Adventures
- [Coastal Pet] Single-Ply Pet Leash - Black (3/8” x 6’)
Smaller than most dog leashes and just the right size/weight for a cat. - [FLEXI] Retractable Cord Pet Walking Leash - for Pets up to 18 lbs (X-Small/10 ft)
XS seemed right for a cat. Others were too big/bulky. - [NATUYA] Small Cat Carrier Sling
For going out and about in the neighborhood. - [Voyager] Step-in Lock Pet Harness XS
Fits my 4.4kg kitty.
Cat Maintenance and/or Cleaning
[Bautrium] 3-in-1 Electric Cat Grooming Clippers
Pee/poop butt prevention; want to find a better one at some point with a hair guard that isn’t completely useless.- [oneisall] 3 in 1 CordlessCat Clippers
Found a better one. - [BLACK+DECKER] Pet Hair Remover Roller (HMSCT0001)
Great for the couch and bed; works a little better than the equivalent XL Chom Chom and has a window to see when it’s full. - [Coastal Pet] Li’l Pals Dog Slicker Brush with Coated Tips
Good for detailing small areas, especially around the neck & mane. - [itPlus] Self Cleaning Cat Slicker Brush
A first pass brush with a hair ejection function. - [OXO] Good Grips Pet Hair Lint Remover
The self cleaning port is useful for storage and for defurring the brush. - [Equigroomer] Deshedding Brush
Good for removing loose hairs in shedding season. - Stainless Steel Pet Grooming Combs (Red, Black)
These work much better than wet wipes for removing dried…whatever from fur. - [Nature’s Miracle] Enzymatic Stain and Pet Odor Eliminator (32oz Spray)
Enzymes work better than traditional options for certain categories of emissions; thankfully haven’t had to use this much.
Cat Parking
- [Furcato] Floor to Ceiling Cat Tower (aka “Burj Pixel”)
Large enough top platform for an adult ragdoll to curl up and sleep. - [GE] Sleeplite Amber LED Night Lights with Dusk to Dawn Sensor, 2 Pack
Lighting the litter box area, and cat-trip prevention. - [lesypet] Non-Slip Washable Round Grey Cat Bed (Medium/15.75”)
Round bed. - [lesypet] Non-Slip Washable Rectangular Grey Cat Bed (Small/15”x10”)
Compact rectangular bed good for in front of the pc monitor. - [lesypet] Non-Slip Washable Rectangular Grey Cat Bed (Medium/22”x16”)
Larger bed good for an extended sprawl. - [Luciphia] 3 Pack Soft Grey Sherpa Throw in Medium (30”x20”)
Pint sized cozy-blankies. - [New Cat Condos] 4 Tier Solid Wood Sturdy Cat Tower
Good basic cat tree with actually usable sized platforms. It’s way more robust than Amazon particle board offerings. I just wish the carpet shed a little less. - [TiLanmiy] Collapsible Suede Cat Tunnel/Indoor Play Tube (Small)
I find these “suede” ones better than the pure nylon ones, less noisy and more durable. - [TiLanmiy] Collapsible Suede Cat Tunnel/Indoor Play Tube (Medium)
Good for turning into a U shape, can also be combined with the short one for extra novelty. - [Zakkart] 2PC Easy Fold Cat Window Perch
Great for adding wall climbing when you have more free windows than spare walls. I prefer the aesthetics of these to the kinds with a hypotenuse support. Suction cups have held up well so far.
Cat Scritchies & Drinkies
- [AccEncyc] 3 Pack Dual-Side Corrugated Cardboard Scratching Pad (16.5”Lx8.1”Wx0.8”H)
Most cost effective ones I’ve found so far that aren’t a huge multi-pack. - [PETKIT] Water Fountain with Ultra Quiet Wireless Pump (65oz/1.85L)
Small footprint, reasonable design, and very quiet. Cheap aftermarket filters available. - Dual USB Wall Charger 2-Pack (2.4A)
Allows clean wiring of the fountain. - [TRIXIE] Parla Cat Scratching Post 24.25”
Basic scratching post.
Medicinal
- [Jarrow] Saccharomyces Boulardii Probiotics + MOS 5 Billion CFU Probiotic Yeast
Short effect probiotics. - [NOW] Slippery Elm 400mg Capsules
Emergency tummy calming for hoomans and cats. - [Nutramax] Proviable Health Supplement (30 Count)
Long effect probiotics. - [ZYMOX] Enzymatic Ear Solution with 0.5% Hydrocortisone (1.25oz)
Treats
- [Green Juju] Salmon Blue Freeze-Dried Whole Food Bites for Dogs & Cats
They’re very smelly so good for certain kinds of treat puzzles. - [Inaba] Churu Tube Treats
Healthy treats for the cat; 20/40/100 packs switch off for being most cost effective depending on sales. - Temptations Crunchy & Soft Cat Treats
Cat Doritos. Good for treat puzzles that might retain crumbs of other treats. - [Vital Essentials] Minnow Cat Treats
Nice as an auxiliary treat, a bit messy.
Toilet
- [Catit] Go Natural Pea Husk Clumping Cat Litter
Minimal dust, seems to last well enough, ordering on Chewy or Amazon depending on sales. - [Petfamily] Jumbo Hooded Cat Litter Box with Transparent Lid
Hard to find a hooded litter box that still lets you check the state of the litter - this thing works great without having to hack up a sterilite container. - [Tookincmo] ABS Cat Litter Scooper with Caddy - 85° Matte Dark Grey
Self-storing litter scoop. Ours has broken once, so I’ll likely replace it with something else if it breaks again. - [Winco] Anti-Jamming Steam Pan, Full-Size x 6-Inch
Auxiliary litter box with larger footprint; pretty much invincible and will fit a ragdoll of nearly any age/size.
Toys
- [AGYM] 30 Pack Cat Springs
They always get lost…so I got 30 of them. - [Catstages] So Meowsome 90s Themed Plush Cat Toys (3Pk)
Potentially more amusing for the humans than the cat, but the cat seems to like them too. - [Catstages] Lil’ Avocato Dental Health Catnip Cat Chew Toy
Rolls around nicely when swatted by a paw. - [Catstages] Kitty Cube Interactive Treat Puzzle
Good for spacing out the treats a little bit + working those feline neurons. - [Catstages] Straw-Babies Cat Toy, 3 Pack
- “Defense Drone” for Distracting Cat + Bonus Containment Mat
Replacements available en masse from various AliExpress vendors; quality varies. - [DoogCat] Wooden 3-Level Ball Tower with 9 Removable Track Balls (Medium)
I got mine for $15 on Temu since it was half the cost as the Amazon ones. These wood ones are a lot nicer than the plastic ones since the balls roll more freely and make satisfying clanking noises. - [MeoHui] Retractable Wand Toy and Feather Toys Refills
Cat goes harder for these than any other toy; the retractableness of the wand is very convenient for storing around the house and the bendiness is pretty ideal. - [Potaroma] 3 Pcs Soft Linen Crinkle Fish Kicker Toys (7.8”)
Beautifully derpy fish for bunny kicking. - [Potaroma] 3in1 Automatic Cat Wanding Toy
Kitty tv.
Remote Peeping
-
[ENABOT] ROLA PetPal AI Robot Pet Companion
Can remote control drive this via a smartphone app and throw treats at the cat while away, do little dances, etc. Good for checking if she’s under the couch/bed where the smartcams can’t see. Can mildly handle carpet. Very cute noises, likes to shout “ROLA ROLA” and “IM GOING HOME TO CHAWGE.” -
[ENABOT] ROLA PetPal Treat Dispenser Module
A complete ripoff that should have been included with the Petpal rather than sold separately. However, it is very satisfying to use. -
[TP-Link Tapo] C121 2K+ Indoor/Outdoor Wired Security Camera
I mounted one of these stationary cams above each of her cat trees. -
[TP-Link Tapo] C220 2K QHD Pan/Tilt Indoor Pet Camera
This one has PTZ functionality, and watches over the living room. I printed off one of these so I could put it on top of a bookshelf. The degrees of freedom it has clearly expect it to be inverted, so it was nearly unusable without it.
Printables
-
FELIX Modular Treat Puzzles
I started her with the small mini ones, then upgraded to the larger ones once she had the technique down. -
Quad Cup Treat Puzzle
Challenge mode for learning the scooping-with-a-paw technique. Looks good in a dual-color PLA. -
Wheel Guards
Keeps the cat’s tail away from office chair wheels. It’s targeted at Aerons, but I simply scaled down the model until it fit with the right degree of friction on my own chair.
