Having just brought home and set up our own real Christmas tree, I could relate to Simon’s Cat, Santa Paws as he discovers all the fun of a tree in the livingroom bejeweled with new playthings! I had many giggles watching the video below and hope you will too!
For us, so far, so good. There have been pine-needle eating contests here by the cats (the kitten won) and hide and go seek games played under the branches. There has been batting and tapping of ornaments which are break-proof specifically placed on the lower branches for some pawsome fun to be had and with fingers crossed, all is well. I don’t think that eating pine needles off of the tree nor drinking from the christmas tree holder base is wise. Lucky for me (and them) we only use plain water and no chemicals to keep the tree moist. I do tie a tree skirt around the base, but the houdini paws of our cats have learned to untie and find a way to play/drink in the sappy water. Silly kittens!
Do you have any pets who like to participate in the fun of setting up a Christmas tree? Please share as I love to hear all about their antics!
Shine On!

One of our cats simply loves the tree.
Mine too! Thanks for visiting.
There’s a hysterical cartoon of a cat lying in a psychiatrists couch and the cat is saying to the doctor “Then they bring a tree inside the house and hang shiny dangling things from it and don’t let me touch it at all…” LOL!
Giggle Giggle! I love this! Thanks for sharing! ♥
We are pet-less right now but in the past we had many a laugh with our cats who so enjoyed dismantling our tree 🙂 wishing you a peaceful Sunday.. ❤
Thank you Sue! I wish you a peaceful Sunday as well. I am glad your pets gave you the gift of laughter as mine do. ♥ I’m sorry for your loss.
It was a few years ago now misifusa, we had one cat for 21 yrs.. another for 7 who was 14 who was a rescue cat and another who was only 3… Needless to say they were all very much part of the family 🙂
Oh how lovely Sue! Ours have always been a part of our family as well. We lost our 17 yr old rescue a few years ago. Currently we have an 8 yr old and a 1 yr old kitten. Their antics keep us laughing!
They are such treasured gifts.. 🙂 are our fourlegged friends 🙂 Enjoy the rest of your week Misifusa xx
You too Sue! ♥
Cats. Gotta live them
You are so right David! Cats are awesome!
Yvonne Im in love with that clip! Laughed out loud. Thanks for sharing. My cats are going to be surprised this year the kids have a tiny spray bottle of water in ready because we know they won’t be able to resist out home made tree…. made out of sticks.
I’d love to see a photo of your tree! Have you posted it yet? ♥ Water in a spray bottle does help sometimes. Good luck!
