Your pet wants you to read our newsletter. (Then give them a treat.)
We know that making your cat your Valentine is a cliché generally reserved for early 2000s movies that deploy the lonely cat lady trope. But it’s 2023, and Valentine’s Day has less to do with romantic partnership than ever before. If you’ve been looking for a way to gift your fuzzy companion a little something special or have just had your eye on a new cat bed that matches your interior decor, it’s the perfect holiday to justify the purchase. Below, the rose-colored presents you and your cat can enjoy this Valentine’s Day.
Btw, our editors (and their pets) picked out these products. They’re always in stock at the time we publish, but there’s a chance they’ll sell out. If you do buy through our links, we may earn a commission. (We’ve got a lot of toys to buy over here, you know?)
Cats may love dairy, but this is a version they can enjoy without intestinal consequences. As the human who scoops their litter box, you’ll also be happy this toy isn’t a real slice of pizza.
