27 Gifts for Cat Lovers (and Their Feline Friends)

Socks, while a wonderfully practical gift to give, aren’t exactly fun or exciting to unwrap. But these vibrant kitty-print socks, paired with a retro-inspired cracker you pull open with a bang, take the experience to a whole other level of joy.

PureWow pets editor, Sarah Ashley, calls this litterbox “life changing” for multiple reasons.

The pink and red are divided by a loopy “Meow” that looks like a wavy design element at first glance, allowing your BFF to showcase her cat lady vibes without being too literal. Plus, the cotton-cashmere blend is so superbly soft, she won’t want to take it off ‘til spring.

Cardboard scratching posts can create a ton of loose scraps, but a sisal rope design like this one won’t require daily vacuuming. And while you could gift a plain, beige model with a carpeted base, we think this western-inspired cactus will be a much bigger hit and is sure to make them chuckle every time they pass by.

Cats are notoriously bad at staying well hydrated, but one way to encourage them to drink more is with a flowing fountain.

Another art print option, this minimalist piece in millennial pink is funny and sweet and will go with just about any decor set up.
