The Best Gifts for Cat Lovers, Handmade in Dubrovnik

Finding gifts for cat lovers usually means scrolling through the same mass-produced mugs and phone cases everyone else already has. This guide takes a different approach: every piece below is handmade by artisans in Dubrovnik’s Old Town, which means whoever you’re shopping for gets something with an actual story behind it — not just a cat on a printed surface. Whether you’re after cat lover gifts for a birthday, a holiday, or just because, here’s where to start.

Wearable cat gifts

If they’d wear their love of cats on their sleeve — literally — start with our cat t-shirt collection. The Vitruvian Cat T-Shirt is a favorite for anyone who appreciates art history with a sense of humor. For something quieter, the Enamel Cat Earrings make an easy, everyday piece of cat jewelry that doesn’t feel like a novelty item.

Cat gifts for the home

For the cat lover who’s already decorated every shelf, the Ceramic Cat Family Figurine Set and hand-painted Ceramic Candle Holder are the kind of pieces that actually get noticed. Both are hand-shaped and fired locally, so no two are exactly alike — a genuinely unique gift for a cat lover rather than something ordered in bulk.

Cat art gifts for the wall

Our cat art print collection reworks classic paintings — Klimt’s The Kiss, Vermeer’s Girl with a Pearl Earring — with a cat swapped into the frame. It’s a gift that works for cat lovers who take their art seriously and don’t mind a bit of humor mixed in.

Small cat gifts, big impression

Not every gift needs a big budget. The Dubrovnik Cat Owl Magnet Pair and the Dubrovnik Snow Globe are easy to wrap, easy to ship, and still carry that handmade Dubrovnik touch. Browse our Gift Under €20 collection for more like these.

Cat gifts for the holidays

If you’re planning ahead, our Christmas & New Year Gifts collection is curated specifically around what actually works as a cat-themed holiday gift — ornaments, figurines, and art prints included.

Every piece here ships from our studio in Dubrovnik’s Old Town. Browse the full shop for the complete range of handmade cat gifts.
