Unique and Imaginative Gifts for Cats & Their Pet People

If you know a special cat and the humans they let care for them (since, as every cat owner knows, the cat is in charge), you will find this page informative, entertaining and fun in addition to finding the Purr-fect gift for any occasion.)

We've created this page to raise money for the ASPCA, Humane society, and TLC animal shelter.

We have two we adopted from the local SPCA and they are amazing companions and great fun. You can see one of our cats, Chibi, in the introduction photo.

All proceeds earned by this hub will be donated to these organizations.

Pets are a great source of joy and can even improve one's health and alleviate stress. Psychologists and medical practitioners tell us that folks who care for pets are generally healthier on measures of emotional, mental, social, and physical health -- but they didn't need to do all those scientific studies to "discover" what Pet lovers already knew.

Cat lovers are indeed a breed apart.

Let Her Know She's The Cat's Pajamas!

The phrase "The Cat's Pajamas" became a popular expression during the Roaring 20s. "Cat" a term used to describe flappers, was combined with the name of something else new to the era -- Pajamas, and was the 1920s equivalent of Cool, Groovy, Phat, Da Bomb, and similar slang expressions since then. In short, it means excellent.

It is also not a coincidence that an English tailor named Katz, shortly before that time, was renowned for making silk pajamas for the rich and royal.

...Cats Will Play

Exercise is healthy activity cats need to maintain strength and help keep them in shape. With the classic and whimsical designs shown here, you can also find cat furniture to suit your décor or your sense of humor, as well as those of your favorite cat person.

Nora the Piano-Playing Cat - You've Got to See it to Believe it!

Nora The Piano Cat: The Sequel - Better than the original!

Features all-new footage and more duets. Better than the original! This is not a trick taught to Nora. She began sitting at the piano at about one-year-old. She's almost four now. She plays only when the mood strikes her, which is usually several time a times a day for short periods. (Copyright 2007/2008 Yow!/Alexander, Nora The Piano Cat, LLC)

The Best Gift of All...

Perhaps the best gift of all you can give a cat-lover is one that is also a gift to yourself and your family: Adopt a cat or kitten from an animal shelter and learn why so many people are so crazy about felines. The following video offers some great advice for the individual or family looking to adopt. After the video, you'll find some books we've found were valuable resources for caring for your new pet.

Adopting a Cat or Kitten (or two)? - Some things you should know

We have personally chosen these books because we think they are the best out of the hundreds available. We've read them all and have two of them on our bookshelves at home for easy reference. We adopted our cats as young kittens nine years ago (brother and sister from the same litter). It was (and is) as reassuring to have information we know we can trust available whenever needed and to help us determine if we should be concerned about a new behavior or not when we should call the veterinarian or similar cat-care professional.
