Buying gifts for loved ones can be tricky. Even if you know them really well, there’s always that feeling that you don’t quite know what to get them.
Luckily, pet lovers are often easy to shop for. You know that they have a kind heart and love their cat, dog, rodent or other pet beyond measure. This means you can tap into their interests and find the perfect gift.
To help you find the perfect present, here are some of the top gifts for pet lovers.
1. Themed stationery
Know what’s even better than stationery? Pet themed stationery! It’s hard to resist a notebook covered with dachshunds, or a wall calendar dedicated to your favourite cat breed.
What’s great about gifting stationery is that it’s both beautiful and practical. Look for items that people can enjoy over and over again – like a personalised pen or a reusable magnetic board. If there’s a collection available featuring their favourite pet, try picking out a few items to put together a lovely gift.
2. Pet illustrations
For pet lovers, their animals are their everything. They’re a huge part of their life, home and family. Honour their love for their pet by getting a custom pet illustration made.
A custom illustration isn’t as expensive as you might think, either. At Vector Pets you can get a lovely animal illustration from just £8, which makes it really affordable compared to other options.
Ask your loved one for their favourite photo of their pet, or choose one from their social media. Send this across and you’ll end up with a beautiful illustration that you can either send as a standalone gift or have printed onto paper, canvas, t-shirts or more.
3. Personalised mug
Give your pet loving friend or relative something to smile about every time they enjoy a cup of tea or coffee.
A personalised mug is a great way to show someone you know them and care about their interests. There are plenty of sites out there that let you customise everything from text and fonts to images and colours.
Find a pet-themed mug that looks similar to their pet and personalise with their name or a greeting. You could also look into getting a personalised photo mug with their favourite snap of them and their pet.
4. Pet themed jewellery
If your loved one is a jewellery-wearer, then this is the perfect opportunity to gift them something they’ll treasure forever.
Look for pet themed jewellery that will brighten up their day. If your friend or relative has pierced ears, why not see if you can find a lovely, quality pair of cat or dog themed earrings. There are also lots of beautiful bracelets, necklaces and rings out there.
For a subtle twist on pet-lover jewellery, try something like a Radley watch. The branding features dogs, so it’s a great gift idea for a dog-lover if they don’t want anything too obviously themed.
5. Personalised keyring
For a sweet and practical gift idea for pet lovers, why not try a personalised keyring?
Personalised keyrings make great gifts for dog owners, as they’re always leaving home throughout the day to walk their pet. This means they’ll have a constant reminder with them of their beloved animal or animals.
There are so many talented makers out there that can create something personalised for you in plenty of mediums. This means you’ll be able to find a personalised keyring to suit your gift recipient, whether you’re looking for a resin cat-shaped keyring or a leather stamped keyring.
How to make your gift even sweeter
Once you’ve found the perfect gift for your pet lover, it’s time to think about how to wrap and send or present your gift to them.
Go all out with some animal-themed gift wrap, complete with bows and stickers for a really personal touch. You could even look into getting custom gift wrap made with photos of them and their beloved pet(s).
If you get the chance to hand over gifts in person, take the opportunity to give their pet a good fuss while you’re there. If you’re sending the gift by post, pop in a sweet token gift for their animals too. They’ll really appreciate the gesture and thoughtfulness.
Find the perfect gift for pet lovers with ease
We hope this guide has helped you find the perfect gift for a pet lover in your life. Whether you choose a personalised mug or a lovely illustration of their pet, they’re sure to love the attention to detail and kindness behind your gift.
