Are you looking for go-to gifts that will put the ho-ho-ho in your pet’s holiday spirit? Then you’ve come to the right place! For the perfect presents to give the pets in your life, check out this pet holidays gift guide from our team at Cherry Creek Veterinary Hospital.
Pamper Your Pets With These On-Trend Cat Gifts and Dog Gifts
Whether you’re shopping for Christmas celebrations or other seasonal holidays, here are some suggestions for must-have cat gifts and dog gifts to make the holidays bright for your animal companions or other pets in your life.
Make Mealtimes Extra Merry
Are you looking for ways to make pet dinners dazzle? Many pet food manufacturers create limited-edition, holiday-themed pet foods and treats with seasonal flavors like turkey, pumpkin, and even cranberry.
Add a new puzzle feeder or lick mat to your pet’s mealtime routine for added mental stimulation, and complement your pet’s food intake with a new pet fountain to boost hydration for better overall health.
Keep the Surprises Coming
Subscription services like Meowbox for cats; BarkBox for dogs; or RescueBox, which makes a contribution to a shelter for every month you subscribe, are the cat’s meow for pets that get bored with their toys quickly. These subscriptions keep the goodies and toys coming, so your pet feels pampered for months on end.
Give the Gift of Comfort
A comfy, new bed can make all the difference at naptime. Orthopedic beds made with medical-grade foam make great gifts, particularly for senior pets. These beds are designed for optimal comfort and support with minimal pressure on a pet’s joints. Gift yourself by opting for one with a removable, machine washable cover.
Turn Up the Tech
Look for “smart” splurges that can benefit both you and your pets. For instance, the Wi-Fi-enabled Litter-Robot does the scooping for you with its self-cleaning technology; and the Furbo 360 dog camera acts like a nanny cam for pets, giving you peace of mind and helping your pet feel connected to you while you’re out.
For Adventure-Seeking Pets
Need pet gifts for your own traveling companion or another pet in your life with wanderlust? Plenty of products make perfect gifts for pets on the go. Suggestions:
- A safe and comfortable new pet carrier
- Portable towels
- Pet stroller
- Pet travel bag
- Travel water and food dishes
Sometimes the Best Pet Gifts Don’t Come in Packages
Ultimately, the best way to shower your pets with love this holiday season is with the gift of time. Amid the shopping sprees and hours in the kitchen, some quality time with you will help make this the merriest of pet holidays for your animal companion.
From all of us at Cherry Creek Veterinary Hospital, we wish you and your pets a holly jolly holiday season and a healthy and happy New Year.
