For many people their pet is family, and jewelry that celebrates that bond is one of the most heartfelt gifts you can give. Whether you are shopping for a devoted cat owner, a new puppy parent or someone remembering a pet they lost, here are ideas that will actually be worn.
Personalized kitty name necklaces
Our most loved pet pieces combine a cat silhouette with the cat's name — or the owner's. A kitty name necklace with a bow is playful and sweet, while the cute kitty name necklace is a little more minimal. See all kitty name necklaces.
- Use the cat's name for a pet tribute, or the owner's name for an everyday piece with a hidden cat-lover wink.
- Keep it short. Pet names are usually short, which makes them ideal for script designs.
Cat pendants without a name
If you do not know the pet's name, a cat pendant is just as personal. The geometric cat pendant is modern and understated, and you will find many more in our cat pendants and gifts for cat lovers.
For dog people
Dog owners love breed-specific jewelry. Our Labrador Retriever name pendant is one example; browse animal pendants for more breeds and animals, from horses to ferrets.
Memorial pieces for a pet that has passed
A necklace with a pet's name is a gentle way to keep their memory close. Choose a simple silhouette and the pet's name, and consider sterling silver for a quiet, timeless look. Including a handwritten note with the gift often means more than any words on the jewelry itself.
When to give a pet lover jewelry

- A pet's "gotcha day" or adoption anniversary
- Moving in with a new pet, or a first pet for a teen

Choosing finish and length
Match the metal the recipient already wears — silver for cool tones, gold or rose gold for warm. For pet pendants worn every day, an 18 inch chain is the most popular choice; younger recipients may prefer 14–16 inches. Our necklace length guide and personalized name necklace guide cover both decisions in detail.
Handmade in sterling silver, personalized for you.
