There are so many sweet moments you share with your kitty: obsessing over their toe beans; finding the perfect spot to scratch; waking up to a head bunt and morning snuggles. And like most cat moms, you love pampering your fur baby. You have all the essentials, but what about a few gifts to truly pamper your pet? We’ve compiled a list of our favorite gifts and accessories to help you spoil your fur baby.
A Unique Cat Carrier
Visits to the vet: a dreaded but necessary event for any cat mom. Regular check-ups are crucial for keeping your fur baby healthy and happy, but that doesn’t make the visits any less stressful. Trying to place your kitty in a traditional crate only adds to the stress. Most cats resist this enclosed space and may even hurt their claws trying to escape.
Fortunately, there are cat carrier alternatives to enclosed crates, such as over-the-shoulder bags designed specifically for keeping your fur baby secure and close. Cat carrier bags can be secured with a seat belt in the car, allowing you to keep your kitty in the soothing carrier throughout the car ride and vet visit.
Spa-Day Worthy Wellness Products

If you incorporate natural, organic products into your lifestyle, you probably want the same for your favorite four-legged friend. Today, there are countless pet wellness products to help heal, soothe, or calm your kitty.
Ozone-infused oils and shampoos are natural options for skin and wound care. Unlike some conventional treatments, ozonated products are non-toxic. You won’t need an emergency visit to the vet if your curious kitty licks the treated area.
CBD products are another emerging treatment option for pets. CBD oil may help reduce anxiety, pain, seizures, and nausea in cats, but research is limited. Always consult your cat’s veterinarian before choosing the best CBD for your pet or other alternative treatments.
A Window Perch for the Best View in the House
It may be difficult to imagine your little furball as a savvy predator, but all cats have a natural predatory instinct. A high, safe spot to perch is an excellent way for your kitty to tap into his natural intuition.
A cat window perch can turn any window in your home into a cozy front-row seat to the outside world. Your kitty will love watching (and even chirping at) birds, squirrels, and other animals right outside the window. Talk about high-def cat TV!
Perches are purposefully designed for easy installation, with popular designs using suction cups or latchable frames. Another perk: perches come in various unique styles, so you shouldn’t have a problem matching one to your home’s aesthetic.
A Cozy Heating Pad

As a seasoned cat mom, you know your kitty loves any warm spot—whether it’s a patch of sunlight in your living room, your lap, or a full laundry hamper. Self-warming heating pads create a luxurious, cozy surface by reflecting cats’ body heat back at them. The pad uses an internal thermal sheet to help your kitty retain heat, unlike electric heating pads. When using a self-warming heating pad, there’s no need for batteries, cords, or worrying if your kitty is overheated.
Place the self-warming heating pad in your kitty’s favorite spot for hours of curled-up and comfortable sleep.
Bonus Gift for Mom: Reusable Pet Hair Rollers
Yes, cat moms need a gift for themselves, too. While snuggles with your four-legged friend are one of the best parts of your day, this usually leaves your clothes and furniture covered in a layer of cat hair. If you’re tired of going through endless sticky sheets on your lint roller, consider a reusable hair remover.
Reusable rollers and brushes allow you to remove pesky hair from your clothes and other surfaces without constantly replacing roller sheets. Some rollers are designed for larger surface areas, making it easier, and usually more effective, than vacuuming hair off furniture and small rugs.
There’s nothing quite like the special bond between you and your kitty that makes it so easy to pamper them with treats and gifts. Have fun picking out a new gift—or two—to keep your cat cozy, healthy, and happy. We know your kitty will purr with thanks!
