Coming home to a cuddly pet is one of life’s great joys. With the latest gadgets and AI technology, pet ownership becomes even more enjoyable and convenient. Here is a roundup of some gadgets that can be the perfect gifts for any pet parent.

The Petlibro AI-Powered Pet Camera costs $99.99. It gives pet owners real-time insights into what their pets are up to. The app lets you control where the camera looks, and it can automatically follow your pet as they move. The camera has two-way audio so you can talk to your pet, and it can make a chirping sound to get their attention. It can recognize up to two pets separately. What makes this device special is the AI descriptions. It can recognize when your pet eats, drinks, uses the litter box, or just walks by. It takes pictures and saves daily highlights in the cloud for up to 30 days. To access the AI features, you need a standard subscription for $12 a month or a premium tier for $17 a month.

The Life360 GPS Pet Tracker costs $49.99. This tracker is a lifesaver for anyone who worries about their pet wandering off. You attach it to your pet’s collar, and it connects to your phone for real-time location tracking. It has geofencing, which alerts you if your pet leaves a safe area like your yard. Additional features include alerts to notify nearby pet owners if your pet escapes and a built-in light to help you locate your pet in the dark. The tracker comes in pink, navy, and black. To use all features, users need either the $14.99-per-month Gold plan or the $24.99-per-month Platinum tier.

The Petlibro Wet Food Feeder costs $149.99. This feeder is all about keeping your cat’s wet food fresh while you’re away. It has three compartments and can hold up to 22.2 ounces, allowing you to be gone for up to 72 hours. The containers are cooled to keep food fresh, and the bowl trays are BPA-free, dishwasher-safe plastic. A mobile app lets you control the feeder, set a feeding schedule, and get notified when your cat eats. The app alerts you if your internet goes out, and during a power outage, the device keeps food cold for up to 12 hours.

The Pawport Smart Pet Door costs $699. If you are fed up with pests sneaking in through regular pet doors, this smart door system is built from heavy-duty steel and aluminum. It features two solid deadbolts that keep out unwanted animals, rain, and snow. A new model connects an interior and exterior door through a tunnel-like enclosure for extra security. Thanks to a tracker tag and motion-sensing tech, the door opens automatically when your pet approaches. An app allows remote control, scheduling, and voice commands through Alexa, Siri, or Google.

The PetKit Automatic Litter Box costs $499.99. The PuraMax 2 model is currently one of the most popular automatic litter boxes available. It features odor control, a sealed waste bin, and a citrus-scented deodorizing spray that activates after every cleaning and at random times. Its paired mobile app tracks your cat’s health by logging how often and how long your cat uses the box, tracking cleaning cycles, and monitoring deodorizing spray releases. It also tracks your cat’s weight changes to help spot potential health issues early.
