Cat
lovers come in many different shapes and sizes.
There will be times, unexpectedly, you find out someone you know
is a cat lover. Maybe he or she didn’t seem like the kind of person to have cats. Or you had an image in your head of
what a stereotypical cat lover looks like.
One thing
all cat lovers have in common is that they are also animal lovers.
They seem have a soft spot in their heart for
furry friends, and shows deep compassion for other animals and other living things.
They also feel a connection with their pets, expressing the belief that they can sense what it is feeling.
Some owners form a kind of companionship with their
pets, especially if they are single or unmarried. It’s common for individuals to get a kitten, raise it, become
very attached to it’s companionship, almost as if it is their partner.
However, this isn’t exclusive to cat owners, many people form this strong bond with their
pets.
People who tend to favor cats over dogs often
cite the ease of care for their feline friends. They don’t have to take them out every few hours for a bathroom break.
They can leave on a trip for a few days and it will be just fine when they return. This is providing they leave enough food
and water for the duration of their trip.
Cats are
less needy than dogs. They are independent, and sometimes aloof. Cat lovers find these traits endearing, appreciating
their cat’s dismissive attitude. They also cite cats cleanliness as an added benefit. Most cats take care of their own
fur, and aside from the heavy shedders, owners have little responsibility in that department.
Cat lovers, it seems, truly appreciate the companionship, ease, and humor they
receive from owning a cat.
So it seems when buying
a gift, that cat lovers are people whom should be given special consideration.

When shopping for that special
cat lover in your life, you can’t go wrong buying your friend, family member, co-worker, or significant other an item
that reminds them of their four-footed furry friend!
The following are some great themed gift items you
might consider when shopping for the purrfect gift:
Practical Presents
Who
does not like to receive their favorite food or a tasty treat to celebrate any special occasion? Felines, like their
owners, also appreciate something yummy for snacks between meals or better yet, a case of their favorite flavor of food.
Other practical gifts are those that provide hours of play and entertainment for it and its owner. One such
fun item is a scratching post. You can find scratching posts in many different colors, styles and sizes. Not only
will the cat thank you, but so will the owner’s couch!
More practical items include, jewelry, watches,
handbags, sweaters, books, videos or DVDs, mailboxes, wind chimes, door knockers, door mats or beautiful handmade items like
a fluffy pillow and blanket to share for naps!
Cultural Cats
Throughout
centuries, felines have been worshipped and revered in just as many cultures. Perhaps the most noted in history is the
relationship between them and Egyptians. They were honored as graceful and poised, were often mummified as their human
owners!
As in ancient Egypt, what better way to show love and admiration than owning a pair of earrings,
necklace, or scarf featuring the cat-head goddess Bast? For those who are a little more difficult to shop for,
a personalized themed pin makes a very thoughtful gift!
If that someone
special enjoys Asian art pieces, a scroll decorated with Japanese brushwork kittens makes an alluring gift. If
you’re looking for a gift to make a bolder statement, consider a gift bearing jaguars and ocelots, which are prevalent
in Mayan and Aztec art pieces.
Fluffy Feline Friends
You may find
yourself shopping for a cat lover with limited living space, or who is allergic. Don’t worry because you
can still find an appropriate themed gift!
One very popular gift idea is a soft and cuddly stuffed
replica of the real pet. You can select one from many different colors, shapes and sizes depending on the breed.
Cat-Inspired Houseware
For those that don’t actually own one
but adores them, then themed houseware items are the perfect gift!
Gift items for the bathroom include cat
printed towels, soap dispensers, toothbrush holders, tissue box covers, night lights, and bath mats.
For
other rooms in the home, you can shop from a wide selection of popular three dimensional wall art pieces, clocks, patterned
prints or add a personal touch by framing a favorite photo.
Knowing the gift recipient’s personality
and preferences will help when selecting the purrfect gift. Just keep in mind when you’re shopping that
there are plenty of great cat themed gift options!
