No Christmas tree in this house - too many furry thieves and cleptomaniacs!! But I AM thinking of putting it up anyway, just to see the antics of the furbabies!
Gosh you all are brave. I'd never think of having one in this house, Rocket'd be all over it breaking ornaments, tangling himself in lights, eating the candycanes, Oh I can just picture it! So no trees for us..
that's ok though, my house is decorated enough with the cats help everyday of the year!:tounge2:
We've always had a tree up with the babies around. The first year we put it up on the coffee table, but they've really never taken too much interest in it. Except for the garland...I can only have that on the top half of the tree.
I put the tree up last night, but haven't decorated it yet. The kitties have checked it out, but so far are much more interested in hiding under the tree on their velvet tree skirt than in the tree itself.
Tigger's tree is beautiful - it's such a perfect shape. If that's a real tree you were SO lucky to get one that shape.
Mine is being delivered on Wednesday, and we'll put it up at the weekend. I have to say I'm kinda nuts about real trees but get the normand firs that don't drop their needles as much as the standard ones. There is (of course) a price to pay for that - they do cost more, but as we now have our floorboards exposed, I really don't want bucket loads of needles falling down the gaps between boards.
As we now have our siting rooms fully decorated we've been able to get quite a tall tree - I hope I've got enough decorations to cover it - I really can't afford to get any more at the moment!!!
Lut - is that Maya you're holding? She's SOOOO tiny!!
I put up a tree about 2 weeks ago. I am amazed. Ed loves to dash in and out from under it and lurk behind the presents, but so far no climbing, ornament stealing, or general chaos. Then again, I'm not sure he knows the ornaments come off!
Now, if I could just get him to return the 2" tree he stole from my christmas village...
