I didn't think I was "officially" The crazy cat lady, until I looked at all the gifts I've received from my coworkers and my neighbor.

Cat book (If Cats Could Talk)

Cat socks (wearing pink glasses!)

Cat gloves (Princess kitteh!)

Cat mug (has a little ceramic mouse inside!)

Cat Bracelet

Fuzzy plush cat PJ bottoms (kittens in stockings, too cute!!)

Cat Christmas cards galore

Cat 2015 Calendar

Cat stickers

A check to donate to a local cat shelter (as I asked for this last year and received a fair amount!)

and a case of cat food to donate to the cat shelter.

Is anyone else deemed a crazy cat lady among friends and co-workers? lol. Share your cat gifts!!!

My co-workers are just about all crazy cat people by default. :)

So far I've gotten a 2015 cat calendar, cat treats and some toy mice for Mogli.

I got a book of cat poems from my TCS Secret Santa silvyaleah, and a cat-themed Christmas pin from my future mother-in-law.

As much as I love cats, I don't really care for "crazy cat lady" paraphernalia like pillows, mugs, etc. (although those PJ's sound really cute and I would probably like them!) and thankfully people don't give me much of that. I'm not a huge fan of the pin I received today, for example, but since it's Christmas-themed I can just wear it once a year with no guilt, lol. I DO get cat-themed cards for every single birthday... from everyone! I can't remember the last time I got a non-cat-themed birthday card. That I don't mind! (Buying cards can be hard for some people so if picking one with a cat on it makes it easier for them, fine by me!)

My favorite cat-related items I've received are a very plain, simple wood carving of a cat as well as a hand-drawn art piece with cat silhouettes, again very simple. 
 

A good example of where the "line" is drawn for me would be this keyholder I bought from Petsmart... I loved the silhouette, but it had the words "Cat Lover" written in white across the front and I hated that part. I colored it in with several coats of black Sharpie and that made it perfect!

The most crazy cat lady thing I received was a little 2015 desk calendar, each day a different cat and some of them have cat-related quotes. From my aunt.
