6 high-tech gifts for your pets

You can’t forget about your pets this holiday season! Your furry friends deserve so much more than the old dog bone or squeaky toy. Here’s a list of high-tech gifts fit for the cuddly best friend in your life, because they need a little internet in their life, too…

This high-tech dispenser does more than just feed your pet. The dispenser connects via WiFi, has a built in camera and links to an app so you can check up on and interact with your pet even when you’re not at home. You can see them, speak to them, give them a treat and snap a photo with the wide-angle camera.

Yes, cats like to play dress up too! And now they can with a 3D printed cat armor. Thingiverse user PrintThatThing created a downloadable design for a suit of armour just for your kitty cat. The armour design even includes a cat tag holder and a hole for a leash.

This is the ultimate activity monitor for your dog, tracking their progress so that you can understand your dog’s health and changes in behaviour. You can see all of your dog’s data on the app, then compare data with similar dogs or even share it with your vet. It’s also possible to share photos with your friends and family through the app.


So, you can use this app to find your dog a play date. Bark’N’Borrow is like Tinder for the dog community and all sorts of dog lovers. Maybe you just want your dog to meet and play with other dogs, no matter who you are, you can create a profile and match your dog with other dogs.

The iFetch Too is an automatic ball dispenser that lets your dog play fetch even when you’re not around. It is an upgrade from the iFetch that only used miniature balls for small dogs; the iFetch Too shoots out standard-sized tennis balls for bigger dogs.

The laptop scratching post isn’t super high-tech, its actually just cardboard and a scratchpad. But it is perfect for a kitty who loves to walk all over your laptop keyboard and use the screen to scratch its back, there’s even a mouse!


Take a look through these high-tech gift ideas, and make sure your pets are spoiled this holiday season!
