Choosing Mother’s Day gifts is no simple task — and each of us has such a unique mom that one-to-one comparison doesn’t cut it. For the many moms out there and the many folks looking to get them something special to celebrate them, we compiled different gifts for different types of mom, from the overworked to the overly tidy.

The Mother Who Loves Cats

‌

WOpet’s Seven-Liter Automatic Pet Feeder, $90 at Amazon: With an it’s-dinner-time! capability to call your cat to it, enabled portion control, and programmable, this pet feeder can basically take over feeding chores and execute them more efficiently than your mom ever could so can spend more time doing her own thing.

The Mother Who Reads and Reads

The Mother Who Likes To Sleep Hard

nodpod’s Weighted Sleep Mask, $30 on Amazon: Using polyethylene beads, nodpod will mold to the contours of her face, creating a custom, light-blocking effect that sets it apart from many other eye masks. But it’s not just that it blocks light better than other eye masks — it could also really help her fall asleep.

The Mother With a Green Thumb

Find more handmade art from global artists at NOVICA’s marketplace if you’ve got something more specific in mind.

The Mother Who Cares About Her Health

The Mother Who Likes to Cook

Le Creuset’s Signature Skillet, $120 at LeCreuset: It’s not only striking in appearance (and highly customizable in that sense) but also packs a functional punch. Of course, the Signature will spread heat evenly like any cast iron worth its weight in cast iron, giving you the ability to better slow-cook, roast, sear, stir-fry (and go between stove and oven as you please).

The Mother Who Likes Things Tidy

Dyson’s V10 Cordless Vacuum Cleaner, $526 on Amazon: Yeah, she’s cleaned up after you for years and what better way to thank her than with a top-of-the-line, top-rated, and best-selling cordless vacuum from Dyson. 1,200 reviewers leave this sleek vac a 4.3-star-average — it’s the least you can do.
