The latest tech for PETS
IFETCH FRENZY
£39 / $39.99 GOIFETCH.COM
This brain game for dogs will keep your pooch guessing where the next ball is coming from. Simply drop the ball into the top and it will reappear randomly through one of the three holes at the base. The iFetch Frenzy is not a ball launcher and the accompanying iFetch mini balls simply roll through one of the holes. There are no electronics within iFetch Frenzy, as it relies entirely on gravity to move the balls. The three mini balls that come with the Frenzy can be stored in a handy hidden compartment. The iFetch Frenzy might be a great toy for older dogs that don’t have the energy to race after far-flung balls, but still enjoy chasing them.
WICKED BALL SE
£39 / $39.99 CHEERBLE.COM
Ideal for small pets with a lot of energy, the Wicked Ball SE is an interactive toy that’s sure to become your pet’s new best friend. There are three modes to choose from, which will cause the ball to either bounce on contact or continually roll around at random in a game of chase. The Wicked Ball is made from natural rubber for a gentle feel in your pet’s mouth and helps reduce the noise of a bouncing ball in the house, but is also tough enough to withstand a daily chomping.
PETKIT PURA MAX
£599 / $569 PETKIT.COM
The PURA MAX by PETKIT is an automatic self-cleaning litter box that comes with an impressive five cleaning modes and a tracking system to monitor your feline’s health. PURA MAX has enough storage to allow up to 15 days without needing to scoop poop for one cat. The 76-litre volume is large enough for most cats and its low entrance means that everything from kittens to senior cats can easily hop inside. Through the companion app, this high-tech litter box not only cleans itself but also measures your cat’s weight, toilet duration and frequency so that you can keep tabs on their health.
