What to get the old boy for Christmas?

I need idea of what to get our cat for Christmas

He is an old boy so is not that into toys, if anything he looks slightly annoyed if I dangle anything by him.

I was thinking possibly a new bed, he seems to have adopted an armchair that has been covered as his new favorite spot so was wondering if a cave bed (I think this is what they are called) might be an idea or a tunnel.

He also likes to be by the radiator or heat source (humans will do) so didn't know if there was any heat pads/beds?

Also wondering what tasty cat treats there are out there for raw feeders?

Any ideas welcome, oh yeah budget about £30, could go to £40 just means I'd have to spend more on the dog and might get told off by OH!

Why not buy him a Flectabed to go on his new favourite arm chair?

Re: What to get the old boy for Christmas?

I have two which I got when one of my older cats started looking arthritic.....they are pretty much in constant use in this household so yes I would recommend them. Maybe not the prettiest articles but it can all go in the wash without harm.

I don't know myself but I'm told they go down very well with one of my friends cats. As far as treats go you can get freeze-dried meat treats. My Jaffe loves the Cosma treats, he goes completely potty for them! Thrive do the same thing and have excellent reviews

Re: What to get the old boy for Christmas?

As regards tasty treats.....not quite raw, but I presume you have tried freeze dried snacks such as Thrive, Cosma snackies and PAH own version?
I wish I had a dehydrator to try out on chicken hearts etc....

What about a radiator bed my mother cat loves it but also likes the dome bed but does prefer the radiator bed as it's warm in the winter and by the window so cool in the summer.

My two go potty for the webbox treats.

Ah now, I have a radiator bed and an igloo sitting empty side by side, while the Flectabeds are always occupied wherever I put them down!

Re: What to get the old boy for Christmas?

Our older cat, who generally ignores toys, is slightly obsessed with Indysmamma's Bunny Kickers. I think it must be the type of catnip she uses - he ignores shop bought catnip toys but rolls all over my plant in the garden so maybe it's the freshness of the catnip. Whatever it is he rolls round like a kitten with Bunny!

What are Flectabeds?

Where do you get them from?
