With the holiday season upon us, the malls are packed with eager shoppers looking for the perfect presents for their family members.  Sometimes forgotten are our pets. Their constant love and affection is just one reason why they should receive a present, too.  Here are some pet present ideas (all under $30) to keep in mind while holiday shopping.

Dogs:

1. Get your dog the perfect holiday apparel.  From dresses for the ladies, Santa clothes, and a reindeer outfit, these clothes will have your dog looking festive and fun.

2.  No dog is fully dressed without a collar and ID tag.  With fun prints and bright colors, make your dog’s accessories stand out.  Customize your pet’s ID tag by engraving their name on your choice of a heart, circular or bone shaped tag.  Keep your pet safe, while keeping them stylish.

3.  Dogs demand constant attention. From tennis balls and tug-of-war toys to chew toys and squeakers, your dog will never go bored. Chose from a wide selection of toys and even edible chew bones, to keep your dog entertained.  Prices range from $5-$20.

Cats:

1. Instead of your curtains, get your cat the perfect cat tree bed and scratch posts.  These furniture items come in a variety of different configurations. With tunnels, ladders, and resting pads, this is the perfect place for your cat to perch.

2.  Entertain your cat without leaving the comfort of your favorite chair.  The laser pet toy engages your cat in an exciting way.  This toy promotes exercise while keeping it fun.  Simply place the toy on a flat surface, turn it on and watch your cat chase the laser patterns.

3. Every cat enjoys a good hideout.  The ABO gear cat fun tunnel allows your cat a safe lookout, comfy resting place and endless fun.

Gerbils:

1. Let your pet work off their holiday meal, using the small animal mesh exercise wheel.  This agility toy allows your pet to enjoy a good workout.  The wheel comes in many colors and is easy to clean and use.

2. After a long, tiring day your ferret will need a cozy place to rest.  Whether its a comfy bed or a hammock, allow your pet to relax.  All beds come in a variety of different colors and fun patterns.

3.  The runabout ball helps your pet exercise while having fun.  This 13″ inch ball allows your pet lots of room to move about.

Birds:

1. Every bird should have the pleasure of having a large, spacious cage.

2. Furnish your birds home with a water bowl, ladder, bells, and a swing.  The water bowl can be easily attached to your bird’s cage and is spill proof.

3. Add toys and accessories for fun and games.
