Your Cat's Favorite Blog!
If you’re, like me, a last minute shopper, you’ll be glad to hear this…. if you order right away, this beauty can arrive by Christmas – as of right now (Dec. 21, 2018), Amazon says it’ll arrive by Christmas.
See Self-Warming Cat Sleeping Bag for more information.
The PetFusion 3-Sided Vertical Cat Scratcher and Post pictured here looks a lot like the one we recently found for them at PetSmart. This one is available on Amazon.

Every diversion helps with toddlers – whether they have fur or not!
The past few Christmases, in fact, we’ve kind of done a “25 Days of Christmas” thing with our cats where we give them a new toy or something extra fun each day to help keep them occupied and the tree standing! Some days it was as simple as a paper bag from the grocery store or an emptied Amazon box.
24 pieces cat toys include a collapsible Cat Tunnel (something our cats are obsessed with), Cat Teaser Wand, Interactive Feather Toy, Fluffy Mouse, Crinkle Balls, Balls with Feathers, etc.

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?!
See Cat Haven Condo for a closer look (as well as adorable shots of cats enjoying their haven).
The Leopard Print “Spoiled” Cat Dish
Features:
While I love everything about this gorgeous dish, my favorite thing is the bacteria-resistant stainless steel. I also love that it’s dishwasher safe.
No pampered cat wants to eat or drink out of a dirty dish!
See Leopard Print “Spoiled” Cat Dish for more information. It’d make a super special Christmas present… just saying.
The dish above would be especially beautiful with the Leopard Print Cat Condo
Well, of course we cat lovers give gifts to our feline babies. If you think about it, we see them more during the year than we do most people in our own family. Theyr’e always there for us, they never criticize what we wear, they think we’re the best cooks on earth, and they make our world light up with just one purr. We love to buy things for them all year, but at Christmas time, it seems even sweeter.
Consider the following great tips and ideas from Cat Age:
Toys and treats: Stuff a stocking with catnip-filled toys and a few healthful treats. Your pet will love digging them out. Choose indestructible toys with no bells, baubles, or strings he can bite off and choke on. If in doubt about a toy’s safety, supervise during playtime.
Warm and snuggly: Wrap a padded plush bed in crinkly paper that kitty can tear into. The paper will entertain him for hours, and the bed will keep him cozy all winter.
Playground accessories: Keep his life interesting with cat climbers, scratchers, tunnels, and laser pointers.
At Prissy’s age, Christmas is just like any other day. As long as she has her food, her extra large pillow bed, plenty of chin scratching, and fresh water – she’s a tiny, purring, ridiculously happy 20 year old cat. Svenn and Bo love when Christmas season first arrives because they love sorting through the garage with me as we find all the santas, snowmen, trees, lights, etc. Truth be told, they aren’t a lot of help, but the company couldn’t be sweeter. Or cuter.
Alexa gets the most excited about Christmas though. Her splint is off her leg now and she’s getting around perfectly well. Every now and then, she’ll favor the leg – but I’m just so thankful my little girl’s back to her normal, enjoyable routines. She has assumed her rightful place in front of me on my computer desk and, somehow, all feels right with the world again.
One of the first things she wanted to do first (after being set free from her doggie kennel cage and splint) was explore the Christmas tree and presents. Last night, my husband and I were watching a few dvds. During the first one, she kept walking around on top of the presents and gift bags – swatting, chewing, and examining. Apparently, the second movie was more to her liking (She’s a Vin Diesel fan.) because she got on the couch beside my husband and watched with us.
In Prissy’s younger days, she would actually climb the Christmas tree, knocking ornaments and bows down along the way. I had to watch that girl 24/7 to make sure she didn’t hurt herself. Fortunately, Alexa (who’s weight would make things especially disasterous) seems content with staying on the ground.
I hope you, your furry babies and the rest of your family are enjoying every single magical second of Christmas! There’s really nothing quite like it.
