You and me both, Crystal. This will be Biscuit's first Christmas and we're already sweating the tree thing. Other than wrapping the tree in barbed wire and attaching it to the ceiling, I don't know of any way to keep a determined cat out of and away from the tree. The year Emme was new to us, we got a small 4 ft. tree that we locked in the spare room at night. But last year, surprisingly, nobody seemed that interested in the tree. We do keep any/all ornaments off of the lower 1/3 of the tree but that's about it. -- Piggy's Pad

Since Gerry is much more "into" the tree than I am, I've told him for the past several years that once the tree is up, and for the entire time the tree is up, I expect him to get up 15 minutes earlier each and every morning (even before work) to re-decorate and re-string lights that the cats might have taken down during the night. My mornings are busy enough with trying to get coffee made, his breakfast ready and get the newspaper in and I refuse to add re-stringing the lights on the tree to that schedule.........LOL.
