We have found out that an artificial tree is much neater and easier with animals in the house.

Last year we had a real one, and this year, we might go tree-less. If we do get a tree it will be fake.

When I do get a tree, it's a real one (love the smell!), with real candles too.

You can get different kinds here, the thicker darker ones don't drop the neddles so much.

Indeed!! That is the kind of tree we get every year

. I hope Zazou will behave and leave the tree alone; I'd better ask Maya to teach her

I have an artifical tree that I set upon the living room table since I live alone. If I want to see and smell a real tree I can go to my brother's house on Christmas day. Thank goodness Nikki & Daisy are good with the tree. I don't know what Marigold's reaction will be!

Real Real Real, "open a bottle of Pine-Sol??" You are kidding right? It doesn't have to be huge and I always put it up on a low sturdy table or something and secure the top of it with fish line tied to the upper window sash so even if a cat climbs up it won't topple. Just a few very special and meaningful ornaments and lots of babies breath from the flower shop. I usually try to buy a live one with a root ball so I can replant it. It works quite well. Yes it can be a bit of trouble but what the heck, it's worth it to me.
