Why we love it:
If you have , food-filled stockings might be a better option than toys. Also, what could make a better Christmas bundle than your cat’s favourite treats? Dreamies* offers a bundle of their most-loved products in stocking-like packaging so you can add it to your stocking lineup under the tree.

Pros:
Comes pre-filled, so you don’t have to worry about buying extra gifts.
Affordable, especially if you are buying for multiple cats.
Single-use, perfect if you don’t have storage space or you prefer to change stockings every year.
Cons:
The stocking is made of cardboard, so it looks less festive than other options.
It’s a single-use stocking, meaning that it will only last one festive season.

$26.8$13.4Why we love it:
Personalised stockings are more expensive than other, simpler options, but they usually last for a lifetime and make for a lovely keepsake. This Etsy option features your cat's lovely face on the stocking, along with their name. You only have to send a picture of your cat, add their name to the order and choose the colour. Be prepared, though, when choosing a personalised Christmas stocking, you will need to give the seller at least a couple of weeks to prepare and ship your order, so this is not a good option for a last-minute gift.
Pros:
A unique style bespoke to your needs.
You will be supporting a small business.
It’s reusable and long-lasting, you will be using this stocking for years to come.
Cons:
Longer delivery time, better to be ordered four or more weeks in advance.
More expensive than other options on the market.
It’s sold empty, so you have to buy the gifts to put inside the stocking .
