Most pet stores make you piece together 8 different products before you even bring your new dog or cat home — food, bowls, a bed, grooming stuff, toys — and half the time you way overbuy or forget something obvious.

We got tired of watching first-time pet owners (myself included, a few years back) spend $200+ figuring this out through trial and error. So we put together one box that just covers the essentials: a food sample to transition without upsetting their stomach, bowls, a bed starter piece, basic grooming tools, and a couple of toys that actually hold up.

It's $49.99, one time, no subscription trap. If you're bringing home a new dog or cat soon (or know someone who is), this is built for exactly that first week.

Happy to answer questions here if you're on the fence about what's included.
