We care an awful lot about our pets here at Polygon, and enjoy spoiling them on a regular basis with all manner of treats. For May, our collection of Polygon Picks is all about caring for those pets. While we fully endorse ownership of unconventional pets, whether that's an exotic bird, reptile, or Pseudodragon, this particular list is focused on pets of the canine and feline variety.

We’ve polled the Polygon staff to produce a list that includes our favorite leashes, litter boxes, pet beds, chew toys, and other cool stuff to show some love to our familiars. We’ll return in June with a whole new category of products. How much do you want to spend? $ $$ $$$ $$$$ The Polygon Picks badge is awarded to each of these special products, as we believe they can better our readers’ lives.

Through a mix of research and testing of the market’s wide array of offerings, we’ve singled out these items as being exemplary and worthy of your consideration. These are things we like and we hope you will, too. This cube-shaped beehive chew toy features a pair of small bees for your small- to medium-sized hound to dig out and play with.

Both plush bees feature squeakers inside, while the hive is irrestibably crinkly. —Alice Jovanée Amazon A stylish collar that pays tribute to the thinking chair from Blue's Clues.
