| Dear Santa Paws… Your dog and cat sent us an email, so we thought we would pass it on… Your Cat’s Holiday Wish List Meow meow! Hi, pet-parent. I know you want to get your favorite kitty (that’s me!) some great holiday presents. I’m just a cat, so I don’t need much, but here are a few ideas to make my winter extra cozy and fun!  A nice new bed would be purrfect; somewhere warm and soft I can curl up in for my 18 hours of daily catnaps. Even better – if it’s near a sunny window so I can catch some rays while I snooze. Ooh, and if you’re tossing out any empty shipping boxes, leave them for me! I love exploring cardboard boxes. Just put a few treats inside, so I know it’s mine. Crinkly paper bags are fun, too – let me jump in and out and attack the sides. Such great kitty entertainment! While you’re shopping, a new scratching post would be the cat’s meow. I promise to only use that instead of the furniture! I like scratchers that have a toy or a place to lounge on. The PetFusion Cat Scratcher is a bit pricey, but I’m worth it.  I do get bored when you’re gone all day. Getting my supper in a Trixie 5-in-1 Activity Center (or something similar) would be a blast. It would give this curious cat a lot to do; just set it up in the morning before you leave! Oh, and a catnip toy, please! Catnip toys are pure delight, I’d love another one that I can scratch, bite, and bunny-kick. I promise to keep you entertained with my antics! Thanks for thinking of your favorite furball during the holidays! As long as I have you as my pet-parent, some cozy napping spots, and a few fun new toys, I’ll be one happy, purring kitty this winter. Let me know if you need any help dismantling the tree! Meow for now. The Dog’s Holiday Wish List Woof woof dear hooman. I may have a whole collection of balls, but let me tell you about one that’s genuinely awesome – the Planet Dog Orbee Ball. It comes in three sizes, and it’s super tuff, just the way I like it. Plus, they make balls you can stuff treats into and even some that light up at night. And guess what? These toys are proudly made right here in the USA from all-natural materials. You know I deserve the very best!  A new licky mat would be a barking good gift! I could lick it for hours, trying to get every last bit. The wobbly bowl style sounds like an extra challenge – I’d love it! Anything to keep this energetic pup entertained. Did you know licky mats help me combat boredom, anxiety, and stress? They cover a lot of bases, and they even have some with suction cups to distract me during bath time. I’m not a fan of baths, but those mats sure help! Hedgehog toys are a classic for us canines – we just can’t resist ’em! Many of them will withstand my rigorous play, so they last a long time. And the best part? They’re so easy to squeak! I can’t help myself; it’s in my DNA to give those hedgehogs a run for their money. Make me happy this holiday by tossing one my way!  Even though I can’t chew them, a collapsible water bowl would be a handy addition for our long walks. They fold up completely flat, making them a breeze to carry around. Here’s another idea: how about getting a video camera so you can capture my cutest moments? I know you get lonely when I’m not around, and with a camera, you can check in on me whenever you want. It’s a win-win for both of us! Really, as long as I’m with you, I’ll be a happy pup this holiday season. But these gift ideas would make it extra special. Let me know if you need any help ripping open presents – I’m an expert at that! As an FYI, most of these toys are available from both Amazon and Chewy, if you can’t find them locally. It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas! |
