Cats and Christmas trees

When you do catch him, you'll get the pleasure of pulling a long strand of tinsel out of his ass.

Yeah. That's what I already said.

Yes, but you didn't explain the dangerous results in glowing detail.

Last tree I had, Tango left the bottom ornaments alone, but was interested. I kept her locked up in my bedroom at night, we did not leave her alone with the tree. Then, I came out, went to make the morning tea and in 2 minutes, She climbed the tree, tipped it over, it then fell against a 6 foot tall CD case (filled with CDS) that proceeded to tip forward and dump 1000 CDS all over the living room. Lost many ornaments and jewel cases. The bookcase fell on the side arm of the couch and dinged up the side table pretty badly. Tango shot out of the living room like a cannon had shot her out of it.

Tango was found cowering under the quilt on my bed.

Remembering all the clean up, have not had the nerve to have a tree since.
