Cats are one of the most popular subjects in 3D printing, and the gifts go well beyond figurines. This list has nine cat 3D print ideas from Etsy shops: toys, desk pieces, decor and one file you can print yourself.
Articulated Cats
Articulated Baby Cat
A 6-inch articulated kitten that can be customized to look like a real pet. The shop has a long list of color options, so check the drop-downs before ordering.

Multicolor Articulated Cat
A poseable cat in popular breed colors or solid colors. It’s big: about 9.75 inches lying down for the small one and 12 inches for the large.

Flexi Kitty Bubble STL
A print-in-place flexi kitty, 100 mm long, that needs no supports. This one is a digital file, not a physical toy, and includes multicolor versions for Bambu Lab printers.

Cat Decor for the Home
Black Cat TV Night Light
A mid-century style night light shaped like a retro TV with a black cat on the screen. It’s thin plastic, so the shop says it must be used with an LED bulb.

Cat Mosaic Wall Art
A crowd of bright cartoon cats in a circle, printed layer by layer so the surface is raised, and framed at 8 by 8 inches.

Cat Gifts for the Desk

Cat Pencil Holder
A minimalist kitty that holds pens and pencils. Order two or more and the shop adds a clip to join them together.

A flip cover that sits over a PC’s power button, so a cat lying on a warm gaming tower can’t switch it off. It attaches with tape or glue and comes with or without the word ON.

Cat 3D Prints for Cats, Not Just People
Most cat 3D prints are for owners, but 3D printed cat toys are a growing search on Pinterest too. If a print is meant for the cat itself, skip small parts that can break off and be chewed.
