Whether you found for a new furry friend during quarantine to keep you company while working from home or you’ve rescued more animals than you can count, every pet owner dreams of giving their companion the perfect holiday gift. After all, they are part of the family. Not to mention the fact that they’re happy to dole out sloppy kisses or couch snuggles whenever you’re having a rough day.
The problem is you can’t exactly ask them for a holiday wish list. You can only take your best guess—and the advice of the pet-loving folks at WH—to figure out what to gift them. (At least they’ll probably be easier to please than your mother-in-law or the teenage girl in your life!)
Thankfully, your pet has probably given you some solid clues over your years together. If your dog is a fetch master, chances are they could use a new bag of tennis balls. If your cat loves people watching, grab a cat bed that attaches to the window. And if your pet is a big snacker just like you, they’ll love these “Oreo” cookies for dogs. (Although, let’s be real, most pets would also be more than thrilled just ripping up wrapping paper all day.)
The holiday season will be here before you know it, and whether your BFF has a cold nose, fluffy ears, whiskers, or teeny paws, they’ll be so excited to receive any of these gifts.
