Gift Ideas for Cat Lovers: The Purrfect Presents for Your Furry Friend
If you’re anything like us, you pounce at any opportunity to spoil your feline family member with gifts. But what types of cat toys do felines even like? At Sacramento Cat Hospital, we know a thing or two about making cats purr with satisfaction. We’ve rounded up our favorite cat gifts to give your furry friend this holiday season.
Cat Gifts for the Holidays
Cats are smart, savvy pets, and sometimes, they get bored. And bored cats might wander into places they shouldn’t. That’s why one of the best cat presents is an interactive toy that keeps your cat mentally stimulated. Puzzle feeders are always a fun choice for cats, especially if you hide tasty catnip-flavored treats inside. There are all sorts of great puzzle feeders out there with different levels of difficulty.
If your kitty needs lots of activity to stay happy, consider a feather wand, laser pointer, or electronic mouse that zips around the house. Your feline’s hunting instincts are strong, and these toys will bring that side of your cat out in full force.
Which means plenty of exercise for her!
Finally, if you feel like you need a break from play sometimes, look for electronic or automatic cat toys, like the zippity-zapping mouse. These can entertain Kitty while you’re busy working, cooking, or cleaning.
Cozy Comfort Items
As winter sets in, cozy cat beds or heated blankets make perfect cat holiday gifts. Cats are known for seeking out warm, soft places to nap, and a plush bed or blanket will quickly become his favorite resting spot. You can also consider a heated cat pad, which provides a warm place to curl up during the cold months.
For a gift that’s both fun and functional, a stylish cat tree or perch gives your cat a place to climb, scratch, and relax. What’s better when you’re a cat? A well-designed cat tree will give your feline friend multiple levels to explore—and make climbing your furniture less interesting.
Cat Holiday Essentials
Give your cat the gift of holiday cheer with festive treats or a holiday-themed collar or bandana. Personalized food bowls, engraved ID tags, or custom-made cat beds can also make thoughtful yet practical cat presents.
For a touch of luxury for both you and your cat, consider gifting your cat a fountain-style water bowl that keeps her water fresh. If you really want to get fancy, spring for an automated litter box that cleans itself and makes your life a whole lot easier.
Finally, give your kitty the gift of health with a wellness checkup at a certified Cat Friendly Practice like Sacramento Cat Hospital. Our team can help resolve any aches and pains your cat is struggling with, all while giving your kitty the gentlest care. From dental cleanings to pain management, we can do it all.
