A practical, research-led mini-guide covering safer materials, how to choose responsibly, and curated resources for dogs, cats, birds and small pets. Built by the team behind EcoFurball.com.
Pets interact with toys using their mouths and paws, so materials and finishes matter. Choosing responsibly sourced rubber, recycled or compostable fibres, plant-based dyes, and durable designs reduces waste and lowers the risk of unnecessary chemical exposure. It also helps cut down on fast-trash plastic that breaks quickly and ends up in landfill.
