Let’s talk about Christmas trees and cats and Christmas tree ornaments. Or maybe… let’s not? Anyone who shares their home with a cat knows the holiday season can get a bit chaotic when a Christmas tree enters the scene! My cats, thankfully, have always been on the “nice” side when it comes to the tree – no epic climbing or tree-toppling adventures here. But I’ve known a few cats who’ve tried to munch on pine needles, swipe at shiny ornaments, and generally make the tree their playground.

In my own cat-proofing adventures, I’ve learned a few tricks, like setting up a cat tree nearby to keep their attention away from the Christmas tree. Another strategy? Choosing cat-friendly ornaments that look adorable without tempting too much cat curiosity. And guess what? There are so many cute cat Christmas tree ornaments out there! Over the years, I’ve even created my own cat Christmas tree ornaments, cutting out designs and making playful decorations that added a personal touch to my tree.

These days, I don’t have my tools nearby, but I can still enjoy browsing and sharing some purr-fectly made ornaments that capture the joy of cats and Christmas.
