gift wrap paper

The Finishing Touch: Kitty Cat Gift Wrap Paper

The last step of choosing a great gift is to wrap it in something equally great. In this case, you’ll want something fun and feline, but you won’t want it to be covered in birthday hats or mistletoe.

That will limit its usage to only certain times of year. Instead, buy an all-occasions cat wrapping paper like this one, and you can use it for every special day that comes your way!

How to Choose Great Presents for Cat People

There’s an art to buying a good gift, so before you fill your cart with random things, take some time to really think about what you’re purchasing. You want the cat lover in your life to be purring with satisfaction by the time you’re done! Here are just a few suggestions for making it happen.

Be Careful With Edible or Interactive Gifts

If your gift is going to be used, worn, eaten or rubbed against by the cat, you’ll need to be extra careful with things like allergies. Cats can be just as sensitive as humans, so take the same precautions as you would when buying a present for a person whose allergies and sensitivities are unknown to you. When in doubt, just ask the owners. Cat people are usually more than happy to talk about their fur babies, and if you phrase your questions correctly, they won’t even be suspicious!

Buy the Right Breed

Just like you wouldn’t buy a dalmatian gift for someone who owns a corgi, you shouldn’t buy a Bengal gift for a cat lover who’s obsessed with Scottish folds. If you’re buying presents for the cat itself, you should also consider whether or not it’ll be suitable for their age, breed, health, history and fur type. For example, brushes for short-haired tabbies might not be the best choice for long-haired Persians. You should probably do some research into different cat breeds before buying your gift.

Keep It Practical

If you’re shopping for a well-known cat lover, they probably get cat-themed presents every single year. You can distinguish yours from the rest by making it practical. For example, if they already have a cupboard full of coffee mugs, they probably don’t need another one. If they don’t carry keys, they won’t have any use for a key chain. Keep these things in mind as you look for a gift that’s fun, memorable and pragmatic at the same time. Try not to add to the clutter in their home just because you find something with a cute cat on it.

Conclusion
