ago, and it was a hit. It has been well used and is finally starting to fray a bit. We have a new kitten, and she absolutely loves this toy. As others have said, she will drag this thing around and bring it to us to get us to play with her. I just ordered another one." —Jayster

Promising reviews: "We adopted a cat three weeks ago. The shelter told us he wasn’t much of a water drinker and recommended a water fountain. He took right to it. The app is really great. It tracks how often and how much water he’s drinking. And it will remind you to clean it and to change the filter. The filters do need to be changed every two weeks, so be sure to buy a replacement pack." —Andrea

"Absolutely amazing fountain! My boys Jack and George absolutely love it (and I love that they’re drinking more water). It’s a modern design that complements the room (I have it in my living room). It’s extremely quiet compared to other fountains I’ve had in the past. The corresponding app notifies me when a refill of the reservoir is needed and when a cleaning is due. It’s easy to clean, and the manual has a QR code to scan that shows you how to deep clean the pump. I couldn’t be more pleased with this purchase." —Cheri

Promising review: "These mini blankets are such a great bargain! My cat loves them. I pile three together and place them in different parts of the house. She loves to knead them and lie on them. I even have unwrapped extras to replace these if necessary. Great bang for your buck!" —Kathleen Shannon

Promising reviews: "My cat lay down inside this bed as soon as I took it out of the package. She sleeps on top and inside. She’s very old and sick, so she likes the warmth." —Liz

"I got this for our cat for Christmas, and he absolutely loves it. Everyone knows kitties like to go inside -- boxes, under blankets -- this is no exception. He pokes his head in, turns around, and settles down for his 12-hour nap! :) He even likes to use it as a bed and sleeps on top at times. Washable and easy to care for. A definite yes if you ask him!" —Sandy

Promising review: "Our cats love this and it's the perfect way to give them food overnight without them eating all of it within the first 30 minutes and vomiting on the kitchen floor! They really like the challenge, and the size makes it really easy to regulate the amount of food we are giving them. We got two of them so they could both play/eat and that really solved our problems." —Charity Crabtree

Promising review: "I bought these treats hoping to improve one of my cats' breath, and the day we got them, all of our cats devoured them (I gave them about six treats each). In fact, after I put them away, our Maine coon got on the kitchen counter and was trying to knock the treat container down to open it up. He definitely wanted more." —Sheila B.

Promising reviews: "It was easy to put together, and no installation is required; it simply fits onto the window track and rests on the wall below. No holes made in your walls is a big plus! It is very sturdy but easily relocated if needed. I have two cats, and both fit quite comfortably together. The material is of great quality, and the bed portion is thick, super soft, and cushy. This has become their favorite place to nap or watch birds." —Jeff Drew

"I bought one to make sure it fit in my windows. It was SO easy to install, and feels very sturdy. You can use them with the window open or closed. My cats absolutely LOVE these. It is also noteworthy that all of my cats are fairly large, being about 12–13 pounds, and there is no issue with holding their weight or them being cramped. These are very spacious. I loved them so much that I bought two more. Highly recommend!" —J Dunbar
