Anne; Almost all cats consider Christmas trees to be large and very cool cat toys. Expect them to climb the tree and take precautions. Don't hang anything fragile and dear to you until you are convinced that they won't climb the tree. If/when you do hang frogile things, hang the high amd attach them securley. Make sure that the tree is very stable. I always hang a bunch of ornaments suitable for cat toys at the bottom and just replace them on the tree every day a they are removed. In the evenings, get a nice glass of wine or other appropiate beverage and set the ornaments to moving, then sit back and enjoy the show. Penny
