Unique & Cute Gift Ideas for Cats & Cat Lovers

Topics:

Cats are part of the family, and that means they get gifts, too, at birthdays and holidays. Here are some great gift ideas for cat moms, dads, ‘crazy’ cat ladies, cat-obsessed friends and all types of cat people – and some ideas for toys or presents sure to warm the heart of your feline furbaby.

1.Gifts, Toys, & Accessories for Your Cat

Pets dressed up for the holidays.

When the holidays come around, there are presents for everyone, including your cat. Beware, though: even if you get kitty the best cat toy for Christmas, they may prefer to play with the crumpled wrapping paper or the ribbon – at least at first. This should encourage you to wrap your cat’s gifts because now kitty gets two presents, one for now, and one for later!

 

A New Place to Nap: Cat Beds Make Great Gifts

Every cat parent knows the expression, “if I fits, I sits,” with kitty enjoying every cardboard box, grocery bag, suitcase, or random pile of clothes as a great place to hunker down, loaf, and catch some zzzz’s. For a great gift for their birthday, Christmas, or another holiday, give your special cuddlebug an upgrade with a soft and personal cat bed that they’ll love to curl up in.

 

A cat bed is more than a convenience or a nice present. Elder cats ( cat is considered senior at age 11) may have more joint pain and a soft foam bed keeps them off the floor and comfortable. Senior kitties also especially prefer warm spaces and enjoy sleeping on heated bedding. Donut-shaped cat beds often help kitties feel less anxious and more protected.

 

When their new cat bed becomes a favored place to rest their chins or stretch out to feel the sunshine on their stomachs, perhaps your laptop will not look so desirable as a place to nap! A present for both you and your kitty!

 

Cat Chaser Toys Bring Out the Best Feline Fun

Your cat will love the novelty and fun of a new chaser toy for Christmas or an anytime gift. It’s always fun to chase and pounce, and chaser toys are designed for your cat’s instincts to hunt.

 

Often made with feathers to mimic a bird or with fuzz and a tail to imitate mice, chaser toys come in two types: the ones that dangle from a string on the end of a stick so you can interact with your kitty and build bonds through play and ones designed for solo play. When you give your cat a new chaser toy, you also get to enjoy their antics as they wiggle their rears, pupils dilate, and they pounce to capture their “prey.”

 

Some toys are designed for cats who like to leap and catch in mid-air, while others are for ground hunters. If you’re looking for something more unique, check out your local pet store or the artists on Etsy who are making themed, personal, and custom cat chaser toys.

 

A New Scratching Post is Appreciated by Kitty and Cat Moms & Dads

Cat’s claws shed and scratching is part of cat behavior to keep claws healthy and stretch their spines. Cats that don’t have appropriate places to scratch may use your upholstered furniture or the corner of your mattress, which seem perfect to them for their needs. Even if you have a scratching post for kitty, they do wear out and need to be replaced.

For a luxury cat gift, this scratching post is 32” tall so that even larger furbabies can reach up and get a full stretch. The base is weighted to help eliminate tips and wobbles, and the sisal material inspires kitty to scratch without the danger of snagging a nail. Plus, it comes in a classy design and multiple colors that will blend with home décor.

If you’re a DIY-er, why not try making a cat tree or scratching post for your feline bestie? You and kitty can work together making the gift, and he is sure to test it out while in progress!

One of the best gifts you can give your cat is a safe, comfortable and clean place to do their business.

    Keep your kitty happy by using a litter they like, maintaining the litter box daily, and putting the box in a safe place away from the hustle and bustle of the holidays or your everyday life.
