Thread: Christmas Trees, Decorations and Presents

This will be Tequila and Maya's first Christmas. We are so excited. Christmas tree and Presents!!!

I am a little concerned about the reaction Tequila and Maya will have with the tree. I've spoken to our breeder and he hasn't put up a tree in years, I could imagine why with all the kittens and cats around.
Anyways, we've always had a live Christmas tree. Missy (RIP) and Forest never were excited about the tree, neither of them ever thought or try to climb it. The worse was Missy batting around the ornament that fell the lowest on the tree.

So, we've decided that we will still put a tree up but with some kitty proofing. ie..unbreakable decorations, decorations only on the top part of the tree, no ribbon etc... and hope for the best that my tree doesn't get attacked. I've got a cast iron tree stand that the tree sits in so I don't think my tree will topple over easily. *cross fingers*

I have personalized stockings for Forest and Missy. I will be personalizing 2 more for Tequila and Maya. They will be filled with stuff and hung with care.

Let's talk about presents. For playtime...

Thanks to another member (Peter Galbavy) posting this, I had to get 2 of the Amazon.com: Bergan Turbo Track Cat Toy: Pet Supplies and the Starchaser replacement ball. I think they will have a hayday with this.

In addition, I saw this ToyShoppe® Playables Kitty Pirate Ship Cat Toy - Toys - Cat - PetSmart. But I think my Dh will go for a long tunnel instead of pirate ship.
They will also get some furry mice and treats, KONG kicharoo toys in their stockings. And finally, a bed to take their nap times in.

It may not end there but for now that is what is on my list.

Please share you're Christmas tree experiences, decorations and presents (may give me more ideas) for your beloved kiddens.
