Not everyone has time to shop around and look for the newest items on the market that could appeal to the loved ones and colleagues on their gift-giving lists. (Or for themselves, because let’s be honest, we look at holiday gift guides and deals for ourselves just as much as for others.)

Here is a helpful list of suggestions for the pet owners (and those who plan to be) in your life.

Furminator Short Hair De-Shedding Tool for Cats

Cats have an excellent reputation for self-grooming and taking care of themselves. But every now and then they need some help with their hair. This de-shedding tool has nearly 3,000 reviews on Amazon, the vast majority raving how easy it is to use and trim through the topcoat to remove loose undercoat hair. Kitties are kept safe thanks to the curved SkinGuard design gliding over the cat’s skin, helping keep the coat free of dirt and debris. Suggested retail price: $22

Whistle Switch

There are a growing number of GPS collars for cats and dogs on the market, but for the last few years, Whistle has outpaced them all in user experience and accuracy—especially when it comes to your pet’s location. The brand’s newest model is the Whistle Switch Smart Collar—available in small, medium, and large—which makes it easier for owners to switch out collar sizes, styles, and battery colors if they so desire. SRP: $200

Sugarwish Dog Treats

Sugarwish found a sweet spot as the candygram of the 21st century, making it ridiculously easy to send someone a sweet or savory gift that the receiver can customize themselves. (Not to mention the boxes fit nicely in most mailboxes.) Sugarwish is expanding with treats optimized for our favorite four-legged friends, with bite-size treats made from ingredients like peanut butter, oatmeal, sweet potato, and bacon. SRP: Starts at $22

Whiskey & Woof ‘No. 22 Sophisticate’ Bourbon and Musk Scented Candle

Whiskey & Woof candles and scents are inspired by humans’ best companions and their owners who seek the finer things, both in their own home and while they travel. Founded by Chinese-Australian and Irish-American Coco Quill, her mission was to create a sophisticated ambiance that spoke to all genders. Thus, the appropriately-named No. 22 Sophisticate is a blend of 22 fragrances, fused together to inspire a sophisticated atmosphere with bourbon, amber noir, and sandalwood scents. SRP: $18 to $65

Fife Arms Tweet Dog Coat

For dogs with shorter hair, a winter sweater or coat is not just an accessory based on the owner’s fancy—it’s critical in colder, freezing temperatures. Made in Scotland, the Fife Arms Tweed Dog Coat is a truly posh and classic style—and chances are your dog will be better dressed than you. SRP: $46 to $56

‘Frank for a Cause’ Care Package

Throughout the month of November only, Napa Valley winery Frank Family Vineyards will donate 20% of proceeds from each bottle of 2018 Napa Valley Merlot ($45) sold online to Humane Society of the United States, an animal welfare organization. Included with each care package will be a bottle of wine and a Frank Family Vineyards pet bandana, available in small and large sizes. SRP: $45
