2018 Holiday Gift Guide: 12 Handmade Gifts for Pet Lovers

It’s Small Business Saturday, y’all!

I love supporting small businesses and handmakers. One of my faves, of course, is through Etsy. My husband has an Etsy shop, and I know how meaningful every sale is to him, so I love to support others when and where I can.

And what better time and place than now, for Small Business Saturday!??!

For today, I’m sharing 10 Etsy gifts that are all under $25… perfect stocking stuffers! And the giveaway, of course, is a $25 gift certificate that I’m buying for one winner to pick up their gift of choice!

The 12 Best Handmade Gifts for Pet Lovers

For Cats

1. Catnip Baguette: Seriously, how cute is this?!? Made from eco-friendly felt, too!
2. Catnip Mouse Ball: Adorable little mice filled with catnip and a rattle. You can also order it “marinated” in catnip for extra fun!
3. Grey Cat Planter: Perfect for the plant-loving cat mama! The shop has the cutest collection of animals, from owls and foxes to more cats and dogs. Check out some of the other adorable animals.
4. Cat Ring: Tiny and sweet, available in brass or sterling.
5. Black Cat Ring Dish: Handmade ceramic dish that is as functional as it is adorable.
6. Pet Grooming Tool: A unique grooming tool with rubber-like tines won’t scratch skin while pulling hair out of a long- or short-haired cat.

For Dogs

1. Firefighter Dog Collar: Hand-crafted recycled dog collars made from authentic firefighter turnout gear. Technically this one is over $25, but it’s on sale for under right now!
2. Fitness Goals T-Shirt: Because, yeah. (Check out all the other shirts in her shop, too! They’re all for dog mamas and include a ton of breed-specific ones!)
3. Blue and White Arrow Bandana: The snap instead of a knot is genius!
4. Dog Shampoo Bar Gift Box: This is the perfect package for giving. An all-natural shampoo bar plus a soap tray is an adorable hostess or best dog mom friend gift!
5. You Me and the Dogs: Love this farmhouse-style sign! (There’s a cat version, too!)
6. Dog Vibes Only: Healthy cookies for your pup’s stocking. These are so cute and a sentiment every dog lover understands!

For any pet lover in your life–or, you know, Merry Christmas to YOU!–any of these 12 would make the perfect stocking stuffer. Personally, I love the ones that come packaged like presents already so you can easily give them as a hostess gift or to your circle of pet friends. However you give (or receive!) you can’t go wrong with fun, handmade, pet-themed goodies!
