Cats vs Christmas Decorations

Post by oneh2obabe »

1. Never a real tree with kittens in the house. If you insist on having one, guy wires to the baseboards and ceilings are a good idea.
2. Unbreakable ornaments on bottom half of tree.
3. Take a picture as soon as tree is decorated - you won't see it like that an hour later.

Dance as if no one's watching, sing as if no one's listening, and live everyday as if it were your last.

Cute but I wonder how many cats have been electrocuted by Christmas decorations?

I suspect a few cats and pups. Tinsel and garland aren't good decorations if you have cats - they can ingest and cause major abdominal problems requiring surgery.

We had a dog that ate all the little foil wrapped Christmas chocolates under the tree.

Sure was pretty sparkling in the moonlight in the front yard!

(His poops were full of foil bits for days)

We have a real tree. No tinsel, no breakable ornaments. Catch the cats carrying around ornaments or playing in the tree.
