PupSocks

More sartorial splendor for your feet! Pupsocks feature all-over prints created from the pet photo you send in. You can technically have pup socks, cat socks or even human socks (but who wants their own picture on their socks, right?). Every time your gift recipient pulls on these colorful socks, their pet will be smiling back at them. Bonus – every pair of PupSocks sold feeds a shelter pet through donations to local and global pet welfare organizations. Be aware that it takes a few weeks to print and deliver the socks, so order soon!

The material is a soft, thick fleece with a drawstring hood and kangaroo pocket. The oversized paw print is front and center done in a bold plaid. It’s available here in purple, black or turquoise.

They are whimsical, elegant and perfect for any outfit. The My Three Cats website carries a wide range of licensed Laurel Burch accessories that any feline loving friend will be delighted to own.

Cat’s Ears Beanie

Cat’s ears beanie caps or knit hats are one way to keep her warm when it’s cold outside. You can find them in colors ranging from white to black and every shade in between. Some are more detailed than others, but nearly all of them are cute and stylish. BCB Generation has a cable knit beanie in chunky yarns in either soft gray or heather pink. If she has a playful side, tuck a cat’s ears beanie in her Christmas stocking this year. You can find it at Macy’s and other fine retailers.

Fingerless Gloves

You’ve been known to type wearing fingerless gloves in the winter because I’m ALWAYS cold, so when I saw these warm, cozy fingerless gloves made of fleece, I was sold. You can get them in a variety of colors and they feature a small pocket on the back of the hand where you can tuck a key, a Chapstick or whatever else you might need when you’re outside but don’t want to carry anything. You could a small handwarmer in each one for toasty comfort. They come in both cat and dog styles in several colors. They’re perfect for those cold winter walks with your dog when you need your fingers free.

Custom Pet Pendant

A custom pet pendant necklace allows someone you love to keep the image of their pet close to their heart. You can find three-dimensional charms, breed specific silhouettes and more, but for the ultimate in personalized jewelry, we like the custom pet pendant from Girl Power Pendants. Simply upload a photo of the dog to be commemorated, and they will carefully preserve it under resin within a pendant circle.

Mews Your Imagination Dress

This dress, from ModCloth.com, is your little black dress with a touch of feline flair. It’s a classic fit and flare shape in a lightweight sweater material with knit-in vertical stripes that slim the figure. Along the hem, a row of taupe cat silhouettes let everyone know you’re a true cat lover, but in an understated way.

Pet Themed Tote Bags

When your favorite fashionista is going to the office or the dog park, a roomy tote bag for necessary gear is the essential accessory to complete their look. For cat lovers, the oversized tote bag comes in bright red, purple, gray or natural with a simple outline of cat ears in black with coordinating black webbing straps. It’s big enough to tote a whole stack of books, your groceries from the corner market or your laptop and more. The material is a durable brushed denim that will hold up for years. It’s definitely for cat lovers, but is simple enough to appeal to anyone who likes classic design and functionality.

More of a dog person? The check out the primitive line drawing on this fair trade, cotton tote bag. The phrase Home is Where My Doggo Is” will score extra points with anyone familiar with doggo lingo. A pupperino is peaking out the window of the charming drawing. There’s enough room inside for a laptop, magazines, dog water bottle and biscuits, but you can also use it as recyclable grocery bag.
