The GomiBall will keep your pets entertained even when you’re not at home

It’s no secret that our pets can get a little anxious when we leave the house. But else what can we do but head out to work and promise our cute little floofers that we’ll be back faster than they can say ‘treat!’? Well, you could pick up a GomiBall ($149). The smart pet toy is designed to give cats and dogs hours of entertainment, engagement, and exercise, even when you’re not at home. The autonomous orb features AutoStart and AutoStop function, and will continuously move in irregular patterns to keep your pets stimulated. It’s also capable of interacting with your pet in 12 different ways, is durable and anti-bactierial (you’ve gotta keep your furry friend safe), and can even be controlled via an app. Long story short, it’s basically the stuff of doggy daydreams.

About

I’m a freelance games and technology journalist currently mashing my keyboard in the name of fine institutions like Stuff, where you'll usually find me waxing lyrical about the latest mobile morsels. I've also been known to cook up some decidedly delicious reviews from time to time, and was once dubbed 'the games industry's answer to Nigella Lawson' by someone probably somewhere.
