Dogs, like humans, sometimes need diapers. PoochPants (hilariously named) has you covered if you need a pack of doggy diapers.

You can find the PoochPants diapers online or at stores like Petco and Target. The diapers are absorbent, odor-controlling, and, best of all, comfortable. They are also leak-proof and washable, so you can reuse them. PoochPants come in different sizes, so make sure to read the size specifications carefully before buying.
48. Pizza Cat Bed
What It Does: Cat bed shaped like a pizza
What It Costs: $28*
All cats are different, as far as their sleeping arrangements go. Some cats refuse to sleep anywhere but your bed, while others choose strange parts of the house, like under the bed or inside the couch. If your cat is one of very few and will actually sleep in a cat bed, first of all, congratulations.

Secondly, get them a fun bed, like this $28 pizza-shaped bed from Meowingtons. It has plush fabric, orthopedic-support foam cushions, and anchovy- and pepperoni-shaped pillows with squeakers in them, making this both a bed and a toy. FYI, the pillows are attached, but Meowingtons says that they can easily be detached with a simple snip of the scissors.
49. Goldfish Walker
What It Does: Lets you walk your goldfish like any other pet
What It Costs: Unknown
Goldfish are far different from any other pet, and we don’t mean that just in the obvious different-species way. A lot of fish owners might feel as though they don’t have a connection with their goldfish. After all, it’s not like you can take them on a walk or to the park.
Goldfish Walker @designswan/Pinterest
Until now. Mick Madden, a fish-owner and metal-worker from England, invented this portable “goldfish walker” in 2014 after deciding his goldfish needed to get out and see the world. Using his metal-working skills, he designed this pull-along, sturdy aquarium holder. His goldfish can ride comfortably and safely while taking in all the outdoors has to offer. According to Madden, “They [the fish] love it.”
50. Spider Costume For Dogs
What It Does: Turns your dog into a spider
What It Costs: $27*
Speaking of California Costumes, this spider getup is sure to freak out anyone in your house who doesn’t know what the dog is dressing up as for Halloween. The costume costs $27 on Amazon, and it comes in extra-small, small, medium, and large sizes. The costume is 100% polyester, so it should be easy to clean.

The costume will give your dog eight legs, turning it into a hilarious (or terrifying, depending on how you feel about spiders) orange and black, eyed-eyed creature. The foam legs are sewn into the costume, so they’ll flop around like a spider crawling when your dog walks.
51. Tin Foil Hats For Cats
What It Does: Protects your cat from government control
What It Costs: $6.99*
Sold by Perpetual Kid for $6.99, this tin foil cat hat will keep your pet safe from electromagnetic and gamma rays, RFID, government mind control, ESP, dog assassins, and whatever else might be lurking out there. If you’ve spotted your cat watching a lot of YouTube conspiracy theory videos, it might be time to get him or her this foil hat.

After all, if the government can’t get to you, the likely next target will be your cat. Your cat knows everything about you, and nefarious control of its brain can easily be mistaken for the usual feline indifference.
52. Ouija Board Dog Toy
What It Does: Your dog can chew on something while contacting spirits
What It Costs: $6.98*
You can find this FRISCO Ouija Board Chew Toy on Chewy.com for $7. It is a squeaky dog toy, so be prepared to hear a lot of it. If your dog seems like he or she wants to contact spirits while chewing on something, then this toy is perfect for him or her.

There are tons of weirdly-shaped chew toys for dogs, and, compared to them, this Ouija board is pretty tame. You can also get your dog a Bloody Mary, pizza-shaped, mustache, Rotisserie chicken, and “Mr. Poops” toy. There is also a dog toy for literally every politician, so, no matter who you don’t like, you can find your dog a replica of them.

What It Costs: $6*
Available on Chewy.com, this Mad Cat Burrito Kicker Catnip Toy will be sure to drive your cat nuts (in a good way). It costs just $6, and it looks like a giant, big-eyed burrito. Inside the burrito is a mix of premium catnip and silvervine, both of which are pesticide-free and pure to keep your cat safe.

The burrito has multiple textures, so it’s ideal for whatever your cat wants to do with it, from kicking it to cuddling with it. Silvervine, for those who aren’t familiar with it, is a species of kiwifruit that is native to eastern Asia’s mountainous regions. It is a more potent alternative to catnip.
54. Fascinations AntWorks Illuminated Blue
What It Does: Gives your ants a bright, glowy place to hang out
What It Costs: $13.90*
Most of the toys on this list are for dogs and cats, but let’s not forget about our insect friends. Some people keep ant farms. These farms are nests for ants, and they let people observe classic ant behaviors, such as building, eating, and doing nothing.

If you want to give your ants a place to trip out, buy them this Antworks Illuminator. It costs under $14, for the LED base, which will light up your ant farm and let you see the ants, even at night. Funny pet toys come in all shapes and sizes—and they can apply to any pet, no matter how tiny.
55. PooTrap
What It Does: Bag attaches to dog’s butt to catch poop
What It Costs: $30-$40*
This crazy thing is an example of what not to buy your pet. TechCrunch labeled the PooTrap as an invention for people who shouldn’t be dog-owners in the first place. The PooTrap is an apparatus that you strap onto your dog when you take it outside. The bag catches the poop, eliminating the usual poop collection process for which human owners are responsible.

According to reviews, basically every dog that wears this contraption hates it. Dogs don’t want to walk around with a bag stuck to their butt. With the PooTrap, you’ll spend $30 to $40 on something that will only upset your pet.
