Whether your cat lover treasures a few special pieces or covers his/her home in cat themed decor, you can find an appropriate gift to fit any need or season.

Here I've listed a variety of ideas with prices from under a dollar on up, so there should be an option for any budget, any fancy.


Charming boxes make a nice home for small pieces of jewelry, loose change. They can be kitchy or artsy, even match the favorite feline of the recipient!

A nice piece of jewelry with a cat shape or theme would make a lovely stand alone gift or a surprise for inside a trinket box.

A book of touching or funny stories, a silly twist on a traditional game featuring cats, or a small bag of treats for your cat lovers pet are all fantastic ideas.


Collectibles are triple value gifts. They have their collectible value, their value as cat memorabilia, and the affection inherent in their being given as a gift.

They need not be antique, rare or highly valuable in order to be considered good material for a gift. Sometimes you can negotiate an excellent deal on a unique, one of a kind find. 


Art has the benefit of being tasteful and beautiful. When it features beloved felines, this adds to the value.

Posters may come framed or unframed. Frames can be purchased separately if you prefer to give a protected piece.

Artworks are a way to give an original piece, something not everyone else may have or share. You may consider the type of art your cat lover prefers or help them open to a new style. If their walls are full, an edition of collected works of art with cats as inspiration would make a wonderful choice.


Books are a great gift. They say so much. They can bring laughter, trigger memories, share heartful emotion. They can easily be passed along or passed down for sharing. They can be displayed or fill a shelf for rainy day entertainment.

Whether the one you choose is informational, filled with glossy photos, or a collection of meaningful stories, if it is constructed around the world of cats, it is sure to be appreciated. Include a short note in the cover to personalize the sentiment.



We need many things to make a house a home. If your recipient loves cats, why not help to fill their house with everyday items which feature the animals so special to their hearts?

Small knickknacks fill empty space. A cat mug can become a favorite for morning coffee or to keep at work. Small signs and pictures adorn the walls with feline friends.

Wrapping

When it comes to wrapping that special gift, consider a kitty themed wrapping paper. Cats love bags and boxes, so if you use one to wrap, their special pet may get a thrill as well. Avoid any hanging items that may cause curious beasts to swat or swallow them.
