January 2016 Crazy CatLadyBox

I just love my Crazy CatLadyBox! Each month has been completely unique and filled with wonderful surprises for me and my sweet felines. My January box arrived at the end of the month, but it’s been a whirlwind here and I’m just now able to scoot the kitties off my lap and write this post!!

The CatLadyBox costs $34.99 per month (less for multiple-month subscriptions).

The CRAZY CatLadyBox is $39.99 per month, which has everything in the CatLadyBox plus thoughtfully curated kitty accessories and/or treats.

First peek in the box!

Spectra Cat Art Print postcard by Asra Rae – Value:  $5.00

I always include a value for the art print on the front of the information card because I believe original art should always be valued! CatLadyBox features a different artist each month. This month features a gorgeous, colorful fluffy kitty by Asra Rae. Her vibrant style is mesmerizing and you can have a custom portrait created for only $1 per square inch!

The back of the card has a description of the items contained in the box and the reason for hand-selecting each item for this month’s box.

“Cats Are Love” Shirt Limited-Edition Design – Value:  $29.99

CatLadyBox collaborated with designer and writer Kathy R. Jeffords to create this amazing shirt! This is the second shirt I’ve received from CatLadyBox. This feels like a pajama shirt (so soft!) and is made with eco-conscious manufacturing, no sweat shops, and printed in Florida. Best part? I can totally get away with wearing it to work! The V-neck is ultra flattering and this shirt has 3/4 length sleeves, which looks great under my black poofy vest.  🙂

The back of the shirt has the sweetest sentiments of kitty love. If you’re a cat person, you get this. I wish I could wear this shirt every day of the week!

Chunky Knit Cat Hat – Value:  $15.99

EEEEEP!! This is SO adorable! I love the dark charcoal color and the sweet little kitty ears poking up! This is definitely a time where I so badly want to be a hat person. I can get away with wearing baseball caps, when necessary, but toboggans and I don’t always get along. (I think my head is too big.) 🙁 Little G inherited my trait for being unwilling to wear hats (or anything on his head, for that matter) so I spent twenty minutes chasing after him trying to get him to wear the hat with no luck. He actually stopped in his tracks at one point, stared at me with his finger wagging and said, “NO, Mommy. Time out.” *sigh*

 

Lucky for me, my sweet nephew is seriously adorable, photogenic, and TOTES willing to sport the cat hat for a pic! This is a really, really cute hat. That’s all I was trying to show! (And my nephew makes it even cuter, right??)

Silver Pawromise Ring by Designs by Marlayna – Value:  $9.90

This is a slightly adjustable aluminum ring that is individually hand-stamped with the word “meow”. It is the perfect sleek, subtle ring to showcase your kitty pride without screaming it from the rooftops! (But that’s always okay too!)

I love the look and feel. It’s very comfortable to wear all day and I love knowing that each ring was custom-made by a true cat lady, Marlayna.

Organic Catnip Heart Pillow by Imperial Cat – Value:  $3.99

This is a remarkably unsuspecting bag of FUN. I wasn’t sure what to think of the toy initially, feeling fairly confident that my cats wouldn’t see this pillow as prey or play with it at all, but upon further investigation…

This baby is packed with some of the best looking catnip I’ve seen (plus it’s organic!). Now I know why the cats have been knocking over our CatLadyBox ever since the box first arrived.

Catnip Cookie by Loopies – Value:  $6.00

What a cute little cookie! Oh boy, the tag states this has “strong catnip” inside, which is made in the USA! This is shaped like a macaroon and is very soft. My cats are so, so spoiled and they really get some great playtime in with the CatLadyBox gifts, but I’m telling you — all the kitties get completely cracked out with catnip by the time our reviews are finished! It’s a sacrifice they’re willing to make for the good of the blog. 😉

NOW to get to the cutest part of the review… KITTY PLAY TIME!!!

Here are the best pictures I managed to capture with this month’s box. Four of my six cats were into it. The elder two just watched down from my dining room table. Enjoy!

January 2016 Crazy CatLadyBox Total Value:  $70.87

I really enjoyed this month’s box! I am all for getting new shirts to wear, especially one this comfortable and cute! I have the *perfect* cat lady friend in mind to receive my knit cat hat so it can be worn proudly rather than sit in my closet, plus I am a sucker for jewelry, so I will wear this ring constantly!

My cats really loved the January selection of toys. I really should have taken a picture of the catnip pillow the morning after… it’s now almost grey with cat fur and looks like it’s been to war!!
