Kitty Christmas Shopping Guide for All Pocketbooks

November 21, 2017 By: Summer Samba32 Comments

Kitty Christmas Shopping Guide from Summer

Disclosure: I am an Etsy affiliate, and will get a small commission if you click on the links and make a purchase.

After seeing all the cool kitty items at the cat show, I wanted to put together a really awesome kitty Christmas shopping guide! I wasn’t sure if I should put together gifts anyone could buy, or find more extravagant items for us kitties… so I wound up going to Etsy and picking a little bit of everything. I also picked sellers that will ship their items out to you in three days or less, because I know how important it is to get your gifts in a timely manner.

Gifts $10 and Under

Here are some great stocking stuffers, or if you are a blogger participating in Secret Paws, some awesome gift ideas for the kitty family you were given!

Catnip Joints Cat Toys
Catnip Joints Cat Toys

These hand-rolled catnip joints may be legal, but they are also very potent! There are no fillers, just leaves and buds — premium catnip encased in cotton, your choice of three or five joints. The seller, Stark Raving Cat, also can gift wrap them.

Felt Blossom Cat Toy Balls
Felt Blossom Cat Toy Balls

These are exactly the type of toys that I love to play fetch with! They are around 2″ and hand cut and sewn! I don’t think they need catnip to be super-fun myself, but the folds are perfect for sprinkling in catnip, if you want an extra kick. The seller, Love Lola Designs, has lots of other cool, inexpensive cat toys too.

Eco Friendly Cat Scratcher Wheel
Eco Friendly Cat Scratcher Wheel

This scratcher is fun, eco-friendly, non-toxic and a great value! It’s 8.7″x5.1″, and packs a lot of scratching in a compact size. From Way Basics.

Catnip Sugar Cookie Christmas Cat ToysCatnip Sugar Cookie Christmas Cat Toys
If Santa came down the chimney and found these Christmas cookies and milk, he might never leave! Or at least that would be the case if he were a kitty. These cute, handmade cookies contain 100% USDA certified organic catnip and come from Cleveland Cat Company!

Hand-Knitted Kitty Kickers
Hand-Knitted Kitty Kickers

There are a lot of kitty kicker toys out there, but I wanted something a little different, and found these from Pom Pom Pet Toys. They are handmade and filled with organic catnip. at 9″ long and 2″ wide, they are a good size, and will take a licking (and a kicking!).

Gifts from $20 to $50

Even if you are not wealthy, you may still want to splurge a little on your cat! So I found these cool items that any cat would love.

OTO Brooklyn House for Cats!
OTO Brooklyn House for Cats!

Send your cat on a visit to New York’s famous borough with this cardboard cat playhouse! There’s a French bistro in front, a truck repair garage in the back, plus the G-train. The sellers are Famous OTO who are from… guess! That’s right, NYC!

The Malibu Cat Scratcher Lounge
The Malibu Cat Scratcher Lounge

Let’s hop over to the other coast for this sleek and stylish scratcher from Petshop Garden. Made from dense cardboard, it’s also more durable than other cardboard scratchers, and is built to last. At 26.3″Lx9.5″Wx5.1″H, it’s a good size for most cats.

Ripple Rug Cat Activity Mat
Ripple Rug Cat Activity Mat

Here’s a unique interactive gift for the kitty who has everything. It’s scratchable! It’s got fun play holes! It’s a hiding spot! The top part can be reshaped any way your cat likes for an infinite number of kitty games. Even better, it’s made from recycled water bottles. From Snuggly Cat.

Shep's Green Yellow Lily Cat Cave
Shep’s Green Yellow Lily Cat Cave

Your cat will think it is already spring with this pretty green and yellow cat cave. Made by Wool Dryer Balls, it is big enough to fit an 18-lb. cat, and is 100% wool — thicker and more durable than other cat caves. There are lots of other fun designs too.

Extending Cat Wands - Four Pack
Extending Cat Wands — Four Pack

Do you have a multi-cat family? Give them each their own wand — you get a deal by buying four! They are expandable from 17″ to 27″, and you can switch out the teaser, so they will last a long time. My own personal favorite are these squiggly critters pictured. From Fur Cool Pet Beds (they also have awesome pet beds, of course).

Gifts Over $100

If you really want to give your cat something extra special, here are some presents any kitty will love finding under the Christmas tree.

Cattino and Rattino Combo Scratching SetCattino & Rattino Combo Scratching Set
I’ve always been a fan of the Cattino products, and my human, who has met the Cattino humans, says they are very nice people. This hammock and scratcher combo is lightweight, yet sturdy, and the scratching boards are replaceable. You get a choice of birch or walnut wood, and a variety of hammock colors and patterns. This one takes a little longer to ship out, but I love them, so I had to include it.

Cat Sky Track
Cat Sky Track

This combination of hammock, shelves and scratcher is an awesome wall playground! It’s pre-built with Onyx stain and Charcoal Gray fabric, and comes ready to mount (you will definitely need two strong humans to do this, so keep that in mind!). It’s size in total is 54″x54″ and is 11″ deep. The CatastrophiCreations humans make some really creative and amazing units, and it’s great that they have ready-made ones like the Sky Track, along with made-to-order items.

The Royal Throne Bed
The Royal Throne Bed

This elegant and timeless bed will make any cat feel like royalty (well, if they don’t already feel like royalty, anyhow). This luxury cat bed is 18″x24″, with a cushion that is 12″x18″, with your choice of fabric. It’s made of hardwood moldings with metallic accents, and is just beautiful. From Aristocat Designs.

Luxurious Cloud Perch
Luxurious Cloud Perch

Here’s another one from Aristocat Designs. They had several cat perches, and they all looked amazing, but I thought this one, with its luxury faux fur, would appeal the most to the feline esthetic. Under the fur is a painted wood base, and you can see the brushed beveled metal. Everything about this perch says class and comfort.

Cat Teepee
Cat Teepee

One of the reasons I included this fun teepee is because my human has a friend who got it for her cats — and they love it! It’s 100% handmade of high-quality cotton fabric and each teepee is unique. The seller, Sage N Bones, donates a portion of her sales to pet rescue too!

I hope you liked my picks! Which one was your favorite?
