You’d never forget to get your fur baby a Christmas gift, but not any cat Christmas gift will do. Cats are individuals with distinct personalities and preferences. Some like climbing to the highest heights (let’s just hope that doesn’t include your Christmas tree), while others prefer to cuddle up in the darkest corner of your closet.
To help you pick the purr-fect Christmas gift for your cat this holiday season, we’ve rounded up a range of gift ideas that Chewy cat parents love the most. From cat shelves and cat scratching posts to cat beds and even a cat harness, you’re sure to find one that fits your unique feline friend (or the cat parents on your shopping list).

All 3 Cats Approved
Every single one of our cats love these shelves, we ended up buying another set. They love to sleep and play on them (they think they are hidden and we can’t see them) and they add color to our space!
-
She loves it!
My cat loves these shelves, especially the leaves. Her new favorite thing is to get on the highest one and stare at everyone like she's Mufasa looking down from pride rock. lol I'll definitely get some more for a different room. If you're not very handy, it might take two people to install them but overall it wasn't too difficult.
-
My cats LOVE these!
These are really well constructed and super cute. They both initially pulled/licked on the plant part a bit but they're over that now, probably just a scent thing. I wouldn't recommend these if your cats are really into chewing on fake plants (of course) but I love the look and my fur babies are being good boys.

Big hit with our girls!
Added some fabric to make it a tad cushier but our girls love it! Took the tail off so it would be flat against the wall and because one of our cats can’t play nice with hanging/string toys. Lol Definitely a fun addition for the felines!
-
So cute and cat approved!
This Lama is adorable! Perfect addition to my office. My cats instantly jumped in it and played on it. It's tall enough that is is functional but not so large that it takes up a lot of space.
-
Second time we bought this
We have 4 cats and they all love this! Eventually broke the llama’s neck after 2 years but very sturdy otherwise and we love the aesthetic.

Happy Cats
I purchased this item for my 4 indoor cats and wow, they went crazy over it. They rolled around, ate it, purred over it and yes, left me a mess but I don't care as long as they are happy.
-
Best powdered catnip
This brand of catnip in buds & stems, etc. is even more potent. But this stuff is an easier cleanup, & can be used to refill toys. After all these years with cats, I’ve settled on this brand as the best.
-
WINNNNNNER!!!
Best nip on the market! My two furballs lost their minds. They scream for it when they see the container now. Run and purchase now!!

Nice Litterbox Furniture
I looked for some time for a cover that I could put into my sitting room that fits in with traditional furnishings and antiques. This, while not “fine” furniture looks very acceptable and works beautifully with the Breeze Litter System. I am very pleased with it.
-
LOVE IT
I got the Maple colored one because it matches our end tables we already have. I brought a feral cat in this past summer she was feral she is very sweet to humans just not to other cats. She stays on the main floor of my house mostly the living room I needed something that looked good and this did the trick. So pleased with it.
-
Good enough to buy twice
I purchased one of these I think a year ago and just bought a second since I have two cats. They were super easy to put together. Instructions were great. I love the fact that I can put stuff on top of them. You will need to crouch down to open and clean the liter box, but I prefer that to the top opening boxes just because of the counter space that I would lose. The wood feels pretty solid and the hardware is good quality.
Best for Cats Who Wish They Could Catch a Bird
-
Sir James Arthur Bond's favorite!
My son LOVES a feather toy! He plays HARD so the one I initially bought him after I adopted him last year, broke. He's a BIG boy, 16.5 pounds of pure energy. Lol
-
Bradley, the fierce hunter, is a happy cat
This is a great toy for my cat! The "cat-fishing rod" is long enough that he gets some running around, the "bird" is well-constructed and withstands being caught on occasion. Plus, there is an extra "bird", so the fun can go on and on.
-
Great fun
Rescue from the SPCA, 18 months old, loves to play. Toffee enjoys this feather wand daily. Luckily it comes with two sets of feathers.
Best for Adventurous Cats
-
Great customer service helped buy this
I had called to place my original order. I then called back to change the size on my order. Both customer service reps I spoke to were very helpful. That service makes all the difference to me.
-
Bungee leash is the best
The harness is super easy to put on my wiggly cat and the bungee leash allows him to comfortably dash about without getting choked!
-
Custom fits
I can adjust this harness to fit my cat well without it choking her if she pulls. The rubber slide seems too easy to slide back though, so be aware to only use with leash and in your presence. A cat could still get herself messed up otherwise. The literature that comes with it is excellent.
Best for Cats Who Want Their Own Cat Cave
-
Jazzy Loves It
My cat is almost 11 lbs and has long legs. The medium likely would have been fine but I went with the large and it’s great. I wasn’t able to get the lumps out completely, but I eventually embraced the lumps, rationalizing that it lobs more natural and artistic that way. My cat went into it immediately, even without trying catnip. My only complaint is that it’s hard to get him out of there when I have to give him his medication. (imagine a laugh emoji here).
-
Purrfect! Just as described
My boi loves it. It is good quality and very sturdy. I bought the large bed and he weighs 11 pounds. As you see, I had no problems in getting it to resume its shape (stuffed it full of damp sheets and put it in the dryer for a while.) The bed is also quite attractive, so I may get another one.
-
Comforting Cat Cave
Our new 2-year-old addition to our household loves playing and sleeping in her cave bed. It's her safe place and is working out beautifully.
Best for Cats Who Like to Drink From the Sink
-
Outstanding water fountain
Our cat was playing in his water instead of drinking it. The catit fountain solved the problem. He drinks lots of water now.
-
We are all so in love with this, the cats are drinking more water then before, and before they drank a lot. The only problem is this is not big enough and we need to fill it daily and every morning when we get up, but other then that, the fountain is perfect!! We have been thinking about getting another one, and if you do carry a bigger one we also want to try it on the outside cats since this weather is so hot and they do love the cold water when we change the water for them. Just not sure if this would be good for these hot months or not because of the electric plug in.
-
Great product for a good price
Works awesome dog and cat have started to drink alot more water it's just one of the fountains I like there is a blue ceramic one that has a place for grass id like to get
Best for Mixed Breed Cats
-
Waiting for the results
I use the same type of test for my dog a few years ago. It was very interesting. I need to know if my kitten has Maine coon in him. For my own personal interest. He looks like one. It’s easy to do. Chewy had the best price I found at the time. Now I wait for the results.
-
DNA Test
Great product overall. Took the DNA sample sent it in and received my results within a week via email. Instructions are very simple and easy to follow. Learned a lot more about my cat ancestry,traits, and health. Very interesting information is provided was very happy with the results.
-
DNA panel for kitties
I bought this as a gift for my daughter who has three "rescue" cats. We've used the Wisdom Panel for dogs for our own two rescue "poodle/terrier mixes" It was fascinating to see the breeds of which they were a part. My daughter can't wait for the results for her three girls.
Best for Cats Who Are on Santa's Naughty List
-
Christmas Bandana
I think it will look good on my Chihuahua, because I keep telling him he going to be on the Naughty List.
-
Happy Holidays
The doggies were all happy & kept them on all day. They are thin, however that is perfect for our three chihuahuas. They were all individually wrapped. Very happy with the purchase
-
So Cute and Appropriate
Got this for my new Shiba-Dach puppy. This fits her personality. The scarf is very cute and well made. The size I ordered was too big for Molly now and I had to roll the top which hud some of the printing.
Best for Cats Who Like to Climb
-
Happy w my purchase!
I love that my cats love this cat tree! This cat tree is their new favorite spot in the house. One loves chilling in the nooks and the other loves scratching posts so this was perfect for them!
-
My Climbing Tuxedo loves this cat Tree
They all like it but the Tux loves to bound up the ramp to the highest shelf and survey his domain while cat napping up there. The others like the houses and the lower shelves. Three of them sit on it at a time. Very sturdy. We love it!
-
Cat condo
My cats love it. My 2 siamese cats are indoor cats. We have a inclosed front porch and that's where we have the condo cause cats love being on front porch to look outside.
Best for Cats Who Demand Prompt Dinner Service
-
Really like it
I bought this so my cat can get food in the middle of the night. It works really well. I love the way you can size each scheduled feed differently, the log showing it worked and being able to manual feed from the app in case he wakes me up at 2 am to be fed. The only minor issue is he doesn't eat it all because of the depth of the bowl. He's part Maine coon with whisker fatigue and isn't the type to use his paw. I'll be replacing it with something more shallow as soon as I can find it.
-
Smart feeder
This feeder has a app so you can feed your cat remotely, which is really convenient. I do recommend this product!
-
Solved my piggy cat problems
My chunky cat would always wait by her food bowl and scream at me until I put some more dry food in. I ended up getting two of these feeders to help limit the amount of dry food she can eat as well as still feeding my other cat plenty. They no longer scream and they took to it easily. They were easy to set up and the app is great. Can’t recommend enough.
Best for Cats Who Like to Chase
-
Our Siamese Cat Loves the Butterfly Cat Tracks Cat Toy
Our cat Cleo really likes this toy and frequently bats the balls in a circle on all three levels. This is a really good addition to her toy collection and it is getting a lot of attention.
-
Mr. Pickles approved
My cat is picky about his toys, but he loves this! He plays with this at least once a day. Great purchase and would recommend!
-
Cat Tracks
My girls absolutely love this toy They lay on both sides of it and bat the ball back-and-forth to each other
-
Love this!
Best purchase I’ve made in a long time! Worth every penny! Very simple to set up and the app lets me know when it’s full and needs emptied.
-
Litter Robot 4
This is a real game changer well worth the price. With two indoor only cats I was cleaning our litter box 4-5 times a day. The dust going up my nose was starting to bother me. Now I only have to remember to empty the bin once a week. Love this thing so far...
-
Life changing
Love the new litter robot 4. I’m using so much less litter. Also the clumping litter is much lighter to handle. No scooping required. The money I’ve saved on litter is definitely helping to offset the cost of the robot. It’s made in the USA so worth the labor cost for the quality engineering. Great product.
Best for Cats Who Like to Play Hide-and-Seek
-
TRI Cat Tunnel
All three of my cats wrnt nuts iver this and still play with/it darting in and out! Showed my Sister how much my cats love it and she is waiting for more to come in as they are now out of stock. One of my best, inexpensive cat tow purchases. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS!
-
Foldable play tri tunnel
Our cat has used this a lot. She enjoys hiding and playing in it. We pack this when we travel with her - easy to fold up
-
So much fun!
I bought this section along with a blue section to attach to it. My two boys have never had so much fun! They have dozens of toys, but they love this tunnel soooo much! They run, chase, and pounce on each other. It was a low cost investment for both pieces. They play in it (and through it) multiple times daily. I'm so happy for them!
Best for Cats Who Walk the Catwalk
-
So beautiful I wish I had one for myself!
I couldn’t resist buying this for our prissy dink schnauzer poodle mix who LOVES her dresses from chewy! We bought a large for her, a medium sized doodle mix, abt 33 lbs, lean build, with a deep chest. It worked well, maybe slightly big but at least is not tight. We call it her formal tweed. It’s very sophisticated, for when she’s feeling fancy. Always great products and service from Frisco and Chewy! THANKS!!
-
Perfect fit!
I've ordered for my sister's cat for the holidays and Im very pleased by the results! It fits her perfectly and it compliments her fur color.
-
Great Quality!
I was pleasantly surprised by the high quality of this dress that even included tulle to fluff up the skirt a tad. The only disappoint is that I wished these dresses had leash holes (so my mom was able to use her sewing machine to add them in). I ordered a XL for my petite 40 lb dog and a XXL for my barrel-chested 50 lb dog. The neck hole on the XXL was pretty big, but I’m really happy that these dresses fit both of my dogs well and we were able to use them for our wedding.
Best for Messy Eater Cats
-
Cute matching set
This set is great if you are looking for a cute matching set with a tray to keep food from getting everywhere. My cats are messy eaters but the tray keeps the food where it should be. The bowls have silicone rings at the bottom which are removable for easy cleaning. The bowls are designed for easy comfort for cats to reach their food without straining their necks or whisker fatigue. It's worth every penny purchasing this set.
-
stable dishes
My cat is elderly and has a thyroid disorder. She will use this bowl. Before she was only drinking out of a glass that I had to hold so it would not spill. So far she has not been able to tip this water dish over. The whole set is attractive and I think is worth the price.
-
Feeding bowls
Expensive but outstanding quality. Easy to clean. Comes with a ceramic tray to place bowls on. Water bowl has lines to show much kitty drank.
-
Help our kitties
The feral cats don’t want any part of humans, but they love to eat so I do my best to keep them happy and fed
-
Turkey flavor
I can not get the turkey flavor Temptations at my local pet store. Found them with Chewy. So happy because they are the only flavor my cats like.
Best for Anxious Cats
-
This works
These plug in really do work. My partner and their cat moved in two months ago and I think this plug in made a big difference in their interactions. The cats started getting along since I started using these.
-
had a 1 y/o cat. got a kitten. They got along but sometimes growled or fought. Got the Feliway, and they are besties! Cleaning each other, cuddling. It's the best! Thank you!
-
Skeptical at first
The cost of this item made me hesitant, but my vet said it was good- we had "twins" 3 year olds when we brought baby sister home, the two females did NOT get along at all; within 30 days the hissing stopped; by 60 they were friendly; 90 days and all 3 share the same bed!

Great gifts!
I bought 3 of these for family members felines and they all loved them. It was great because all 3 family members have multi-cat households so these gift boxes were perfect.
-
So cute!
Such a good buy! I purchased this for a family that recently adopted two kittens. Lots of toys and treats for them to be spoiled with. The Christmas theme is a great touch as well.
-
Great Gift Idea for Pets
This was my first time ordering a goody box for our cat Izzy. I love that it comes with a variety of things in it. It felt so special to give her this on Christmas morning. Even included turkey dinner treats! Intend to get her one every year now. We use Chewy all year long so it just felt normal to get her Christmas gift there. Great company!
Best for Escape Artist Cats

Nice little collar
Text is bright enough, and was able to put it on my girl with no issues. She has an RFID chip as well for the RFID feeder, and they both don't bother her any. Would buy again if needed. Having the cats name and my cell phone to text is a great addition.
-
Wears well
Favorite color is blue, but the black text on red collar showed up better in the sample photos! Name and number are highly visible and I will feel better taking him outside for hiking/camping. The bell is persistent, but he didn't seem to mind it (less so than the harness!)
-
Perfect for our newly adopted cat!
We live in northern MI......she will be an indoor cat 24/7......LOTS of wildlife here but if she does sneak out we want our name and phone number readily available to anyone that might find her. EASY to put on her.......has not come off even once. The little bell lets us know where she is at all times haha

Great hugs for little dogs
I had to get new ones as the old ones began to stink after our little yorkie, Bowser got sick. He loves these huts they are his little safe haven.

Huge hit!
I bought this for my elderly cat and even ordered a second one. It’s easily washable and holds up really well.
Best for Long-Haired Cats
-
Back and forth is the key
This works GREAT to remove cat hair from our duvet cover! At first I was "rolling" it (like the directions said) and was only rolling in one direction. That didn't work. I then tried rolling forward, back to me, then forward again and it was like magic! I am very happy with it.
-
Great for clothing
We have two golden retrievers and got tired of the wasteful sticky rollers with tear off sheets. This roller works great for getting their hair off our clothes. TIP: don’t try to replicate the motion used on furniture. Use it delicately on your clothes, brushing in one direction only.
-
Cleans up hair, from 3 fur balls.
My 4 year old grandangle, loves to help out with his MA. He goes around and rows is, opens up and is amazed how much hair. I get help and he has fun!!!!
Best for Short-Haired Shedders
-
Shiny
We have 2 cats and their coats are so shiny and lush after using this brush a few times. It's definitely more comfortable for them than other brushes we have used. I'd recommend this product to any cat owner.
-
BUY IT NOW!
This tool is AMAZING! It blew my mind how much fur came off of both cats. One our cats has very short hair and not much would come off with our other brush. This one takes off a bunch off of him and also made me realize that he has dandruff under his fur. 100% best brush and totally worth the price! You will need to use your hand to remove the fur off of their bodies after brushing but that’s with many brushes. LOVE IT! They love it too!
-
Cat Deshadding comb
I love it so do both of my cats. It really takes care of the under coat. I highly recommend this tool.

This is encouraging self play. Even for my 13 year old. He throws it in the air, kicks it... very entertaining! Just love seeing him have fun like that! Have to get a few more because he'll destroy it soon!

Fun for the family
Everyone in the house enjoyed this toy. The cat, the dog, the kids. I think the feathers were the icing on the cake

No more smelly cat litter
I wish I would have known about this Genie sooner! I love it!! I have 3 cats and the cat litter clean up was horrible, messy, and stinky. Now I do not mind cleaning the litter box once a day and there is no residual smell from the Genie. No one talks about how bad the smell is anymore and I save money on deodorizer and garbage bags! I just love it!
-
Litter genie
I wish I had known about this years ago. Best device when you clean out the kitty litter and easy to usr
-
Life Changing!!
I was hesitant to buy a litter genie because I thought it was just a garbage can. Wrong!! I have a stinky boy and would use individual waste bags and throw them in the bathroom garbage until that was full but it would stink. This product completely smell proof! I wish I got one sooner!

Cats that won't eat canned cat food will eat Greenies
I have three cats one is 10 + and the other two are two years old from a feral mother. The feral cats will not eat any kind of canned food and are very particular about the dry food they don't like anything fancy or expensive. They do love their Greenies the only treat I can get them to eat.
Best for the Cat Who Likes to Window Shop

Great Product
Cats Love it, I did drill holes into the window sill and mounted this with screws. Very sturdy and the cats love it!
-
Finicky 17 year old actually uses it!
My old lady generally ignores the things I buy for her but this has actually been a hit. Easy to install and surprisingly sturdy
-
Super Easy to Install
Fit perfectly in the windowsill with no screws needed although they were supplied as a backup. Cat sits in it daily and it is secure, never moving even when he jumps at birds.
Best for the Cat Who's Going Places
-
I love this so much! AND our cat (11 lbs. and lanky- plenty of room for him) likes it, too. I got him used to it by leaving it out with the mesh part rolled up so he could sit in it whenever he wants, and now he can come on walks with us when the weather is nice! I like that it opens from the front and the top, and with the straps, you can buckle it into the car if needed.
-
Great
I order this backpack cat carrier for to take my cat on hikes as he is walking on leash. It happened that Happy got a photoshoot in NY and we needed a good, sturdy and safe way to take him there. It was a great choice, Happy is a 14 lbs cat and was able to fit into this bag comfortably. He was able to lay both ways bc the bag can be placed on the longer side to give the cat more room to lay down. I love about this carrier that it has extra buckles over the chest for the person to carry easier a heavier cargo (cat). The only one thing i would mention that where the zippers buckle there is no option for to close the buckles so i had to use...
-
10/10 recommend this backpack!!
I have tried several soft-sides carriers and backpacks for my kitty and the downside they all have in common is lack of comfortability. During walks, he was always getting up and moving around the carrier trying to find positions to get comfortable. Instead of looking through the windows/peepholes, he preferred to shy away and hide his face in a corner. I ended up with many red marks on my shoulders carrying him long distances in the city. My kitty and I are IN LOVE with this backpack. He is so happy and confident in it! While he used to move every couple of minutes, he now stays put the entire time, laying down comfortably and enjoying the...

THE WARM FUZZY FEELING KNOWING MY AUTO-SHIP ORDER COMES AND IS PERFECT!
I am a senior with several furbabies I love dearly. Given these are actually my "service-animals" as well as my pets--I take very seriously their care and their well-being (including their being "happy and have full-tummies") every day. THE CATNIP MOUSE TOYS really made them happy and busy in these very hot summer days when everyone is close to the airconditioner--NOT OUT HUNTING! (They are in-door companions anyways.) They need stimulation and play-time just as much as I and my spouse need for a BALANCED body mind and spirit in these troubled times we are in. Thank you and your tireless teams "behind the scenes" who make all of this so easy...

My cat loves them
These little mice are great. My cat plays pretty roughly with them, and so far, they are holding up well.
