From Wallingford to the Central District; from contrarian cats to face-licking dogs, multilingual birds, squirrely ferrets, and sublime fish, Seattle is full of beloved beasts and boutiques that stock clothes, toys, treats, and more for them.

And stay tuned: Each Thursday for the rest of the month we’ll link you up with a heavily plotted and pin-pointed city grid to help you navigate a new niche of holiday gift searching.
