Top Cat Collectibles

Cat collectibles make cute decorations, nice gifts, and are a convenient way to have a cat in a home where pets aren't an option. These mementos also pay a nice tribute to a cat who may have passed away. Cat collectibles are a must-have if you or a loved one is crazy for cats.

  1. Figurines

    • Figurines are the classic cat collectible item. Figurines can be displayed in cases, on shelves, even on end tables or dressers. Available in many sizes and materials, figurines can be as personalized as you wish, from choosing one that looks like a cherished pet or simply selecting one from a particular breed you admire. Cat figurines are available in most gift shops as well as online, making them easy to find. Also, you have a wide price range to choose from, so you can buy them on a budget or go all out.

    Plates

    • Plates are good for decorating or using. Stand them in cases or shelves, or mount them on walls to display for everyone to see. Or make a decorative table setting by buying a few matching novelty cat plates for a cat lover's dinner party. Again, these collectibles can be as personal as you wish, if you select favorite breeds or find plates with cats who resemble your own. If you collect for the sake of collecting, you'll find thousands of different designs to choose from, such as kittens, adult cats or cats frolicking and playing. These plates make a great gift for a collector or a great showpiece for yourself.

    Jewelry

    • Jewelry collectibles are the collectible items you can wear, too. Earrings, bracelets, watches, rings, pins and necklaces are some of your options when selecting cat jewelry. This particular collectible category offers a wide price range as well, being sold in fine jewelry stores or in less expensive gift shops, making it an affordable option for anyone. Wearing cat jewelry is a great way to show others how much you love cats. Wearing your new jewelry can be an excellent conversation starter as you meet other cat lovers. Just be careful if you wear dangling jewelry around your cat--it may end up being his favorite plaything.

    Mugs and Cups

    • What is more appropriate than sipping milk from a cat-embossed cup or mug? Browse shops or catalogs for a mug that represents your favorite breed of cat. For a more personalized option, some stores offer the option of transferring a picture of your cat onto a mug, with his name underneath. A useful collectible with a picture of your furry friend--does it get any better than that?
