Black Friday isn’t just about grabbing yourself a new kitchen appliance, telly or smart tech piece.
Your furry, feathery and scaly friends can also grab a bargain – although you will have to do the buying part for them.
Pet deals on Black Friday are often underappreciated, so while everyone else is rushing out to buy a new sofa, you can be stocking up on some bits which will make your life as a pet parent much easier.
When Is Black Friday 2021?
This year, Black Friday is on the 26th November 2021.
However, deals begin earlier every year, with some seen mid-November and extending all the way to the 29th November (Cyber Monday), if not beyond.
Amazon first brought the US tradition to the UK and as usual, they have started already.
Their Early Black Friday Deals have seen huge savings, but we will be bringing you deals from plenty of other retailers too.
What Can I Buy For Pets On Black Friday?
Dozens of different stores will get involved in Black Friday, so you will be able to buy everything from food and poo bags to beds, new fish tanks and electricals.
Pet tech is huge right now, with cameras, GPS collars, automatic feeders and microchip cat flaps all the rage. Grabbing one of these on Black Friday will likely save you a lot of pennies.
If you like to bulk buy to make the most of savings, Black Friday can help you save even more. Amazon can be good here, with things delivered the next day.
Other things to look out for are essentials like flea treatments, toys, or even spare collars, leads and tanks for those ‘just in case’ moments.
