Gifts for Dogs and Cats Give the Gift of Pet Insurance

If you’re like the overwhelming majority of pet parents, you probably love to
spoil your fur baby. In fact, 93% of pet owners buy at least one gift for their
pet each year. And Millennials? They’re most likely to purchase five or more
gifts for their pet!1


With the holidays just around the corner, now is the perfect time to embrace the
spirit of giving and check off your furry friend's wish list. Let us help you
make your shopping a little easier this season with our curated selection of
popular holiday gifts for pets.




HOLIDAY GIFTS FOR DOGS

Most dogs are easy to shop for — they’re delighted just to have a new thing to
play with! Make their holidays with one of these curated gifts.


DURABLE CHEW TOYS

Cost: $25+

Most dog parents know the frustration of watching a brand-new toy get torn to
shreds within minutes of bringing it home. Try a toy made of more durable
materials — at the very least they might give your dog a few more hours of
playtime.

Where to buy: Monster K9 Dog Toys Ultra-Durable Chew Ring Dog Toy ($25.99 from
Chewy)


PORTABLE WATER BOWL

Cost: $22+

Does your dog love spending all day outdoors? Prepare for next summer with a
portable water bowl. Perfect for hiking and camping trips, these portable bowls
can also be used on longer walks or road trips.

Where to buy: Springer Pets Flip Dog Travel Water Bottle ($28 from Springer
Pets)


SILENT SQUEAKER TOY

Cost: $14+

As much of a gift for yourself as it is for your dog, these toys squeak in the
ultrasonic range — outside human hearing, but perfectly tantalizing for your
pup. You can find them in tougher variants, too, so your dog can enjoy hours of
(silent) playtime.

Where to buy: Hear Doggy Silent Squeaker Chew Toy ($14.90 from Chewy)


BURROW BED

Cost: $29+

For many dogs, burrowing beneath cozy blankets can help relieve stress and
anxiety. With a burrow bed, you can give them their very own insulated den to
snuggle up in during busy holiday parties.

Where to buy: FurHaven Faux Sheepskin Snuggery Orthopaedic Bed ($29.99 from
Chewy)


SUCTION-CUP LICK MAT

Cost: $11+

Make bath time easier for you and your pup with a suction-cup lick mat. These
dog-safe silicone mats have grooves and patterns designed to catch a high-value
spreadable treat, like peanut butter. Stick one to the tub, and let it distract
your pup while you get to sudsing.

Where to buy: Aquapaw Slow Treater Silicone Lick Mat ($11.99 from Chewy) 


PERSONALIZED REFLECTIVE COLLAR

Cost: $39+

Upgrade your dog’s style with a personalized reflective collar. These help keep
your pup safe with embroidery detailing your contact info plus reflective
material that catches the light to keep you both more visible on night walks.

Where to buy: Personalized Reflective Collar ($39.95 from Orvis)


DURABLE TUG TOY

Cost: $23+

Tug-of-war toys are the perfect outlet for the pup who enjoys a more aggressive
playtime. Spending a little extra money on ones made of durable materials, like
cotton rope, will pay dividends in extra hours of fun.

Where to buy: XiaZ Retractable Tug of War Toy ($23.68 from Amazon)




HOLIDAY GIFTS FOR CATS

Cats aren’t always easy to please, but these gifts are sure to have your kitty
purring with joy this holiday season!




DURABLE CATNIP TOYS

Cost: $20+

Catnip-stuffed toys are perfect for giving your kitty that extra boost during
playtime! Spending a little extra on toys made of longer-lasting fabric means
they could entertain your cat all year (and save you money on replacements).

Where to buy: Cat Kickers Catnip Toys ($20.96 from Etsy)


CHIC CAT SCRATCHER LOUNGER

Cost: $49+

Cat scratching post not your style? Grab a cat scratcher lounger shaped like a
wave or triangle to coordinate with your modern decor.

Where to buy: PetFusion Scratching Post ($49.95 from Wayfair)


WINDOW BIRD FEEDER

Cost: $21+

These feeders use suction cups to stick to the outside of a window and can
provide hours of safe birdwatching entertainment for your cat. Be sure to use a
winter seed blend to attract the most birds during the holidays.

Where to buy: Jaykyfine Window Bird Feeder ($21.99 from Amazon)


FILTERED DRINKING FOUNTAIN

Cost: $16+

Cats don’t always like to drink their water, often preferring to get it from wet
food (it’s an evolution thing).2 But having a source of fresh, clean water for
your kitty to sip is still important for their overall health. These days, you
can get an endless drinking fountain — complete with filters — for less than the
cost of two movie tickets. At the very least, it might prevent your cat from
trying to drink from the faucet.

Where to buy: Catit Flower Fountain ($16.54 from Chewy)


SELF-WARMING CAT BED

Cost: $12+

A warm spot in the sun can be hard to come by during the dark winter months.
Self-warming cat beds use insulation to absorb and release your cat’s own body
heat to keep them toasty all winter long. And because they don’t use
electricity, there’s no risk in letting your cat nap unattended.

Where to buy: FurHaven ThermaNap Faux Fur Self-Warming Mat ($12.99 from Chewy)


BULK SQUEEZABLE CAT TREATS

Cost: $36+

Many cats go wild for squeezable “yogurt”-style treats. Stocking up will give
your kitty something to enjoy throughout the holiday season. You can also set
some aside in the freezer for a popsicle treat when summer comes around.

Where to buy: Inaba Churu Creamy Puree Grain-Free Lickable Cat Treats ($36.86
from Chewy)


TREAT DISPENSER TOY

Cost: $7+

These simple puzzle toys are great at keeping your cat stimulated for hours with
the promise of tasty treats hidden inside. Most of them allow you to control the
rate at which treats are released, so you don’t need to worry about spoiling
your kitty (too much).

Where to buy: PetSafe SlimCat Interactive Cat Feeder ($7.95 from Chewy)

did you know

DID YOU KNOW?

As they return to the office post-pandemic, pet parents are increasingly buying
products to address separation anxiety and stress in their pets.1 A vet visit
can also determine if anxiety medication, like Xanax, is right for your pup or
kitty.




HOLIDAY GIFTS FOR BOTH CATS AND DOGS

These pawsome gift ideas are sure to make a cat or dog’s holiday extra special.




GLASS PET BOWLS

Cost: $2+

Glass bowls for food and water can keep your pet’s eating area clean and may
help prevent them from developing cat acne or dog acne around their mouths.
Metal will also do the trick — just avoid plastic.

Where to buy: EveryYay Dining In Glass Bowl ($2.24 from PetCo)


ELECTROSTATIC PET HAIR REMOVER

Cost: $24+

Dealing with loose fur doesn’t just keep your home tidy — it can also help
prevent mats and other problems for your pets. We love electrostatic pet hair
removers because you simply roll them over your pet’s fur to build up an
electrostatic charge that will grab any loose fur it touches. And unlike lint
rollers and sticky pads, electrostatic pet hair removers don’t need to be
replaced or replenished.

Where to buy: ChomChom Roller Pet Hair Remover ($24.99 from Chewy)


PET SUBSCRIPTION BOX

Cost: $32+

Your pet deserves gifts beyond the holiday season, so why not sign up for a pet
subscription box that delivers toys and treats once a month? You can find
species-specific ones, ones that cater to destructive chewers, and even ones
that let you customize the contents based on your furry family.

Where to buy: BarkBox for dogs ($35+) or Meowbox for cats ($32+)




GIVE THE GIFT OF PET INSURANCE

It may come as no surprise that over 70% of pet parents consider their cats and
dogs as members of the family.1 Take care of your furry family this year with
the gift of pet insurance! A pet insurance policy can reimburse you for
expensive vet bills and routine checkups, so you can keep your pet happy and
healthy through the holidays and beyond. Learn more about the value of MetLife
Pet Insurance, or get started on your holiday shopping today with a free quote!
