First Impressions
I absolutely adore kitty cats! In my 36 years, I have never known life without one, so when the opportunity to review the CatLadyBox arrived, I snapped it right up. The little gal that will be helping me test out this box is my 16 year old best friend named Miley Mae. She has been with me through thick and thin, and while elderly, is still as sassy as ever. Let's dig in, shall we?!
Although I love most animals, cats are where it's at for me! I only have one precious feline, but I absolutely adore this subscription. Seeing this brown cardboard box with the kitty silhouette, is a highlight of my month. Packaged in black tissue paper held together by a sticker, it presents as a lovely gift that has the potential to hold anything from cat-themed jewelry, clothes, home decor, and more. If you subscribe to the Crazy CatLadyBox, you'll get a few treats for your furbaby, too.
Along with the items, this box also comes with an info sheet featuring custom artwork on the opposite side. This month's art was created by Karen Obuhanych and features a black cartoon kitty sipping a cup of piping hot coffee, which captures this month’s theme perfectly! I enjoy this inclusion because, although it’s just a content card, the artwork is great for adding to your fridge or bulletin board as an extra pop of fun!
The Breakdown – What’s Inside This Crazy Cat Lady Box
"Is it Caturday Yet?" Tee - Listed Value $22.99
I’m a big fan of cute tees, and this one is definitely a fun addition! While the color is a little more subdued than last month's bright pink, the "punny" cat design had me smiling and ready for the weekend! Made from 50% cotton and 50% polyester, it feels a bit stretchier than some of the past versions, but the medium unisex size fits me perfectly. The dark grey background makes the white font really pop for a subtle yet playful look. The fabric is super soft and has held up well after a few washes. I’ve worn it a few times already and received so many compliments. I absolutely love this inclusion!
Cat Coffee Scoop - Listed Value $9.99
The next item I received was a tablespoon-sized coffee scoop with a cute cat as the handle. Such a clever design! It was a fun addition to our Folger's can and finally gave me the chance to return my baking tablespoon to its proper place after years of being used for coffee. This cat scoop is pretty hefty but fits perfectly in my canister and is easy to grab thanks to the long cat tail design. My husband may have rolled his eyes, but it always brings a smile to my face when I’m making my morning coffee. Yay!
Meow Coffee Mug - Retail Value $17.99
Perfectly matching the "Cattitude Cafe" theme, we received a standard-sized coffee cup featuring the word MEOW and a cute black cartoon kitty. The black font really pops against the white background, and I love the grey inside and handle for a nice finishing touch. I recently bought a new set of dishes with huge coffee mugs, and while they hold a lot of my favorite drink, the coffee tends to get cold too quickly. So, I really appreciate this standard-sized cup! It's a great item I can use daily, and I love that it lets me show off my love for felines!
Kitty Keychain Pouch - Retail Value $7.99
First off, this keychain is absolutely adorable! The colorful design is totally my style, and I love the keychain attachment. At first, I wasn’t sure what I could fit in the pouch, but I’ve found that it holds my lip gloss and tampons perfectly. It’s such a handy way to store those essentials and adds a fun pop of color to my backpack. Overall, the quality is great, and I’ve ended up using this little pouch way more than I thought I would!
Eddie the Espurrresso Coffee Bean Toy - Listed Value $5.99
I’ve mentioned before that Miley is pretty old, and while she’s still agile and snuggly, she really doesn’t appreciate toys like I wish she would. Cat Lady Box always includes cute toys, and I have to say, this month’s was adorable! Eddie the espresso bean was just perfect for the café theme! Soft, round, and brown with the cutest face, I tossed it around the living room for Miley, but she just sat by it and sniffed it. Still, it was too cute to resist!
Miley is just so cute I could squeeze her!! While not that enthused with this toy, it did make for a cute photo op, and the kids like to toss it around.
Larry the Lemon Loaf Toy - Listed Value $5.99
The second toy we received was a little piece of lemon bread with an embroidered face. It’s perfect to pair with a cup of coffee! This toy was filled with catnip and about double the size of the coffee bean toy. It’s super cute, but I think it might be better suited for a kitten with more energy than Miley. She ended up using it as a pillow instead of playing with it!
What a pretty little girl!! Though not very playful, she sure is snuggly, and what cat doesn't need mini throw pillows in their life? Right?
At 16 years old, Miley has been with me through so many of life's ups and downs. Everyday with her is a gift and I can only hope she lives forever!
