1. New Cat Carrier
Red Cozy Comfort Carrier from Cat-in-the-Bag – From $39.95
Do you know someone who’s still using a hard-sided carrier that panics their cat every time they have to visit the vet or travel? Gift them with the perfect solution! A Cozy Comfort Carrier is a soft pet carrier for cats with a head-out design and a roomy interior that holds onto the cat without restricting their movement. The trauma-free design even has ports to provide easy access for paws during grooming, as well as a zippered bottom that allows the vet to examine the cat without needing to remove them from the carrier!
2. Custom Cat Pillow
One Christmas gift idea for a cat lover who has it all is a customized cat pillow. You can provide your friends with a personalized piece that elevates their home decor while showcasing their furry companion. All you have to do is submit a photo of the cat and these companies will do the rest. Some can photoshop the cat’s face onto an army general’s body while others will turn the cat into an illustration! You can buy just the pillowcase or get a set of cases and pillows together.
3. Cat Pajamas
One of the best cat gifts for Christmas is cat-themed pajamas. During the holiday season, people love lounging around in comfy clothing and staying cozy at home. This Christmas gift idea for cat lovers puts their cat front and center! You can find pajamas that feature their specific breed of cat or customize a pair with a photo of their actual kitty.
4. Cat Puzzles
Those who love puzzles as much as they love cats will definitely appreciate a puzzle or Lego set featuring some sweet kitties. And when they complete the puzzle, you can glue it on a board to frame it!
Holiday Presents For Cats
Now that the humans are taken care of, it’s time to focus on the top Christmas gift ideas for cats! Check out some of our picks for the best cat gifts for Christmas whether you have one kitty or a whole brood.
1. Silvervine
If your cat has never been interested in catnip, there’s an alternative you might not have considered! Silvervine is a leafy plant native to China, Korea, and Japan with tons of great benefits for cats. As an environmental enrichment tool, silvervine encourages play behavior to stave off obesity. Silvervine sticks can also help keep your cat’s teeth in top shape.
2. Collars or ID Tags
Whether your cat is an indoor lounger or an outdoor adventurer, getting them an ID tag for their collar can keep them safe. It’s a great Christmas gift idea for cats because it provides your name and contact information in case your cat gets lost in the great outdoors.
3. Interactive Toys…A Box
You might be tempted to splurge on Christmas gift ideas for cats, like fancy interactive toys or cardboard castles, but we all know that your cat will likely be more excited about the box it came in than the toy itself. This holiday, treat yourself to something new and save the boxes for your cats to play with!
Boxes are among the best cat gifts for Christmas because they provide cats with feelings of comfort and safety. More importantly, having an empty box with a little silvervine inside can serve as a deterrent when your cat gets a little too interested in the Christmas tree!
