We saw some unusual gift ideas at the recent Holiday Spectacular press event in New York City but this one took the prize for the wackiest…

…wackiest unless, maybe, you’re a teenage girl.

The Cat Ear Headphones were front and center in the “10 Wow Gifts of 2015” booklet Brookstone was handing out at the show:

Working cat ear speakers. Light-up speakers and earcups. Purrfect for listening alone or sharing with friends!

What more could you want in your headphones—except maybe decent sound? All yours for only $150.

Thumbing through the booklet we thought the real “wow gift” was the 4-foot-tall Meccanoid G15KS talking robot ($400), featuring voice recognition with a thousand pre-programmed witty comebacks—and 1,000 pieces to assemble. Patience will, indeed, be the rule of the day for anyone who takes on the challenge.
