Everyone’s birthday deserves a celebration, including your feline friend. Your cat has a special place in your heart, and you can’t pass up the moment to cherish their special day. Here are some fantastic cat party ideas for the next time your cat’s birthday rolls around. Most of these ideas can be fantastic gifts for cat lovers too, which you can bring in lieu of a traditional present.
Things to Consider
Where Will It Be?
Will your cat’s party be in your house or outside? Keep in mind how cats love to scratch and climb anything near them. If your cat’s best buds love to hang out in the yard, give them an easy access to their favorite toys and a way to get back in.
Or, if you’re gathering only a few of your furry friends, you might not have to leave the house at all. Set up a cat play center right in the living room. Just remember to account for how many cat and human guests you’ll have.
Fun
When everyone gets together, they’ll be looking for tons of entertaining stuff to do. Plan awesome birthday activities, fit for both humans and their pets. You can place cat birthday theme decorations around the party, and organize the best toys for your cats to climb, scratch and jump around.
It could even be something as simple as having empty boxes for all the cats to slide on. Whatever you select, make sure to take photos that you can commemorate later in a cat themed photo album.
Your Kitten’s Character
Does your cat play well in a large group? If not, don’t worry about inviting a ton of guests. In fact, your party can be any size — even just the two of you.
If you do opt for a larger gathering, make sure you have plenty of treats, gifts and toys for all the cats to share. You don’t want arguing to get in the way of your cat’s special day. With a big group of people and cats in the building, things could get hectic. It’s smart to plan in advance and make sure your cat has a calm place to relax if the party overwhelms them.
Refreshments
Cats love to snack on tasty treats and drink plenty of water. Your feline’s festivity is incomplete without the best cake, snacks and refreshments.
Make it clear to your guests which snacks are for humans and cats. You don’t want a mess to spoil the fun. Get creative and make your birthday party one of a kind by adding in a personal touch of cat themed plates and cups.
