Of course, our kissmoose tree...

Will not be put up again this year. I have kindly explained to others that as we have cats who view any decorated tree as a fancy cat toy holder regardless of location and/or size, I feel it would be just as efficient to decorate our tree with catnip and freshly cooked bacon, as they would be perhaps only slightly more entertained. Either way, the tree would come down quickly, decorations would be everywhere and we would have happy cats looking smarmy. Of course the nice thing about using bacon is we don't have the little tinsel dangles out of their butts. Please be aware of this danger when you decorate your own tree. Many cats have serious injuries because of ingesting tinsel, particulary when the owner is chasing them down because their butts have gone sparkly. No wait- that's many owners are injured when chasing cats with sparkly butts. Please, be careful out there.
