Face it, our pets are truly our best friends, especially since we spent the last year holed up at home with them.
Be it a dog, cat, bunny, fish or any of the other furry (or scaled) friends we invite into our homes, pets are members of the family and deserve only the best when it comes to their care. This year, many of us welcomed in a new pandemic pet, keeping us company during an otherwise isolating time.
But you don’t even need to leave your animal sanctuary for supplies since you can order everything you need for pets from the comfort of your own home.
Perfect for the busy pet parent, here are the best online pet supply stores you can order right now, sending food, treats, medications and other must-haves right to your doggie door.
1. Chewy
Chewy is your one-stop-shop for any pet you have, be it a dog or cat or a reptile, bird and even a farm animal.
Not only do they carry adorable items like dog and cat toys and furniture, but they also sell essentials like medications and food that you never want to be caught without. The best part is they offer an auto-ship service that automatically delivers your order to your door, so you never forget Fido’s food ever again.
2. Amazon Pets

Everything is designed with your cat in mind, and if they are a finicky feline, you can return hassle-free for 90 days.

Kitty Poo Club gets right down to business when it comes to your cat’s business, with a subscription-based litter box club for you and your kitty. The company sends you an easy to install and recyclable litter box and a bag of litter of your choice each month, so all you have to do is toss the old one and assemble the new one each time a new one comes in the mail.
Choose between four different types of litter for your box, and then be sure to add some treats, toys and accessories to your cart too, and they’ll be purring at the door waiting for their new box to come in the mail.

This one is for all you cool cats and kittens out there in need of some new litter.
PrettyLitter doubles as an odor-controlling litter and a doctor-to-go, as the litter changes colors depending on your cat’s health. After they do their business, the litter will clump like normal, but also change color to signal if your cat is healthy or has an issue like a high pH that may mean a bladder problem, kidney issues, a UTI and other common illnesses.
