National Cat Day is Oct. 29, and cat lovers everywhere can rejoice for another reason to shower their feline fur babies with love. It’s hard to say what’s best about the whiskery wonders. They prowl, pounce, play, and purr when they cuddle.

Plus, cats and kittens give oodles of unconditional love to their human family members – and are mostly content lounging on a windowsill or in an available lap.

They’re also resourceful when it comes to getting your attention. From stretching up on their hind legs and tapping on your shoulder to plopping down on your keyboard while you’re typing to send you their own message – cats will let you know when they require your sole focus.

To keep the reciprocal love flowing this National Cat Day, consider giving your kitty any of these 'purr-fect' gifts.

Your feline will feel like the king or queen of the castle when they climb and perch high atop this Cat Tower and Cat Condo with Scratching Posts. With multiple spacious and plush places to lounge – including an adorable “hammock” — your furry friend can take a leisurely cat nap, and then wake up to play and scratch to their heart’s content.

Fashion trends may come and go but cat t-shirts never go out of style. Wear your love for all things feline when you put on this Retro Style Cat T-Shirt. The vintage, retro design boasts a ‘60s or ‘70s vibe. The cotton/polyester blend tee has a soft feel. It makes a fun gift for cat and kitten lovers everywhere.

Black Cat Yellow Eyes T-Shirt

Black cats are popular on Halloween – but many cat owners will argue that they bring joy and good luck, instead of the spooky folklore reputation they’ve earned. Show your black cat love on Halloween and beyond with this striking Black Cat Yellow Eyes T-Shirt. The soft cotton and polyester blend is comfortable, breathable, and machine washable for easy care.

Cats track litter on their paws when they step out of their litter box; it’s unavoidable. Help lessen the mess with this innovative Cat Litter Mat with Honeycomb Double Layer Trapping Litter Design.

When your feline steps out of the litter box and onto the mat, the honeycomb holes catch the litter from their paws. Particles fall through the holes to the bottom layer. Simply pick up the mat and shake the litter back into the box to reuse.

The mat is waterproof and urine proof to reduce odor and mess. Made of lightweight, EVA foam rubber, the material is non-toxic and tasteless and won’t harm your cat.

Kittens are adorable, and they require special care. New kitten parents will learn everything they need to know about raising a baby cat with this award-winning book, ”Complete Kitten Care,” by Amy Shojai.

This helpful guide is full of invaluable information about caring for a kitten. Topics include buying or adopting a kitten, breeds, understanding kitten behavior, how to fix common problems, toilet training for cats, litter training for kittens, introducing kittens to other cats and dogs, and so much more.

Keeping your cat’s nails maintained is an essential part of grooming. It also helps keep your pet from getting their claws stuck in things when they are too long. These Cat Nail Clippers for Cats and Kittens from Pet Republique feature strong, stainless steel blades that are made to last. The large, soft grip handles are comfortable to hold and offer good control. The product also provides tips for safely caring for your pet’s claws.

These toys work well for teething indoor kittens and the catnip will keep them content and entertained. Baby kitties can also burn energy and enjoy playing with others or by themselves. The set features a panda, hamster, crocodile, brown bear, and baby elephant.

Kittens will pounce on the chance for some fun with this stackable 3-Level Turntable Cat Toy with Six Colorful Balls from UPSKY. Cats can chase different colored spinning balls as they roll down the multilevel tracks. The hollow balls contain bells and cats will love hunting for them. This interactive toy provides hours of fun for one or more cats. Attach enclosed rubber feet to keep the toy from sliding.

NEW YORK (AP) — For more than half a century, ABC, CBS and NBC have aired evening newscasts each weeknight on television. This fall, the competition has spread to another medium. With the launch of "CBS News Prime Time" with John Dickerson a few weeks ago, all three networks are now also streaming competing evening newscasts. NBC's streamcast with Tom Llamas is celebrating its first anniversary, while Linsey Davis has been streaming a show on ABC for four years. Each network is taking different approaches to their programs, which last at least an hour and are streamed live starting at 7 p.m. Eastern. One mystery: it's impossible to tell how many people are watching.
