I do put up a 6' artificial tree every year decorated with about 400 lights and tons of ornaments. Max shows no interest in it, after all, he's an old English Gentleman and does not partake in such frivolous activities.

When Speckles was here and in her younger years, she would run around the apartment and end up behind the tree with her head poking through the branches. How I wish I had gotten a picture of that. It was the cutest thing to see. She never tried to climb the tree and her favourite sleeping spot was on the tree skirt....safely tucked away underneath the branches.

My tree is not up yet but will be by the weekend.
