Pets add so much love and enjoyment to our lives. Products that help our time with them easier and more enjoyable-score:)
PawPlunger
Paw Cleaners
Starting at $29.95
Wouldn’t it be swell if our dogs would wipe their paws on the mat before they raced into the house? Talk about a dream come true. But we live in the real world, where the next best thing is the ingenious PawPlunger. It looks like an oversize coffee mug and it works like a miniature car wash for your dog’s paws. Simply fill the PawPlunger with warm water, place a paw inside, then plunge gently. The paw-friendly bristles inside the device brush away the grime and irritants. Voila, clean paws. There are no muddy towels left by the door, no salt or chemicals from the roads to hurt your pup or get dragged onto your carpet. And that awkward wrestling match by the sink with your best friend? Eliminated. It even comes with a spill-proof lid so you can bring it along in the car.
The inspiration for the PawPlunger is LuLu, a Wheaton Terrier with a fondness for romps in Central Park. The creator is Brianne Leary (you might know her as the host of Animal Planet’s Petsburgh series). Brianne came up with the idea for the PawPlunger after countless struggles to keep LuLu’s paw prints out of her apartment. She teamed up with co-inventor Andrew Taylor to develop the idea, and the rest is history. Pawsitively genius.

PoochieBells
Dog Training Bells
Starting at $16.95
Sometimes we miss the cues when our four-legged friends need to relieve themselves. If that happens, we’re stuck with a mess to clean. To help avoid dog accidents in the home, Cheryl Pederson created PoochieBells, a potty-training system that teaches dogs to ring the bells when they need to be let out.
PoochieBells are straps that hang on a doorknob. When your dog wants to get your attention, the bells are right by the door, ready to be nudged with a nose or shaken with a paw. The premise of PoochieBells is based on the idea of conditioned reflexes, made famous by the renowned Russian physiologist Ivan Petrovich Pavlov. The goal is to teach your dog to associate the ringing bell sound with a signal to go out, and PoochieBells includes training instructions to help you and your pooch get in the habit.
Cheryl wanted to give her dog a tool to communicate, even when the house was noisy and full of activity. Her PoochieBells are simple and well made, with two sets of bells on each strap so both small and large dogs can use it. The pet-safe bells come from a manufacturer in East Hampton, Connecticut, that’s been in the bell business for more than 200 years. Cheryl also offers dog-friendly pewter hooks for mounting near the door, in case you’d rather not hang the bells on a high-traffic door.
PoochieBells are a great reminder of just how smart our pets can be. All they need is a tool to help them communicate with us.

Litter One
Self-Contained Natural Cat Litter
$24.95
Ask any cat lover the best thing about their feline friends and the answer isn’t likely to be changing the kitty litter box. That’s the beauty of Litter One—it’s an all-in-one cat litter solution that never requires changing. After four to six weeks of odorless enjoyment, simply throw the whole American Made kit and caboodle out with the recycling and start anew.
The 100% biodegradable box takes less than 20 seconds to assemble and uses pine pellet litter instead of clay. When your cat urinates, the pellets turn into sawdust and fall through a patented false floor into a catch tray. Each Litter One purchase also includes a scoop and 30 freshly scented bags for disposing of fecal waste.
With three cats of her own and a father in the lumber business, inventor Natalie Robbins couldn’t help but notice the resemblance between the look of traditional clay litter and pine pellets. But the shape was where the similarities ended. While clay litter can be harmful to your cat’s health and anything but odor free when mixed with urine, Litter One pine pellets are all natural and odor absorbing.
