When I went to Pricegrabber.com I typed in “Cat Lovers” and found over 70 books, and some other things. I go there to find the lowest prices on various items, especially expensive ones. Searching under “cats” gave me over 8000 results 
Cat furniture, Feline Pharmaceuticals, gifts etc. Keep in mind that not all of products suppliers are listed by them.
Teezz sells beautifully embroidered cats images on shirts, caps, bags, etc. (U.K.)
Gifts that Keep on Giving — For buying human gifts that help cats:
The Animal Rescue Site has lots of clothing, jewelry, household goods many cat themed. Supports many shelters in the U.S. Great service, I have bought lots of gifts and things for myself from here.
Best Friends Gifts of Life and Love you can sponsor a cat, make a donation, or buy a gift membership in this animal rescue group.

While browsing for possible gifts I found these:
The humorous Ultimate Cats Catalog is a make believe catalog of things a cat might want to buy.
Night Before Cat Mass is a children’s book and a parody of the famous poem.
Catmas Carols contains many of the most popular Christmas carols rewritten with fabulous felines in mind.

We have all seen Cat Fancy, Kittens and Cats and others, in supermarkets, bookstores and pet stores. While browsing the Internet, I found some less well marketed publications.
Animal Wellness Magazine focus on natural foods, holistic treatments, homeopathy for cats and other pets. They have both paid print and digital subscriptions.
A fantastic newsletter called CatWatch is put out by the Cornell University College of Veterinary Medicine. No ads so it is not cheap at $20.00US a year. The well written articles are authored by veterinarians. They cover every conceivable health and behavioral issue, dietary problems and solutions, feline anatomy and much more.
Yankee Magazine’s: Practical Pet Solutions for Dogs and Cats and Others is a well organized book comprised of both anecdotal and expert information about pets and pet care. The advice is from a selected group of veterinarians, pet trainers and breeders as well as their readers. I often find reading Yankee Magazine’s books both informative and fun.
I can cruise the net with the best of them Anecdotal stories are often interesting. However, when it comes to caring for our precious family members — that includes my sons as well as our cats I prefer to get my medical advice and information from those whose jobs involve staying at the forefront of medical knowledge.
Cornell University Veterinary School’s Feline Health Center has quite a few free online brochures related to various health and behavioral concerns. You can read them as an article or download as a .pdf file. Where appropriate they cross reference their own videos. From the link above, you can also access a glossary of feline medical terms, articles from their newsletter CatWatch.
At this writing there are 8 articles about general health issues ranging from what to do if your cat is “going outside the box” to dealing with aggression. There are four brochures about feline infectious diseases including zoonotic (transferable to humans) disease. And there are six about specific feline health diseases.
The American Veterinary Medical Association has lots of feline health brochures in English and Spanish; printable .pdf files and online readable files. Veterinary clinics can order mix and match packages of 50 brochures to give to clients. They also have a huge number of .pdf files concerned with disaster preparedness, mostly for veterinary practices and state organizations, however there are a few that are of use to pet owners such as Saving the Family (including pets!).
Go and see for yourself!
