Though all household pets appreciate your challenging intellectual debates and post-opera lectures, even the most loyal animal companion will enjoy a material gift from time to time. For $20, today's Groupon gets you $50 worth of pet products and services at Lola & Penelope's. The Clayton pet pampery was voted in the top five for best pet supplies in 2010 by CityVoters and deemed Riverfront Times' best pet store in 2006 and 2008.

The boutique boasts a collection of doggie essentials, colorful canine clothing, toys, and services to ensure your furry friend is up to snuff. Appropriately attire an affenpinscher by bestowing her with a Juicy Couture embroidered velour hoodie ($45) for a romp in the park or an Oscar Newman peppermint pixie dress ($82) for an elegant evening. Gifting a giant schnauzer with one of Lola & Penelope's toys, such as the squeakable Harry Barker hemp dog bone ($9.75), will keep tempted teeth from chewing all your sun-dried socks. Or peruse Lola & Penelope's plentiful selection of cute leather collars ($12 and up), carriers ($49 and up), dishes ($15 and up), and deodorizing shampoos ($13.75 and up) to find the finishing touch to your home dog or cat collection. Your Groupon is valid for in-store purchases only.

The homey boutique also houses a Wellness Center, where stressed Siamese and squirrel-obsessed Samoyeds can enjoy a relaxing day of beauty. Douse your Devon rex's dry skin with a hydrating hot-oil treatment and savor the soft feel of the feline's skin against your palms, or treat your Irish terrier to a paw-dicure ($10–$20), finished with a butter-balm paw-pad and nose rub. Lola & Penelope's offers everything you need to reward a feral friend and reap copious amounts of love and endless animalistic adoration. Call ahead for appointments.
