What is The Perfect Gift for Cats You Love?

Updated on November 5, 2015

Find A Gift for Cats That Cats Just Love and Have Given Their Paws Up Stamp

So just what do you get the pampered cat that has it all? Getting a gift for cats is something more and more of us do.

In pursuit of finding my very particular cat the perfect gift I have done quite a lot so searching and come up with several options that I think any cat will love. I know that lots of other cats already approve.

Cat Gift 1 - The Cozy Armarkat Cat Bed

The Armarkat Cat Bed was definitely made with cats comforts in mind, it is made from foam and covered with the softest low pile plus material. It is easy to clean as it has a removable inner pillow which is reversible. Although it seems thin the bed is finished well and also made well and keeps kitty all cozy warm.

With only a small front opening it keeps your cat warm and free of any drafts.

Remember though to think about your cats sleeping habits. This is great if your cat likes to curl up and snuggle but if it likes lying out lengthwise or stretching out you may need a longer or different shaped bed. Also consider if they like to be in a covered bed as not everyone does.

My cat would love this bed as she likes to be covered over and snuggle in things.

This is a good idea for my current cat but my previous cat would have hated it (she was a bit odd and thought of anything like this as a litter box! Go figure).

I love the color though it does come in a lighter color as well. It is soft and cozy warm and the small hole means it maintains heat. It makes for a great gift for those who want to keep their cat happy and warm.

Kitty Gift 2 - Drinkwell Platinum Pet Fountain

The Drinkwell Platinum Pet Fountain for Fresh Water All The Time - Drinkwell Platinum Pet Fountain 168oz

Where this fountain is better is that the water runs free allowing the cat to drink from it with ease. Cats love it and it stays clean through the filter. Although the water does run all day if you set it between the mid or lower levels you can't really hear it like that. It has a large reservoir for the cats to drink from if they prefer.

This is particularly great if you have a cat that will not drink still water like mine who insists on drinking from the sink. But now she is having difficulty something like this would make the ideal replacement.

These are great as cats are fussy and like fresh clean water rather than stale water that has been there a while. Some cats also enjoy drinking running water.
 

Kitty Gift 3 - Cat Heating Pad

Why I am considering it as a gift for my pampered Puss

After much agonizing one of the things my kitty may get this Christmas is a heating pad. She is old and feels the cold. Some people say cats don't need them and in fact that they aggravate arthritis and others say they are great. She is about to trial my sisters one that she has for her rabbits. If all goes well and she likes it I will get one. I have concerns because they are hard, yet having seen the way some cats sleep from Facebook photos I don't think this will be an issue. But you know cats - they are so fussy!

Why it will Make a Great Gift

Cats love them, without a doubt owner after owner has said as much. They are one of the most commented on and reviewed cat pads going. They are easy to use (you do need a microwave) and non electrical.

Kitty Gift 4 - Kitty Grass

Some Kitty's Just Love Organic Kitty Grass - SmartCat 3844 Kitty?s Garden Edible Grass Planter

Kitty grass is 100% organic and also 100% safe for your kitty.

This is a great gift for either your cat or a family or friends cat. When they eat the grass it doesn't pull the container over or tip it. Cats need to chew on grass so this is a great way fro them to do that after all you don't know what has been on the grass outside.

It is a good idea to get the refills at the same time as the box as this saves money.

Some people do seem to have trouble growing the seeds as a lot of different things can effect growth it is difficult to determine as to the cause being either the seeds or the person or the environment. Some solutions may be to make sure you keep the seeds moist but do not over-soak them. Do not grow in a too cold an area as that will increase your mold chances. Make sure that you keep your box warm by putting it somewhere like a sunny window or a conservatory.

My cat had very little quality grass around one year my sister thought of this a an Xmas gift for her. I thought it was a brilliant idea something a bit different that not everyone will think of. You grow the grass yourself and your cat can chew as cat's need to.
