The Cosy Home Christmas gift guide for pet lovers

Pets are members of the family, and deserve a little something under the tree on Christmas day (even if they’d appreciate the wrapping paper just as much). We’ve put together some ideas for the pampered pooch and fancy feline in your life.

1. Double fleece dog blanket, Charley Chau

Super-soft, breathable, moisture-wicking and washable, you and your dog will be fighting to snuggle up on this fleece! Ideal for curling up on the sofa and watching The Truth About Cats and Dogs, it’s made with two layers of fleece fabric and finished with a simple, stitched border – not fussy but stylish and very practical. Made in England, it’s available in a choice of two sizes and several colours. Prices start at £45 from Charley Chau.

Groom, massage and bond with your furry feline using this cat grooming brush. Perfect for short to medium length fur, regular use will keep your cat’s fur healthy and manageable, as well as being a relaxing experience for you both. Using a unique, two-tiered teeth technology that’s gentle on cat’s fur and skin, the long teeth gently detangle and remove knots, while the shorter teeth remove loose hairs and smooth the fur. £10, available from Tangle Teezer.

4. Personalised dog collar, kintails
