I have always put up a Christmas tree. It has never occurred to me not to.
I don't have cats, but my I just tell my dogs "No!" and they leave it alone. Same thing with my son, when he was a toddler.

"We give dogs the time we can spare, the space we can spare and the love we can spare. And in return, dogs give us their all. It's the best deal man has ever made" - M. Facklam
"We are raised to honor all the wrong explorers and discoverers - thieves planting flags, murderers carrying crosses. Let us at last praise the colonizers of dreams."- P.S. Beagle
"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien
I have a "fake" tree - and the dogs are OK with it.
I do have ornaments "knocked" off the tree by excessive tail wagging .... The only ornament I have to put UP HIGH in the tree is a small Christmas teddy bear - I have 3 of them - and Captain thinks all teddies belong to him.
M!
"No dog is born either vicious or friendly, but rather a blank slate that is moulded, for better or worse, by the owner."
I still haven't decided if I'm going to put one up yet but if I'm going to it needs to be this weekend. I bought a small 4 ft tree several years ago to be the "cat tree" in the sunroom but never tried it. Maybe I'll just put it up so it won't be as destructive as a 7 ft. tree falling.

I was sitting in the living room last night just looking at the tree. And I saw a new ornament and thought Bruce had stuck a stuffed animal in the branches of the tree.
Oh no!! It was Paizly!!!She was 3/4 up the tree just peaking out. I ran to get my camera but she was out already by the time I got back. Later she did it again and I got some pictures, but only one half way decent one. I'll post it later.
I'm trying to discourage her (by stomping on the floor) from doing this because she gets her legs and feet tangled up in the wire of the lights. AND she broke one of the branch sections, I think. She gets stuck and starts meowing. So I go help her get out. Silly kitten!!!
Oh, and last night the dogs were playing and I heard several ornaments go flying. We were eating dinner so I didn't rush in there. Next thing I know Taggart has an ornament and he's tossing it up in the air playing with it. Luckily it was an unbreakable one.

Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.
Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!
