February 2016 CatLadyBox Review
CatLadyBox is the first-ever monthly subscription box “purrfectly curated just for cat ladies”! Each box contains 2-3 unique cat-themed items for the modern day cat lady (jewelry, clothing, tchotchkes, art, home décor, and more) and if you upgrade to the CRAZY CatLadyBox, your felines will also receive 2 or more delightful gifts to tickle their whiskers. CatLadyBox donates 5% of all profits to a different cat rescue organization each month plus supports independent artists and small businesses with their box contents.
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.
The Homespun Chics paid for this subscription. All opinions are 100% our own.
I was really excited about reviewing the February 2016 CatLadyBox! I’m sure my kitties think that our dogs have all the fun because we are always asking them to do tricks for doggie treats. Cats don’t do tricks for treats (at least MY cats don’t!) but we still love them so this was a special box specially for and all about my cats!

Let’s see what’s in the box!!
Cat Art Print postcard by Featured Cat Lady artist: Tina Welter ($5)
February’s artist is Tina Welter whose website is www.tinawelter.blogspot.com. Tina sends out a “Confessions of a ‘Fraidy Cat” newsletter each month! Her postcard print is a sweet green-eyed kitty peering out through the clover.
On the flip side of the postcard is a handy product information list that tells you all about the items in the February 2016 CatLadyBox! I love this thoughtful addition to a subscription box and I think it shows a lot of care and attention to detail!
Maneki-Neko Lucky Cat Shirt by CatLadyBox ($24.99)
I have seen the Maneki-Neko cat figurine in all kinds of places but never realized that it is a Japanese good luck charm. The cat brings fortune and money with a right raised paw and visitors and friends with a left raised paw. Color apparently has different meanings as well, and the luckiest is a calico cat. That is wonderful as I have 2 calico cats – I must be drawing luck from them as well as cat hair! I LOVE this shirt! It is soft and gray with the pretty cat Maneki-Neko on the front, it fits perfectly and I know it will be one of my regulars!
Power of the Paw Bracelet Exclusively by CatLadyBox ($27.99)
This is a lovely, delicate silver adjustable bracelet with three charms that is always in good taste to wear with any outfit to keep a reminder of your kitty with you. One charm is a kitty, one is a heart/paw and the third is a little oval that says CatLady Box. The charms symbolize our love of our cats (the kitty) and the power of our love for our cats and their love for us (the paw).
Naughty Kitty-Proof Travel Mug by CatLadyBox ($9.99)
This is such a useful addition to the box! A 16-oz. stainless steel travel mug with a spill-proof lid to keep your coffee inside when your kitty rubs against your mug and knocks it over! How do I know about this kind of thing happening?? (Looks at 4 cats…)
The Ginger Mouser approves this message!
Imperial Cat Freeze-Dried Shrimp Treats .5 oz ($3.99)
Pamper your cat! This is a resealable bag of 100% natural wild-caught freeze-dried shrimp and my kitties loved it immediately! It has no additives or preservatives, is high in protein and smells very shrimpy! See – the dogs aren’t the only ones with toothsome tasty goodies!
This was a huge hit with the boys!
What are you looking at??
Multipet Exotic Feather Catnip Bug Toy ($3.99)
Pretty feathers, tempting antennas and catnip – my guys went crazy as soon as they spotted it! We had the best time watching them toss this toy in the air, bat it with their paws and then chase after it!
Bonus! Free Fresh Step Litter coupon – up to 25 lbs or $13.00
Stylish it’s not, but practical always wins out with me!! And there is nothing stylish or fun about a bunch of smelly cat litter boxes! With four cats in the house, litter is one of those things that is always on my grocery list. Fresh Step with Febreze is a great litter to use to keep the cat box area smelling good. This high-dollar coupon is truly a great addition to the February box!
Everything in this February 2016 CatLadyBox was just perfect for me and for my cats! I want to give a shout-out to my dear daughter Sarah who actually paid for this box and then gave it to me to review it and keep the contents!! I calculated retail price of over $88 for the contents, truly a wonderful value for the price paid! I just might be over at her house when her March CatLadyBox arrives…
Step away from the toy…
Get in the box for the photo? What box?
Khaki still can’t see the box…
Thank you, SuLin!!
I won this very box! I was so excited when it arrived and I was not disappointed. I love the tee and bracelet. My kitties loved the catnip toy and snacks!
I know a couple of people that would love this as a gift, I would love to receive it myself.
I don’t have a cat, but this box is so cute!!!
Blessings,
Edye
This subscription box is adorable! I’m definitely a cat lady. No shame here lol.
