Pet Products for January 2014

　
Happy New Year! I hope by the time you read this, your New Year is off to a great start. In my search for pet products to review over the last year, I've come across hundreds of amazing products. Sadly, many of them don't make it into my articles for one reason or another. So as a tribute to 2013, the products for this month are my favorites that just didn't make it in before.

Kitty's Crumble: A one-of-a-kind all natural cat litter. Kitty's Crumble is made from organic coir (coconut husks), a 100% renewable resource, grown without the use of irrigation, fertilizers, pesticides, or chemicals making it the ultimate environmentally friendly litter. The husks are specially processed to produce an earth-like feel, while naturally being super-absorbent and odor-eliminating. The litter is biodegradable and easily recycled into your garden or compost bin once waste is removed. These features make it the ideal litter, especially for somebody watching their carbon footprint. Cats love it, and so will you! (Due to its light weight, it provides 2 -3 times more litter per pound). $15.99 for 14lb bag.

Spot Spotter HD: The Simple Solution Spot Spotter HD is the way to go if you have unsolved urine odors in your house. Finding the spots can be hard, making cleaning them almost impossible. The Spot Spotter uses powerful UltraViolet light to make the urine stains "glow-in-the-dark"; highly visible to the human eye. Once found, they can be treated and cleaned. $13.99 (batteries included).

A&E Java Wood Bird Toys: This collection of bird toys from A&E is bound to make you and your bird happy. Java Wood takes pride in making unique products from non-productive coffee trees (hence the name) and various other natural, recycled, and earth-friendly materials. Each toy is designed with the bird in mind, to encourage physical and mental activity. Their large assortment of toys can be viewed and purchased online from many websites. Prices vary.

A&H Dental Spray for dogs: Another great product from the trusted brand, Arm & Hammer. Dental Spray unitizes the safe yet strong cleaning power of baking soda, to fight tarter, freshen breath and clean your dogs teeth. Simply lift lips, spray on teeth/gums and your done. Great for dogs who resist physical brushing. 4 fluid ounces. $8.99.

The Clawguard: A common problem for dog owners is the damage caused by dogs scratching at the door. You can supervise your dog when you're home, but not when you leave. Clawguard is a simple but effective way of protecting your doors and trim. Made out of translucent plastic, it hangs from the doorknob with velcro tabs to keep it secure and can be removed at any time. Trimable (with scissors) to perfectly fit your door. 100% recycled, and made in the USA. $21.95.

I hope you enjoyed this month's article as much as I've enjoyed finding these products. As always, if you find a product you think others would like to know about, email me and it may end up in a future article. Until next month, stay warm!
