Hilarious Gift Idea for Cat Lovers: Snarky Stemless Glasses (4 in the Set)

By

While these beautiful and hilarious cat lovers glasses are, technically, wine glasses, that’s not remotely what I think of them as. As someone who doesn’t drink, grape juice (which I love, by the way) is as close as I get to wine.

In fact, I drink grape juice every single night and even call it my “evening wine.” Now I’ve found the perfect wine glasses for my “evening wine.”

Yes, I’m a bit of an odd bird, what gave me away??? 

Cat Lovers Glasses Description

  • These funny wine glasses are a great gift for anyone who loves their feline friend. Perfect for any occasion, they are as much fun to give as they are to receive!
  • An affordable way to gift 4 individual wine glasses or offer party favors when hosting wine parties. Give a unique, memorable present to 4 special people that will last for years to come.
  • Printed with premium, organic ink that is dishwasher safe.
  • Made to last for years, the vivid white print won’t chip or fade after being washed in the dishwasher.
  • Look for USA made. This funny stemless glassware is proudly made, printed and packaged in the USA and features a chip-resistant edge, generous 15 oz bowl size and sturdy base.
  • Each glass is carefully packed in a sturdy, white gift box to ensure safe delivery to its destination.

See cat lovers glasses for more information. How cute are these?!?!

Adorable Lighted Cat Christmas Tree (Wonderful Gift Idea)

By

One of the things I love the most about giving and receiving Christmas decorations as gifts is the fact that most of us don’t buy them for ourselves! I also love the fact (when receiving them) that they’re often given early, so they can be enjoyed throughout the season.

I love and live for early gifts. My inner child never takes a day off.

This beautiful Christmas Cat Tree Figurine is actually a gift I will be giving myself this Christmas. It’s too cute not to.

  • Tree is decorated with colorful, hand-painted ornaments, sparkling glitter details, color-changing balls and festive felines
  • Perfect on a mantel, shelf, or as part of a centerpiece display
  • Requires 2 AA batteries (sold separately)
  • Made from resin, measures 9 1/2″H

See Christmas Cat Tree Figurine for more information!

One of the Best Quotes About Cats I’ve Ever Read

By

 

 

Queen Fatima

Queen Fatima

“Anyone who claims that a cat cannot give a dirty look has either never kept a cat or is singularly unobservant.” – Maurice Burton

I love this quote – it is so TRUE! The adorable little girl pictured above was “Queen Fatima,” one of the many, many feral cats I’ve loved and cared for over the years. Many of these ferals, like Queen Fatima, become part of the family and are loved and spoiled like any house cat has ever been. Fatima was no exception.

I loved that girl to pieces!

In the picture here, she was annoyed with one of her brothers (Markie). I happened to catch her mid-glare and the picture fits with this quote like a glove!

Christmas 2019 Gift Guide for Cats and Cat Lovers (It’s That Time Again!)

Christmas Gift Guide for Cats and Cat Lovers

I have a confession to make – I stay in the Christmas spirit year-round. Yep, I’m THAT person… talking about Christmas cookies, decorations, and gift ideas in the middle of July. I’ve always been this way and, trust me, it’s too late to change!

I’m launching the 2019 Christmas Gift Guide for Cats and Cat Lovers this week and will be adding to the collection hot and heavy – so be sure to check back often. You can get to the gift guide by clicking on the beautiful smoky gray cat in his festive Christmas outfit! You can see him on the right of the blog as well as above.

I’ll be adding gift ideas for cats as well as for those of us who love them so much we can’t even think clearly. I’m going to find the cutest, coolest, most original things imaginable and tell you (and your cats) all about them.

Let’s have fun with this!

Cat Tunnels: Endless and Exciting Fun for Cats!

By


All good cat parents know just how important it is to provide plenty of fun and excitement for their “babies.” Cat boredom is a very real and very sad reality. A healthy and happy cat is one who doesn’t have a boring day in his or her life!

Naturally this means making sure our cats have interesting toys, furniture of their own, and different opportunities to explore and play.

Cat tunnels aren’t just fun for cats, they’re CRAZY fun for cats. The 3-Way Leopard Print Cat Tunnel pictured above is available in the leopard print as well as a variety of other patterns/colors.  Floral and giraffe print are just a few of the others.

 

A Few Tips for Providing Exciting Fun for Your Cat:

  • Rotate your cat’s toys (keeping their absolute favorite toy available at all times, however!). Tuck some away and bring out new ones – this keeps your cat interested and excited. It also helps the toys last longer.
  • Buy some catnip spray to add a little extra fun to your cat’s toys. Catnip Spray is also great when introducing your cat to a new bed, cat tree, or scratching post.
  • Always, always, always keep safety in the front of your mind. Check and double-check all cat toys to make sure there are not parts that can get stuck in your cat’s throat. Also, keep in mind that gift wrapping ribbon is a huge chocking hazard.
  • Never underestimate a good old-fashioned cardboard box. My cats often enjoy the box their toys or furniture arrive in as much as the gift, itself. Fortunately, the toys and furniture last longer… they look a lot better too!

Adorable Gift Idea for Cat Lovers – Cat Storage Basket

By

We cat lovers love to surround ourselves, not only with the real thing (and as many of those as possible!), but with cat decorations as well. It makes us smile and makes our cats feel like the stars of the show we all know they are. I just found this adorable Cat Fruit Bowl on Amazon and am pretty much in love with it.

I’ve been looking for something cute to store bags of cat treats in and this is absolutely perfect. It’d also be a perfect place for cats to put their toys when they aren’t playing with them.

Okay, now I’m being delusional. Cats never clean up after themselves.

See  Cat Fruit Bowl for a closer look. This is a real beauty.

Gorgeous Gray Cat Bed (LOVE THIS!)

By

I have recently become infatuated with the color gray (grey.. whichever spelling you prefer!). There’s just something kind of “ritzy” and sophisticated about it. Furniture, walls, towels,dishes… you name it, I suddenly want it to be gray!

So you can imagine my goggle-eyed reaction when I saw this handsome Gray and White Cat Bed/House on Amazon earlier. I had one cat in my lap and one on my computer desk and I told them both, “This one’s going into the cart!”

They acted like they cared, but since it didn’t involve tuna, their reaction was very low-key.

Description

  • Cozy nap pad and private cat lair in one – and it sets up in seconds!
  • Fabric side walls create a sturdy perch for your cat, yet fold flat for storage
  • A cushy polyester pillow and a fleece base mat are removable and washing machine safe
  • Easy to assemble, easy to stow, and designed to perfectly stack in sets of two
  • Size: 16.5 W x 16.5 L x 19.25 H. Include 1 cube, 1 top cushion, and 1 fur fleece mat.

Cat Tree Haven: Great Gift Idea that Might Save Your Christmas Tree

By

One of our cats recently had kittens so, needless to say, we’re already thinking about how “interesting” Christmas will be this year. The gifts, bows, gift tags, ornaments, candy canes, and shiny decorations throughout the house are going to be fascinating enough for these little balls of energy, but I have a feeling the Christmas tree might prove to be a nightmare.

How do you keep a tree standing when three little toddlers with fur are intent on bringing it down?!

When I saw this amazing Cat Haven Condo on Amazon earlier, I was struck with an idea… diversion! I mean it often works for children who walk on two legs, why not children who walk… make that RUN… on four?!

  • Cat condo designed for cats up to 32 pounds in weight. Easy to assemble cat furniture, less than 15 minutes, no tools required.
  • Cat tree house intended for indoor use, fits great in any room.
  • Cat tower perfect for jumping, scratching, climbing, and relaxing.
  • Made from pressed wood, carpet and artificial leaves, great for cats’ innate instinct of hiding within nature. Made in USA and Imported.
  • Square base, 24 inches covered with artificial turf and 3 carpeted perches 22, 22 and 18 inches in diameter.

See Cat Haven Condo for a closer look (as well as adorable shots of cats enjoying their haven).
