Hasta La Gadget!

When you happen to have a dog, it is imperative that one be a responsible pet owner and give that dog what it deserves – a number of square meals each day depending on its age, breed and activity level, daily walks and exercise, some play time, as well as the customary visit to the vet for all of its shots, not to mention getting a bath from time to time to make sure that it remains nice and clean. Ah yes, keeping it free from fleas and ticks, too, is something that some folks overlook. Combing your dog’s coat each day will not only ensure it does not end up in a tangled mess, especially for those long haired breeds, it also helps you bond with your pooch and weed out nasty ticks and fleas (with the right comb, of course). Why not go the extra mile and get the $39.95 Flea Killing Pet Comb instead?

This is a cordless device that will emit a low voltage whenever it is combed through a pet’s coat, helping kill fleas on contact. I do wonder whether we will hear those nasty zapping sounds whenever an electrified fly swatter is used to zap mosquitoes and the like, but chances are the voltage is too small to emit such a loud sound. The Flea Killing Pet Comb has been certified to be used safely on cats and dogs regardless of their age and size. I like the fact that this can zap fleas without having to rely on chemicals that could result in an allergic reaction. All fleas will be trapped on the comb for easy disposal afterwards when you clean it, and do keep a pair of AA batteries around handy as a backup.

If you’re a dog lover, you know that there’s nothing that you want more, than your best friends happiness. Sure you rub their bellies, give them treats, take them for long walks in the moonlight, but let’s face it… it’s highly likely that your sidekick is lacking in a certain kind of companionship, you know, the doggie kind. Is it fair to deny your pooch a soulmate? I understand that the chance for love to blossom with another canine may not have crossed your mind, but I’ll bet Fido has tossed the idea around a fair bit. Doesn’t he deserve someone to love too?

Well, the folks over at Tagg think so…  Tagg is a pet tracking system that allows you to track your pet’s location, and activity from your computer or mobile device, utilizing a lightweight pet tracker that attaches to your dog’s collar, and it can be worn at all times, even while bathing or swimming. It quickly and easily turns your dog’s existing collar, into a useful GPS tool for finding your best friend! The humans behind this useful dog-finding gadget, want to help you find something else… a fabulous date for your pooch!

Utilizing the same idea as human dating sites, you simply need to enter in your pets age, geographical location, and their likes and dislikes… think: Rambo loves long walks in the woods, chewing on fine furniture, and lifting his leg everywhere, or Fifi dislikes taking a bath, veterinary visits, pooping on the couch, and poodles of all kinds… and your eligible fur-buddy could be instantly matched with a canine companion somewhere near you… oh come on, doesn’t love deserve a chance? To sign up your furry friend, visit doglovedog.com, trust me, you’ll be glad you did. Sigh…  the joys of puppy love.

Having a pet would mean being responsible for its health and overall well being, and this includes feeding it the recommended amount of food daily. However, there are times when we actually need to be away from the home longer than usual due to an impending deadline at the office, what are you to do to make sure that your pooch or kitty does not get hungry? Self-feeding machines that work using a timer might be a good idea, but the $79.95 Microchip Activated Pet Feeder could be more practical.

Basically, the Microchip Activated Pet Feeder happens to be a lidded pet bowl which will automatically open only when the intended pet approaches, which means that other dogs or cats in the house will not be able to obtain the food there. The included microchip tag would be attached to the pet’s collar, where it will transmit an infrared signal which opens the lid of the bowl whenever the pet comes within a 2′ distance. As the pet walks away, the lid will close. The microchip within happens to be a water-resistant, locket-sized plastic case which will not interfere with the pet’s normal movements. This might not be a good idea with breeds like the Labrador Retriever as it figures out quickly that being near the bowl would equal to food, and knowing its appetite, your food might not last it through a single meal time.

They say that a dog is a man’s best friend, although I am quite sure that some of us do not mind having some diamonds as our best friend as well (the ladies would know very well what I am talking about here). Still, you might want to give your four legged companion somewhere comfortable where it feels safe to sleep in at night in your room, ensuring that it also does not simply wander elsewhere to fool you into thinking that things which go bump in the night exist. The answer? The $499.95 Nightstand Dog House.

The Nightstand Dog House does what its name suggests – it happens to be a nightstand that has integrated sleeping quarters meant for your pooch. This does away with the need for a standalone pet bed, as the Nightstand Dog House will look as though it is part of the bedroom décor, while a door allows your pooch to access to their own sleeping space. You can choose to leave the slatted door panel there as a barrier, or remove it for freedom of movement. The nightstand itself comes with narrow openings on both sides so that there is adequate ventilation, whie it comes finished with a non-toxic stain that is safe for pets.

Cats are creatures that can prove to be rather difficult to interpret – they too, have their mood swings from time to time, and it can be quite a challenge to decipher just how to make them happy at that point in time. However, there is one particular toy that cats would find it difficult to resist – that is, to chase after a dot of light. This hunter instinct within them needs to be developed and expressed from time to time, so what better way to do so than to take the humorous route with the $11.99 Pirate Cat Laser Toy?

The Pirate Cat Laser Toy will be able to mesmerize and captivate your furkid, and who knows, you as the owner as well! All you need to do is to press the button on top of the Pirate Cat’s head and his one good eye will spring to life, sending out a red laser which would allow you to zip through just about any room according to your whim and fancy. There is no doubt that your cat will be more than pleased, or even excited right down to its very bones as it chases after that laser dot. Watch in amazement and glee as you turn off the Pirate Cat Laser Toy and see your cat stop with that puzzled look on its face. Good thing it already comes with batteries, making it ready to work right out of the box.
