That time has come around yet again and you've sorted out what presents to get the rest of your family, but what is the popular cat treats for Christmas this year? What can you get your precious fur-baby?

Cuddles
Your cat would love nothing more than a tickle under the chin and a cuddle. Everyone is so busy these days and just putting in the time with your cat would mean the world to him. Besides, it will keep him from getting into trouble and playing with the Christmas tree bulbs. You don't want puss eating that Christmas tinsel, it can cut his mouth.

Toys
Cats love to play. Perhaps you could walk around your yard with a piece of string hanging out of your pocket, your kitty will be chasing after you in no time. How about a few ping pong balls rolled up the hallway for some playtime?

So what are other popular cat treats for christmas this year?

Cats love catnip and there's a lot of toys made nowadays with catnip in them. There's even catnip spray or you could buy an actual catnip plant and plant it in the garden, your cat will drool away his afternoon in delight. Be warned, your plant may not last long having been chomped down.

You could give your cat a whirly gig with a ball that slots into the groove and your cat will push it around like the intelligent beast he is.

For your fancy feline you could buy her a Christmas stocking and deck it out with her favourite toys and have her pampered with sweet smelling shampoo and a seasonal Christmas cat collar.

Tasty Treats

Time to bring out on that gourmet canned cat food. The kind that would break the bank if you fed your cat a few cans a day. She/he deserves to be fussed over at Christmas.

Or perhaps a few delicious chicken necks. Cats love to chomp on them. A tasty bone would go down a treat, but not cooked as it can splinter and cut their stomach.

Cats are fussy eaters and it's hit or miss if your cat will eat what you serve up. But why not try out a home made recipe for Fluffy. Remember treats for us are not treats for your cat. Chocolate, raisins, grapes, and nots are not advised to give your cat. They are dangerous in fact. So other than a few scraps off the turkey or chicken here's a Christmas recipe treat for your cat. You could have the ingredients prepared while you prepare your own food and while everyone is off having that turkey tryptophan nap, you could whip this delight together for Kitty-Kat.

1 cup minced leftover turkey
1/2 mashed cooked pumpkin
1 tablespoon oil
1 tablespoon kelp
Mix together and roll into balls.

So have fun with your fur-baby on Christmas Day, she will be eternally grateful.
