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 cost of the subscriptions: (the value will always be much more than what you paid)

With either of them, you can sign up month-to-month or with a 3-month or 6-month plan where you prepay for that many boxes at a time. “The more you pay for ahead of time, the cheaper per box! The regular CatLadyBox can go as low as $31.33/month and the CRAZY CatLadyBox can be as low as $36/month.” You can cancel any time or just skip a subscription period if you want.

October 2018 CRAZY CatLadyBox
Theme: Black Cats Box
The product information card details everything in the box, including retail values. Almost all items curated for this month’s theme were made exclusively for CatLadyBox.
Featured Cat Lady Artist: Asra Rae
Asra Rae makes magic with color and light, and loves cats, of course! This adorable fluffy black kitten was painted exclusively for our Black Cats Box! You can contact her for portraits and see more of her work at www.facebook.com/AsraRaeArt.
Black Cat Picture Frame – Exclusive by CatLadyBox ($9.99)
This is a great wooden picture frame that fits a 4×6 photo (cut to size). It has a great little kickstand and is meant to sit on a table, not hung on a wall. The frame we received had a few minor scratches, dings, and bumps on the ears, but overall was really cute! The frame includes actual glass (not plexiglass), so keep that in mind when unhooking the back to put your picture inside!
Black Cat Coasters – Custom for CatLadyBox ($14.99)
This is a set of four black cat coasters that are super sparkly and adorable! Initially I was concerned that the glitter was topical and would get everywhere. Fortunately for me, these are thick plastic coasters with the glitter mixed right into the plastic! Each coaster is glittery on both the front and the back with the CatLadyBox branding only on one side. I really like these!
Black Cats Long Sleeve Shirt – Exclusive by CatLadyBox ($26.99)
“A trio of mysterious black kitties graces this long sleeve shirt with their purrfect presence! Black heather materials for super-soft feel, and long sleeves to kick off the fall season! Wear your love for black cats with pride!”
Long sleeve tees are my favorite and this design and color scheme is perfect for October. My girl, Rambo, approves of the design, offering one small suggestion to include her side profile next time!
BONUS! Glitter Cat Ears ($6.99)
CatLadyBox always includes a set of ameowzing cat ears in its October box, just in time for Halloween! This pair is particularly pretty with chunky, multicolored glitter sparkles decorating the ears and the headband. I will definitely put these to use this year when we go trick-or-treating with Gabe in our neighborhood!
Black Cat Tail Toy (left) – Exclusive by CatLadyBox ($4.99)
“Purr-emium catnip-filled black cat head with a long fluffy tail that is sure to be tons of fun! Let the flinging and bunny-kicking begin!”
Hand-Knit Black Cat Catnip Toy (right) – Exclusive for CatLadyBox ($4.99)
“This adorable little black kitty was hand-knit and fair-traded from Peru, then stuffed full of the most potent catnip around! Sure to be your cat’s new favorite!”
Rambo played with this Black Cat Tail toy all over the cat tower. This was clearly HER toy and none of the other cats were allowed to touch it! She even curled up with it in her paws for an afternoon cat nap after all the exhausting play. Definitely a favorite!
Rambo thought the Hand-Knit Black Cat catnip toy was nose-licking good! She carried it around the living room, howling as though she caught a mouse and kept proudly dropping it at my feet. She’s such a good hunter!
The retail value of the October 2018 CRAZY CatLadyBox totals $68.94. The Black Cats Box is definitely a favorite each year and I’m so glad that CatLadyBox dedicates an entire month’s box theme to these amazing, lovable black kitty cats! The selected items were totally on point with the theme and we loved everything included!
Did you know that you can shop past CatLadyBox items by going to the website? So if you see something on our CatLadyBox reviews that you think would make a great gift for the Holiday season, check out their individual item sales!
Spoiler Alert: The next box has some ameowzing kitchen items!
What a perfect box for cat lovers! In a year when my kiddo is done with college, she wants a hairless cat. I’m keeping this idea for her as a gift!
