    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!

    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.

    The joys of puppy and kitten ownership.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    We put a tree up every year. Sometimes real, sometimes fake. This year it's fake. I've never had a problem with the dogs and the tree....It was the dogs and the PRESENTS! Years ago when we had Porkie we woke up to find everything unwrapped. This is Chloe's first Christmas with us. I'm not even sure she's aware of the tree. It's 6ft high, but I swear she doesn't see it. Talon is another story. He can't be in the same room with the tree. He attacks it. He literally FLEW across the coffee table the other day to get it...I love my crazy puppy.

    REST IN PEACE GRACIE. NOT A DAY GOES BY THAT I DON'T MISS YOU.
