They always get christmas and birthday presents. Not just from me - from my mum and sisters too. One sister has a dog (had 2 until recently) and my other sister and niece have a hamster and a part share in a horse. All the animals get presents. They even send each other presents

my kids just get a stocking... because with the yummy smells coming from it it's best that we hang it up on the wall somewhere. But on Christmas morning they get to open everything, Yes we wrap them

Well that is a good question! I'm so bad, I can't keep toys wrapped for the girls. I got them this cute circle toy, it has double tracks for them to push this ball around the circle and then crinkly stuff coming from the top. They love it.. I couldn't hold back,, I had to give it them..

They have so much fun playing it. Last year they got a cat tree,, this year.. I guess maybe furry mice.. and my dog, Spike is gonna get a big ham bone! and my ferals outside are gonna get a shelter and extra treats!

My mom bought them 4 different colored stockings full of toys!
Going to scatter the toys all over the floor & let the cats go crazy in them!

We will buy them new cat dishes for snacks, catnip, catnip toys, sparkly bouncy balls, foam balls, sparkly fuzzy balls & any new toy they come out with

Our cats don't need more toys but we will never stop buying them stuff!

i usually buy them something, but i never wrap it.
& this year they're only getting treats & catnip [more that just about anyone else it getting - we're doing a 'no-present' Christmas this year...]

I bought Hanukkah presents for Butzie. I got her this comfy, pink Princess bed. She hates it. I got her a window ledge perch. She hasn't used it yet. My husband and I bought each other a big flat screen TV. She loves it! She really, really
loves it, especially "Planet Earth" on the Discovery Channel HD.

We bought stuff for our kittens, and my family always buys a little toy or something for the cats. Always have for as long as I can remember.

This year, our kittens first Xmas, they are getting:
-a 66" cat tree (we already gave it to them ... they were climbing on EVERYTHING!)

-some toys we are gonna attach to different levels on the cat tree

-a laser pointer (gotta get the dot!)

-treats

-a crinkle ball

-and an attachment for the scratching post they have. They ate(?) the feathers off it!

We put most of that stuff in a little cheetah print stocking that has a picture of the two of them "cuddling".

My cats get gifts. I don't wrap them anymore (because I just end up unwrapping them), so I just put them in their stockings. They do each have a stocking.

They also give gifts...they give presents to all the other pets in our family. I do wrap those for them. (They try, but the tape sticks to their fur something awful.
)

We buy something for our furbabies!
I have a stocking for the dogs and one for the cats hanging on the mantle. I wrap their presents and put them in their stockings and then they get them on Christmas!
