CATS are part of the family so when you’re planning you shopping for the upcoming festive season, remember your feline friends and include Christmas presents for cats on your list.

Whether it’s a toy to chase, a new bed, a tasty treat, or a stylish new collar, there’s something purrfect out there for your kitty and they’re sure to love it.

If you’re seeking inspiration for what to buy from Santa Claws for the moggies in your life, then have a look at our seasonal roundup of the best Christmas presents for cats.

Now we know that kitties don’t particularly like wearing collars, but when they see this one in their Christmas stocking they’re bound to make an exception.

This luxurious burgundy leather collar features a green suede interior and a brass bell. There’s also a breakaway clip so you don’t need to worry about Mr Snuggles getting caught on a tree branch.

This red and beige fleece stocking is purrrfect for holding all of their presents so why not hang it on the fireplace alongside those of the rest of the family.

It’s lined in red satin and you can personalise it with kitty’s name (up to 15 letters). It measures 40cm x 25cm approximately.

Full of Christmas Day treats that kitty will love, this selection box includes mini strips of salmon, chicken and duck, as well as chicken and cheese duo bites.

Hopefully this will keep her paws off the turkey!

A luxury faux fur bed for a totally pampered kitty.

The donut shape and deep padding is said to de-stress pets, helping soothe them and making them feel secure. This UK-made bed features removeable covers for easy washing and a wipe-clean waterproof interior.

Bet they can’t wait to get their claws into this cat-cus! This sisal covered scratching post has a hanging ball to swipe at and a pine base with wooden balls to roll.

The cactus design is a different take on the usually utilitarian-looking cat tree, but it still saves your furniture from those claws!

This unusual seagrass bed is sure to make an impression with cool cats.

The cave-like shape will make kitty feel secure and with a comfy cushion inside, she’ll be in her element. A fun design basket that will also fit well with most decors. Purrfect.

Who doesn’t love stretching out the anticipation of Christmas?

This advent calendar will have your cat meowing with joy at the daily treat awaiting him behind each door. Filled with festive salmon nibble and cracking chicken nibbles for a very meowy Christmas!

Kitty will be the best-dressed cat on the block with this fish-shaped name tag.

It’s made from sterling silver and can be personalised with his name or initials and your phone number in case of emergency. If you’re worried about him losing it you can always keep it safe for him and use it as a keyring!

With its various platforms, houses, hammock and climbing ramp, this cat tree will keep even the most curmudgeonly kitty happy for hours.

There’s sisal scratching posts, balls hanging from string, places to sit and watch the world go by, as well as hidey holes to sleep in. It’s covered in a soft plush fabric – sooo comfy for sleeping.

While cats aren’t known for their love of baths, sometimes they just have to grin and bear it, so why not make it the most pleasant experience possible?

This gift set is purrfect for your pampered feline and includes fragrance-free shampoo with aloe vera for sensitive skin, a daily antibacterial eye cleanser, a gently ear cleanser with olive oil and a paw balm that contains organic shea butter – grreat protection for our winter weather!

Who doesn’t love a game at Christmas – and this one will mean your cat is never bored! Watch her face as two cheeky mice pop their heads out of a piece of Swiss cheese.

There’s even a timer you can set so kitty doesn’t get too tired playing with her toy.

Your kitty will look the cat’s pyjamas in this festive harness!

It’s easy fastening, which is a bonus for you and should save you from a few scratches. Fits cats from 3.1 – 5.4kg. In red with soft holly berry trim.

After the excitement of a visit from Santa Claws, the sherpa fleece lining inside this cosy bed is just the place for sleepy kitties to curl up and nap.

The outside is 100% brushed cotton and the inside is made from recycled material. You’ll also be benefitting Battersea Dogs & Cats Home when you buy this gift.

Kittens will feel soothed lying on this fluffy blanket, while the soft teddy, fluffy pompoms and mouse with a bell on his tail, make for a gentle introduction to play time.

Puurfect as a present for your furbaby, or for a friend.

Cats won’t worry about the cold winter weather with this ingenious bed.

Simply hang it over your radiator and see how quickly kitty helps himself to the central heating. The soft sherpa fleece fabric is removeable for easy washing.

Cats can be fussy furbabies to buy for, but generally speaking they love toys. Even older cats will jump at a pretend mouse on a string that you drag across the floor.

Treats and food are always good bets and will feature at the top of many a Christmas list. Felines love their home comforts so beds and soft blankets definitely make it into the hit list of best Christmas presents for cats.

If you’re buying treats or food gifts for your cat then you will know what she likes and doesn’t, and more importantly if she’s allergic to anything. You might not know this about a friend’s cat, so it’s always worth checking before buying edible gifts.

Make sure the toys you buy are designed to be used by cats, as they will have been safety tested accordingly. Never leave cats unattended with toys, unless the manufacturer stipulates they are okay for use when you’re not there – the Petsafe cheese game in our roundup for example has a ‘play while you’re away’ mode you can set to entertain your cat when you’re out of the house.

As you can see from our round up, there's no shortage of cat Christmas presents on offer this festive season.

We recommend taking a look at Amazon, Argos, and John Lewis for the best selection.
