Shopping for the animal lover in your life doesn’t have to be hard, nor does it have to be expensive. Whether the person you’re shopping for this holiday season is a pet owner or simply follows loads of cute dogs on Instagram (hey, we do, too!), there are so many different routes you can take when looking for the best gift for the animal lover on your list. Cutesy or more practical? Clothing or kitchenware? Then there’s the decision of whether or not to get something personalized. (The answer is yes, always yes.)
Regardless of which avenue you choose, we’ve scoured the internet for all of the options, making it easy for you to scroll through, purchase, and get to the next person on your holiday shopping list. And don’t think we discriminate when it comes to our furry (and not so furry) friends. Below, we’ve recommended gifts for dog devotees, cat people, sea creature lovers, the safari obsessed, and more. Some are actually for the animals (i.e. a nifty portable pet water bottle) and some simply honor them (i.e. a custom pet portrait). Either way, they’re bound to be loved and appreciated just as much, if not more than the animals themselves.
Here are the best presents you can get for the animal enthusiast—aside from an actual pet, that is. (If you plan to do that, you may want to consult them first. And good luck on the gift-wrapping!)
