It’s the thought that counts

When shopping for a cat lover, any of these items would make for a great gift. If you want to make the gift extra-special, then consider including some items that the recipient can share with their cat. Adding in some treats or cat toys shows that you’re considerate of the recipient’s cats, too. Alternatively, think about making a donation to an animal shelter in the recipient’s name, or in the name of their cat. Shelters and rescues depend largely on donations, and a donated gift is a great way to make a meaningful, long-lasting impact.

Before you bring home any cat, you'll want to be familiar with their care requirements. While there are some basic needs that all cats share, the amount of effort and time you're going to need to put into caring for your cat mostly depends on your cat's breed and individual needs. Some short-haired breeds are low-maintenance pets, for example, but long-haired breeds often require a more demanding grooming schedule.

This beautiful breed of cat is known for its long coat and short, smooshed-in face, but those characteristics also bring some unique care requirements. Be sure to learn all about Persian cat care so you can keep your Persian happy, healthy, and looking beautiful.
