If you're anything like us, shopping for your pet and treating them to new toys is probably one of your favourite activities. And while we're typically good at displaying shopping restraint in other areas of our lives, when it comes to all things pet related, that goes entirely out the window.
While we've tried to reign in this treat and toy buying, it still seems to hit our wallets hard. However, wanting to splurge on your pet doesn't always have to mean blowing your budget. The key is shopping smart and taking advantage of major sales to stock up on treats and toys your pets can enjoy throughout the year.
With something for every pet on offer, from tech and interactive toys that will keep them entertained for hours to soft and comforting chew toys, it's the perfect opportunity to upgrade your pets' stash or treat them to something new.
Not sure where to start? Along with the experts at Pet Circle, we've curated a list of the best-selling cat and dog toys.
