Gift Ideas for Cat Lovers
If there’s one thing every cat lover has in common, it’s the joy they find in celebrating their favorite feline friends.
Whether you’re shopping for a birthday, holiday, or a just-because surprise, our curated collection of handcrafted cat-inspired gifts is sure to delight. Each piece is made by an independent artist and chosen for its craftsmanship, charm, and quality.
What is a cat lover called?
A true cat lover is often called an ailurophile, a word derived from the Greek ailuros, meaning cat. But you don’t need to know ancient Greek to recognize one. They are the people who light up at every meow, can’t resist sharing cat photos, and adore surrounding themselves with cat-themed treasures.
At The Handmade Showroom in downtown Seattle, we believe the best gifts capture both personality and artistry. For the ailurophile in your life, we’ve gathered unique pieces that celebrate all things feline.
When is Cat Lovers Month?
Cat Lovers Month takes place every December, making the winter holiday season the perfect time to surprise your favorite cat enthusiast with something special. It’s also a wonderful excuse to treat yourself if your wardrobe, home, or accessories could use a touch of whiskered whimsy.
But honestly, every month can be Cat Lovers Month when you shop from artists who know how to make the everyday extraordinary.
