Cats have been part of my family all of my life. My mum took in a skittish feral cat before I was born. When I was seven, we got a calico. She let me dress her in baby clothes and wheel her around in a doll buggy. She always knew when I was sad, and wouldn’t leave my side until I felt better. Since then, I have shared my life with other felines, each with their own distinct personalities.
It takes unique individuals to appreciate and revere cats (and other animals). I think you will find these cat gifts are as unique and special as those they will be given to.
Cat Tea Infuser Mug
Tea gifts for cat people
While there are many tea gifts available, I had to include these special ones for cat lovers. This novelty has a fish in the cat’s belly to put loose tea in. So cute!
Cat tea spoons will be perfect for stirring milk and sugar into the tea. Get all three gifts to make a gift set.
I love this cat and kittens teapot. It is perfect for tea for two.
Cat Scratch Laptop
Cat presents for work
My cat always tries to type on my laptop. She has on occasion disconnected my second screen, started playing music, and somehow erased enough letters in a word I typed to spell the word cat. If this is your cat, she will need her own cat laptop, which doubles as a scratching post.
Your cat works long hours. Give her a comfortable cushion for her chair. This fluffy pillow is shaped like a cat paw. Your cat will also need a labelled inbox for all of her work stuff.
Don’t forget some office supplies for yourself. This cat office accessory set includes cat themed paper clips, sticky notes, pens, and more.
Personalised Cat Socks
Personalised gifts for cat lovers
You can give these adorable socks as a gift from the cat.
Custom cat ornaments are great cat themed gifts. Some even allow for a photo of their kitty. Build a whole set of ornaments.
As a special gift for cat owners, have an artist create a cat portrait from their photo.
Outdoor Cat Home
Cat Christmas presents
These outdoor homes are insulated and heat the interior with the cat’s body heat. Some are fitted with microchip doors so only your cat can get in. However, you can choose one without the microchip sensor or deactivate it to give a safe space to feral cats.
Cat houses aren’t just for the outdoors. Get your furry friend a decorative cat home for inside. You can also get her a cosy cat bed. However, the dog might want one for himself. In that case get your kitty one that can be placed up high.
LED Cat Night Light
Cat lover gifts for kids
This cute night light will keep their room aglow with numerous colour modes emanating from this fat cat.
Girls will love this 3 piece cat bag set. It comes with a cat ear headband, shoulder bag, and a coin purse all with a grinning cat. Boys and girls will love the challenge of putting together their own kitty with a cat block kit.
For those who aren’t able to have a real cat, get them an interactive kitten plush. It responds to claps and moves and meows like a real cat.
Yoga With Your Cat
Gifts about cats
I love doing yoga, but my cat often tries to join in. Anyone that has tried to exercise at home with a cat around will love this book. Of course, it has actual instructions for yoga poses as well.
For another interesting book about cats, give them Pawmistry. This hilarious book will help divine signs your cat is giving you regarding the future. The same author writes Cat Tarot which comes with a set of tarot cards and a book to help the reader learn from cat wisdom.
For those who prefer playing games about cats, Cat Opoly provides a cat-like twist to the classic Monopoly board game.
Or for those who prefer to do a puzzle about cats, this cat on a bookshelf puzzle will peak their interest. I actually had a similar cross stitch that I made into a pillow for my sister-in-law. I love the cat related book titles.
Cat Paw Oven Mitts
Crazy cat lady gifts
There are many cat themed oven mitts, but I like these the best because they look like actual paws.
What to get someone who loves cats? Fat cat salt and pepper shakers are definitely on the list for a crazy cat lady.
Then get her a cat biscuit jar to keep snacks in. Does she like to make her own biscuits? Cat measuring spoons and a cat shaped biscuit cutter will help her with her baking.
Let Kitty roam the house freely. Use a cat door wedge to keep doors propped open. Then nobody has to stop their cooking to let their fur ball back in the room.
Dancing Fish Toy
Cat related gifts
This crazy fish toy makes a great Christmas gift for your fur baby. It is filled with catnip and flops around like a real fish.
If you have more than one cat, they can share a fishing game. Just place these little light up fish in a pan of water. They will swim around while your kitties try to catch them. They will also like batting at cat teaser balls. As a one player game, kitty will love trying to catch this electronic mouse in this running mouse game.
As a luxury gift for cat lovers, give them a cat condo for their feline friend. It contains both places to play and lounge, which is what cats do best.
Phrenology Cat
Unusual gifts for cat lovers
This inexpensive gift for cat lovers will help them discover where their cat’s emotions and thoughts are located in their head. This novelty gift comes with a ceramic cat head and booklet filled with fun facts about cat phrenology.
For another unique gift for cat lovers, get lucky cat chopsticks. The set includes five pairs of chopsticks, each with a lucky cat chopstick holder.
Another cat gift you don’t see everyday is a Nemesis Now Clutch Purse. It has beautiful artwork featuring a black cat.
Cat Water Fountain
Gift ideas for cat lovers’ cats
As cats age they are often unaware of when they are thirsty. Sometimes using a water fountain will entice them to drink more. We all know how cats tend to shun their water bowls for the few drips dangling from our fawcetts.
Cat lovers will also want to give their furry friends quality pet food. You wouldn’t settle for anything less for your human children. You can even get a cookbook for cats so they can make their own. Of course, felines appreciate treats. Give them a treat gift hamper for their birthday.
Cat Candle
Special gifts for cat lovers
Scented candles help get rid of pet odours. What better way to do this than with a cat themed candle or candle holder.
Cat lovers will also enjoy a selection of vintage cat jewellery. There are many unique and sparkly choices available.
When their cat isn’t available for cuddling, they can substitute this large cat body pillow.
For relaxing walks in the rain, give them an umbrella decorated with cats. It also has a cat handle!
Cat Wine Bottle Holder
Best gifts for cat lovers
Wine lovers will love this cat bottle holder. Give it with a bottle of wine as a hostess gift. I want this!
Make your own gift set by including a cat wine stopper and a hand painted cat wine glass.
However, if they prefer gin, get a set of cat gin glasses instead.
Cactus Scratching Post
Funny gifts for cat lovers
This whimsical cactus themed scratching post is hilarious.
We all remember the smelly cat song Phoebe sings in Friends. With a smelly cat tote bag, they can keep their sense of humour with them all day.
Another funny cat gift is this colour changing mug. When hot liquid is added, the cat makes rude paw gestures.
Cat butt magnets will also bring some laughter to those who spot these tail ends in the kitchen.
