Best Christmas present for a cat UK 2026
Mutt & Mog sells the products below. Prices and delivery checked 5 November 2026.
The best Christmas present for an indoor cat is a tunnel such as the rainbow collapsible cat tunnel (£14.00): somewhere to hide, ambush and run on its own, with no batteries, no laser and no noise. The folding S-shaped cat tunnel (£16.00) folds flat for small flats.
Skip a tunnel for a cat that chews fabric. For play together, a wand you move yourself does more, and we do not sell one yet. Delivery is free and takes 5 to 12 working days from China. Order by Monday 7 December 2026 for delivery by Wednesday 23 December.

What is the absolute best Christmas present for a cat?
For an indoor cat, one it can use without you: a tunnel. It gives the stalk-and-pounce pattern indoor cats otherwise act out on ankles somewhere to go.
Do I need an electric or laser toy for an indoor cat?
No. A tunnel needs no batteries or charging and makes no noise, which suits a flat. We do not sell electric toys.
Which cat tunnel should I buy?
The rainbow collapsible cat tunnel (£14.00) is the cheaper one. The folding S-shaped cat tunnel (£16.00) folds flat when not in use, for small flats.
Are cat tunnels safe to leave out?
Mostly, but check them. RSPCA Pet Insurance advises checking toys for damage and replacing worn ones. Take a tunnel away if the fabric tears or the wire shows.
