Gone are the days when giving your cat an extra serving of treats on their birthday was considered special. Today’s pet parents are revolutionizing the way we celebrate our feline friends, and for good reason! From custom-made cat towers unveiled at elaborate parties to professional pet photographers capturing every precious moment, the world of cat celebrations has transformed into something truly extraordinary.
Take Sarah Martinez from Seattle, who spent $3,000 on her rescue cat Luna’s “Gotcha Day” celebration. “People thought I was crazy,” she admits, “but Luna helped me through severe depression.
