The tens of thousands of 5-star Amazon reviews are reason enough to add the ChomChom to your cart immediately — but let me add my own personal review to the stack. I've been using the ChomChom for quite a while now, but I took the photos above literally just now to show just how quick, easy, and effective this roller is. It took 10 seconds to rid my velvet couch ottoman (yes, velvet...a terrible cat owner choice, I know) of the hair my two gray kitties are constantly leaving everywhere. It takes a bit of practice to get the hang of using this roller — at first, I thought you only brushed down in one direction, and was confused why it wasn't picking up hair. It's important to do a push-and-pull brushing in *both* directions so it actually pulls the hair inside, which does require you to apply a bit of pressure. Afterward, you'll just dump out the hair that's been trapped inside. The ChomChom is best for large flat surfaces like couches and beds.

Price: $24.99 (originally $31.95)

Promising review: "Absolutely the best product. It saved my itchy goldendoodle! We tried changing food, Benadryl, medicated shampoo, fish oil, everything you can imagine... nothing worked long-term. He was itching his face so badly he would make himself bleed. Had sores and scabs all over his face and neck. I bought these because they had good reviews and I was desperate. It changed his life! He no longer scratches AT ALL! His coat looks great and all of his sores are healed. He’s the happiest he’s been which makes me a very happy momma. He is also very picky and never eats treats... he eats these every time so that’s an added bonus!" —Darcie Nation

Price: $20.97 (originally $29.97; available in several quantities and for specific ages).

Be quick — this is a lightning deal!

Promising review: "I got tests for both dogs because I was curious about their breeds. It was fun to learn that our new hound mix pup is about 1/4 husky, and I would never have guessed that our older black dog was 35% beagle. Knowing our pup’s heritage helped us estimate his adult size and weight. The health information was a bonus. The results came back quicker than expected, within a couple of weeks." —C. Winser

Price: $126.99 (originally $199)

Promising review: "So far it is amazing! It picks up SO much dirt and hair. We have three dogs and a cat and my floors are spotless. We decided to get this cheaper one to see if it was something that would work for us and I am amazed! For the first week, we let it run everyday. We made sure we picked everything up and it only got stuck one time and that was because it went behind our couch that had been moved out accident. During week two, I did the maintenance on it and it was super simple. We use it every other day and have it schedule to run just before we get home. This thing even picks up cat litter! If you are on the fence, try it. Has made my life so much easier not having to sweep everyday!" —Kathryn P.

Price: $164.99 (originally $299.99)

Promising review: "This vacuum is AMAZING! I have two dogs and two cats, meaning I have a lot of hair, dander, sand and dirt in my home. This vacuum gets ALL the hair off everything. Has attachments to reach hair in hard to reach areas! The suction power is so strong, gets every grain of sand." —Ally C.

Price: $134.99 (originally $209.99)

I've been using this trapper mat for over a year now, and while it's pretty much impossible to eliminate all litter from your home if you own even one cat, let alone multiple, this mat has made keeping the floor of my litter box room MUCH more manageable. Unlike other mats, where the litter just kind of sits on top and eventually gets kicked elsewhere, this mat is designed so that the litter falls through the holes and stays inside the mat until you're ready to dump it. It's made out of an EVA material that's supposed to be gentle enough for cat paws, and my two kitties don't seem to have a problem walking on it. I *highly* recommend getting the larger 30-by-24-inch mat to extend the coverage area — I initially got the smaller one but went back for the larger size and it's perfect. Note that the mat will probably have a fold down the middle when it first arrives, but just give it some time and weigh it down with something if needed; it'll lay flat.

Price: $11.99+ (originally $19.99+; available in two sizes and three colors)

Promising review: "If you're curious if these reviews are true...THEY ARE! Stop shopping for something to get rid of those million fleas that won't even work and get this!!! We have an 80-pound American Bulldog, a 30-pound Belgian Malinois puppy, and 4 cats (5.9-10.6 pounds) that had randomly gotten infested with fleas within a week of moving into our new apartment. We got this delivered today and gave all of our pets the proper dosage (just one pill!). I went into the kitchen to clean some dishes, and had maybe cleaned two cups before I heard my partner laughing and asking me 'Have you ever just watched fleas die?! They're literally crawling to the surface and are dying!!!' My partner grabbed the flea comb to start combing away dead fleas, and the attached picture [above] is the result of just 2-3 swipes within 5 minutes of medicating them. Just a couple hours later, and our pets are no longer sitting there itching, licking, and biting at the fleas. If we have this issue again, we know what brand works!" —Riley Camp

Price: $29.86+ (originally $40.99; available for two weight ranges)

Promising review: "So, I live in South Florida where it is hot all year long and the fleas reign. I have two dogs less than 10 pounds and a hoard of cats who do like to sneak outside. We’ve been battling fleas for many years, and we were definitely losing the battle. These collars are so expensive that they were my last resort especially since flea collars don’t ever seem to work at all! But my babies were miserable, they were even losing their hair from those fleas, and itching to death. Today you can not find even a single bug on my pups, and their hair is actually growing back! They’re so relieved, and I don’t feel like the world’s worst per owner. *UPDATE* It’s been three months now, and the dogs are still doing great. Their coats have fully grown back out, and they don’t look like they have mange now. So glad I found this product!" —Morbid N’ Macabre with Crystal Bearr

Price: $45.21 (originally $81.58; available for small dogs, large dogs, and cats).

Psst — see even more flea and tick prevention deals as part of Prime Day!

You'll receive a small, low-noise vacuum and five tools: a grooming brush, deshedding brush, trimmer, cleaning brush, and nozzle head.

Promising review: "Best money ever spent. I love this. I have a lab and we all know how much they shed. He doesn’t like when I vacuum the floor. He gets scared and runs off. He loves this product. He acts like it is soothing to him. Brushing him has always been a struggle and I am exhausted by the time I’m through. Not to mention I have hair everywhere that I have to clean up. I have used this every day since it arrived and I absolutely love it. My lab lays down and lets me brush him for as long as I want. He actually enjoys getting brushed with this. Also there is no hair to clean up. This has saved me so much time and energy. Should have purchased a long time ago." —Kristy Coltren

Price: $104.99 (originally $149.99)

It plugs into the wall, but it also accepts batteries in case of power outages. Also, you can record a 10-second clip of your voice saying something like, "Maggie! It's time to eat!" so they get a consistent verbal cue that they recognize.

Promising review: "We held off for years telling ourselves our cat would eventually accept his feeding time if we were consistent in ignoring him. Well, here we are. Wish we bought this sooner; best money I've ever spent. Plus, we can more easily leave our cat for a few days without worrying as much. The battery backup is a nice feature, and it's easy to program, and once you get it set up you basically don't need to do anything except monitor the amount of remaining food. My only slight complaint is that the bowl itself is a hollow plastic, so the food hitting the bowl was actually loud enough in the other room to wake us up. So we now just have it dispense onto the mat we have." —Jen E.

Price: $53.19 (originally $89.99; available in three colors, two sizes, and with Wi-Fi connectivity)

The grooves on this feeder also help add enrichment to the meal, so it can help with fussy eaters / kitties who need encouragement to eat more.

Psst — Get a look at it on TikTok!

Promising review: "I wish I had bought this five years ago! My older cat loves puzzle toys with her kibble but this is perfect to slow her down with her wet food. And because it takes them so long to eat, my kitten can also eat her (yummier) wet food nearby in peace. I don’t even need to soak the mats to clean them; food usually washes right off if you pick them up right away. I bought these only a week ago and they are used daily in this house." —E. Turner

Price: $13.56 (originally $16.95)

Since this pad was designed for both cats and dogs, it comes in a wide range of sizes — I have the extra small, and it should be the perfect size for most cats. I keep mine on top of my Go Pet Club cat tree, on a platform that's fairly flat and hard otherwise. This turns it into the comfiest dozing spot, and it's easily their favorite spot on the tree! When I have to take a cat to the vet, I love to throw this pad in their carrier — not only does it provide extra cushioning, but it also has the comforting smell of home they'll recognize even when I have to take them to the scary vet clinic. If you have a window hammock, this would also work great on top of that too! FYI, I've also run this pad through the wash with no issues.

Price: $11.84+ (originally $16.99+; available in three colors and six sizes).

Promising review: "An item has to be really great in order for me to leave a review. This blanket is excellent. Honestly. My dog has been having accidents. He is a miniature schnauzer — so fairly small — but when he urinates, he fully empties himself. I put this blanket on top of his bed and let him nestle into it. It’s very soft on both sides and he loves it. The first morning it was on his bed, he had an accident. My husband and I were prepared to do the full cleaning routine we had done so many mornings prior. This blanket was soaked to the touch, but not one drop of liquid seeped through to the other side. INCREDIBLE. Honestly, this is so worth the buy! I’m actually getting another one now, and will likely get a third so that I have one for the couch. This blanket also washed up very easily. Buy this if you need to protect a bed, chair, couch, rug, etc. It really works and it’s so soft and cozy. I highly recommend!" —Missy

Price: $15.19+ (originally $24.99+; available in four sizes and three colors)

It features realtime two-way audio, color night vision, and a 360-degree rotating 1080p camera.

Promising review: "Having cameras inside the house are nice for checking on the dogs. Having a feeder where you can watch your dogs eat is better. Having a camera that can swivel to check where your dogs went and feed them? Perfect. Setup was easy and I was up and running in no time. I have no regrets making this purchase and I’ve gotten my dogs used to the new camera and they definitely enjoy all the treats being dispensed. It’s also nice to be able to talk to the pups and stop them from doing stuff through the mic. Highly recommend for people who aren’t at home a lot and worry about their pets and just want to give them some loving while you’re busy." —Eugene

Price: $145 (originally $210)

These lickable cat treats are such a crowdpleaser — even my cat Chicho, who generally turns his nose up at crunchy treats, loves to get in on the action whenever I offer him one of these lil' tubes. It's so easy to tear open a pack, and I love being able to feed the treat to them directly like Go-Gurt. They also came in clutch a while back when my other cat Sneaky (who has a low-grade form of lymphoma) stopped eating and was throwing up from his stomach being so empty. The Churu lickable treats were the only thing I could coax him into eating — and while they're not a replacement for meals, they're high in moisture and were able to tide him over until his vet visit. And if you have to give your cats medications regularly, these can help disguise the flavor.

Price: $8.76+ (originally $19.99; available in three flavors)

It also comes with a charging cable and a catnip pouch!

Promising review: "Got this for my two-year-old Bernedoodle for Christmas (yes I buy my dogs Christmas presents 😂). Anyway, my dog is very particular about his toys and he LOVES this thing. Hasn’t put it down since I gave it to him. It flips and flops every time he touches it. He prances around the house with it flopping in his mouth all day long, he’s very proud of his catch." —Melissa Odsather

Price: $11.19 (originally $18.99; available in four fish types)

BuzzFeed Shopping contributor AnaMaria Glavan says, "The glove is super comfortable and using it couldn’t be more foolproof: just put it on and run your hands through your pet’s fur. That’s it! The silicone grooves pick up so much fur with ease. Like, my dog looks close to hairless. HOW is he shedding so much!?!? After a few runs, I found that I would have to remove fur from the glove before continuing (you can pick up the fur with your other hand or run the glove under some water — either works) but it’s no biggie. The silicone actually makes it really easy to keep this clean. We got Rockie when he was 5 and he’d been riddled with skin issues and allergies, so I was pretty nervous to use anything that could potentially aggravate his conditions. However! Not only does this *not* bother his skin, but he…loves this. A lot. He starts snoring after exactly two run-throughs on his back. Also, his coat looks SO shiny after each use! TL;DR: this is one of those inexpensive add-ons that any pet owner should have on hand."

Price: $6.99 (originally $9.99)

It can hold more than 40 pounds of weight, so multiple kitties can curl up on it. If you have small dogs, don't be surprised if you find them napping here too!

Promising review: "This is perfect for our situation. We needed something sturdy that could easily be placed, moved, replaced, and not lose its integrity or leave any marks/wear behind. I was worried when purchasing if the suction cups would hold, and if the material of the hammock would be easily cleaned of hair, etc. After receiving and placing the item, I saw how sturdy the general frame, hammock, and suction cups were. This was clearly designed my someone who has cats as well. The wire that attaches it to the window is sturdy and thick. It seems like it will stand the test of time against my cats teeth. I have 3 cats under a year old and one two year old cat. There is a lot of energy, and lots of chewing. Immediately I felt at ease that the structure will not be tampered with by their fangs. I am extremely picky when it comes to the safety of my cats, and what I leave them with unattended. I feel comfortable with this window seat, and I’m very happy with my purchase." —The Cat Mom

Price: $19.99 (originally $39.99; available in two colors).

You get a large 33-quart bin and a smaller, stackable 12-quart bin, so you could store dog and cat food separately, or just use the top bin to store other pet supplies. You could also use the bottom bin for storing a cat's litter bag and the top bin for food — the options here are endless! The wheels on the bottom bin make it easy to roll around, a helpful feature for those with limited mobility or less arm strength. A scoop is included!

Promising review: "This is AWESOME. I wish I found this years ago. The castors roll well, even on carpet. The smaller bin is a great addition. We keep it on top of the big bin and fill it up as needed. Less bending over to feed the herd of puppies. The scoop is sturdy and easy to handle without being flimsy or too heavy. It's been dropped by little hands repeatedly and no cracks or breaks. Honestly, I cannot find a negative on it. I really like it." —Amy T

Price: $26.72 (originally $36.99)

Promising review: "So I bought this to go pick up my new fur baby, and I’m so grateful I did! Driving home he was sleeping soundly in the seat, I had him buckled and all was great. All of a sudden I got rear-ended by a drunk driver who was doing over 100 mph while I was on cruise doing about 70. I spun out of control and hit the guard rail. I was unconscious for a few minutes, and when I finally came to and realized what was going on, I looked in the back and there he was, crying but safe!! My car was totaled but we both walked away🙏🏼 I’ve always had dogs and never had them buckled, never mind a car seat. I am beyond grateful that I decided to get this before I even had him because the cops said he wouldn’t have survived the accident if he wasn’t in his car seat. He’s a little older now and he loves being in his seat! I encourage any dog owner to invest in something like this if you have a dog who’s always in the car and no just let him free to roam in the back seat. It may seem inhumane but you wouldn’t let your child be in the car without being secure." —Bianca Palmigiano

Price: $45.59 (originally $91.99; available in two sizes and two colors).

Hurry — there's only a couple left!

Promising review: "My old, grumpy dog hates to be groomed. In the summer she sheds her undercoat and it hangs off her like dirty cotton clumps. Nonetheless, it was hers and it bothered her to see it taken away from her. For some reason, she didn't mind the brush and actually stood patiently while I brushed her. This was astounding. The bristles (metal with plastic tips) are relatively short so they don't scratch her shin. Cleaning the dead hair off it and directly into the wastebasket where she couldn't see her hair going away was easy and she didn't seem to feel she was being robbed of her valuable dead hair. In short, it's a great brush." —Philastein

Price: $20.29 (originally $28.99)

Carpet messes are undoubtedly the worst to clean up, but you can also use this on clothes and other surfaces like concrete and hardwood. Just be sure to follow the instructions carefully for non-carpet use.

Rocco & Roxie is a family-owned small business named after the Magleby family's pets Rocco, a Labradoodle, and Roxie, a former shelter tabby cat.

Promising review: "I have six elderly cats, and a few of them oftentimes leave smelly pee puddles to register their disdain at whatever cats get 'peed off' about. It's not a litter box problem and, although I've caught one or two of them doing it, I can't blame them all. This product works great on fresh messes as well as dried ones. After blotting up fresh pee pods, I saturate the area with Rocco & Roxie's odor remover and let it dry. For dried stinky stuff, I just saturate the area and let it dry. It has a pleasant odor and completely eliminates the ammonia odor. Believe me, I've tried all kinds of products, and this one works the best. I buy gallons now just to have on hand. It's better than smelling that awful pee!" —mona mia

Price: $14.98 (originally $19.97; also available in a gallon size)

Promising review: "We take our dogs to the beach every weekend. Our older dog has kidney disease so it's important for him to have access to fresh water at all times. He instantly loved his new dog water bowl, as did our other two dogs. With three dogs, we bring extra water to fill the base bottle. The unit was watertight, and we like how the unused water can drain back into the base with a press of the button. Will buy a second one for sure." —EveC

Price: $11.98+ (originally $14.98+, available in three colors and two sizes)

Promising review: "Tough treat for heavy chewers! Our AmStaff can finish a bully stick in minutes. We had to stop giving her bones because she’d gnaw them to shards! This is the first treat we’ve tried that lasted more than an hour. It’s been two days and she’s not even 1/4 of the way through! They do have a smell, but it’s not strong. It’s like a faint smoky smell. Our girl loves them! And I love that she’s no longer trying to eat my furniture!" —monster_mommy

Price: $6.51 (originally $11.48; available in four dog weight ranges)

The set includes four extra-large (18"x12") pieces, four large (18"x9") pieces, and two smaller pieces (18"x6") along with 60 twist pins if you want to secure them more (but the pieces have self-adhesive).

Promising review: "Our cat was destroying the corner of our brand-new sectional, so I was excited to try these out. I didn’t want to try sprays or anything with pins that puncture the couches. I was a little worried about the quality of the adhesive, but the screen has been holding up and my cat no longer scratches that corner. There are plenty of screens in the package to add more if she finds a new spot." —NKakanis

Price: $14.39 (originally $29.99)

I can absolutely vouch for the effectiveness of these. My cat Sneaky is a notorious cord chewer and particularly loves going to town on the charging cable for his automatic water fountain — you can check out the damage above. I was getting to the point where I was afraid it'd stop working entirely, so I ordered these protectors in the 1/2-inch size. They snap on and off *so* easily — flexible enough for removal, but thick and durable enough that your kitty's teeth are no match against the thick wire loom. Sneaky pretty quickly realized he'd finally been defeated once he discovered these on his favorite chewing spots (I also applied a protector to my poor MacBook charging wire, which was another target), and I haven't seen him even attempting to chew anymore.

I like that these come in multiple colors as well as different lengths and sizes so you can order as much as you actually need. You just snip off as much as you need for a particular area, so I used a shorter piece for my water fountain cable and a much longer one for my MacBook charging cable to protect the whole area. I ordered the 1/2-inch diameter ones, but you could definitely go down to the 1/4-inch or even 1/8-inch sizes if you're only planning to cover a single thin cable so it's not quite as bulky as mine looks above. If you're planning to cover multiple cables at once, you'd want to stick with the bigger sizes.

Price: $7.64+ (originally $9.99+; available in 15 sizes and three colors).

Promising review: "Like most reviewers here, I purchased after a bad experience with evacuating my two cats during a fire alarm. I needed something I could carry easily and get both of them in, bonus points if I could store it compactly. They are both 13–14 pounds and from nose to butt about 16 inches long. I took this bag for a test drive and yes they were pretty cramped but there’s really no way to make the bag larger and still be carried by a small person (as a small person it’s difficult not to tip over with it as is). Put this to the test with a fire alarm in my building this week. I laid the pack on its back so the two front windows were facing up, dragged the babies from their hiding places and dropped them right in. It was shockingly painless compared to getting them into hard plastic carriers (they usually grab onto the metal doors and resist going in but with this there was nothing to grab until they were in it, because of the flexible material). We were the first ones out of the building. Turned out it was a small, real fire in another unit this time and no one was hurt but now I feel 100% sure they will be safe." —Elizabeth Doughty

Price: $47.99 (originally $79.99; available in three sizes and colors)

Promising review: "Mr. Boogie loves these, they are his absolute favorite! You may be able to tell the container is already empty because this sneaky little kitty taught himself to knock it over and give himself treats. 😂 Any time I shake them he comes RUNNING (and this little fat man doesn’t run for anything lol). Boogie-approved!" —Sarah @medicatedmama420

Price: $5.09 for the catnip flavor (originally $8.48)

Promising review: "My small pup can no longer jump on the couch due to arthritis. We tried a few types of steps and ramps, and none were to her liking. Then I discovered this ramp/step hybrid. She loves it. Can easily climb up to the couch for lap time. Highly recommend!" —Patricia Zelno

Price: $31.99+ (originally $95.99; available in seven colors)

Promising review: "We have a Boston Terrier who LOVES cat food but it makes him extremely sick. We needed something to keep him out but let the cats in so we tried this. It works so well we bought a second one for our bedroom so the cats at night can come and go as the please but it keeps the dog in our room and out of their hair if they choose to wonder the house! I’m not sure how I lived without it but I won’t be without it now!" —Mickey Bergman

Price: $13.55 (originally $16.94)

One reviewer even used this to trim their cockatoo's claws and beak!

Promising review: "This is much quieter than I expected! My dog that absolutely hates getting her nails done (with clippers or other nail grinders) has had no issue with the sound or vibration. Only had to coax her with treats the first time and after that she never had an issue." —Cindy Lynd

Price: $35 (originally $43.48)
