10 Gifts Your Cat-Obsessed Friends and Family Can’t Live Without
For your friend whose cat infatuation is certifiable.
Ever since cats took over the internet, being a “crazy cat person” has become a badge of honor. Instead of being seen as aloof weirdos, cat people are now considered funny, trendy and lovable weirdos. And with this acceptance has come an onslaught of cat-themed products. Here, we’ve hand-picked our favorite gifts for your feline-minded friends and family.
Laptop Cat Scratching Pad
No matter how much your friend loves her cat, there is no way that she loves the way it tears up her furniture. So consider this scratch pad that looks like a laptop—it will save your friend’s sofa and give her lots of lulz as she pretends her cat is watching Maru videos.
Pusheen Your Buttons Hat
Every cat lover knows and loves Pusheen, the animated kawaii kitten queen of the internet. And now your friend can show her allegiance to the chubby tabby with this adorable beanie. Shades of grey keep the kitchy cap understated, while the cuff will ensure ears stay extra cozy.
Kisa Cat Candle
Not to make generalizations about cat people, but they tend to be a little bit artsier…a little bit darker…a little bit—dare we say—creepier. This cat candle really hits all of those notes. It starts as a gothic work of geometric art, then melts down to reveal an aluminum cat skeleton inside.
Cat LED Lamp
Okay, so if you liked the geometric element of the above candle but you weren’t so into the eerily emerging skeleton, here’s an alternative: a contemporary cat lamp made with LED lights (that last 50,000 hours!) that can sit oh-so-prettily on her bedside bureau.
A Lot of Cats Tee
If your friend is of the philosophy “the more cats, the better,” we’ve got good news for you: this t-shirt is crammed with so many cats, they’re falling off the seams. The dynamic black and white design makes for an awesome statement piece on any casual Caturday.
Lovecats Ring
There are the cat people that will wear the shirt above, and then there are the cat people who prefer to keep their feline infatuation a little bit subtler. For them, we suggest this Lovecats Ring. Straight on, it looks like a gold band, but from the side, two little kitty ears shine bright.
Kitten Keepy Ring Dish
Whether or not your friend has a cat ring, she can still use this supercute cat-shaped ring dish. Made from white earthenware and gold leaf, the petite plate can stash jewelry or trinkets—and it’s even food-safe if she prefers to use it for some Fancy Feast for her furry friend.
Cat Wine Markers (Set of 6)
Is there anything better than curling up with a warm cat and a glass of wine? Of course: curling up with a warm cat and a bottle of wine and five friends! These cat wine markers will make sure you stay cat savvy without confusing your glasses of Cab Sauvvy. (See what we did there?)
Sphinx Wine and Bottle Opener
If you’re looking for a more sophisticated way to link your love of cats and alcohol, we recommend this contemporary 14 Karat gold cat wine and bottle opener. It’s ergonomic for effortless cork extraction, and Sphinx-shaped for effortless entry into the mystic world!
Petcube Camera with Built-In Laser Toy
Are you ever at lunch with your friend and she sighs wistfully, wondering what her cat is doing at that very moment? This Petcube Camera provides live video access 24/7, two-way audio, and even has a built-in laser toy so that she can play with her best feline friend from across the globe. It’s by far the most generous gift on this list, but can you really put a price on constant communication with a cat?
