What is it about kitty cats and Christmas trees? As soon as the tree is up and the tree skirt is in place, you are sure to find a kitty cat laying underneath it. I would say that it's the soft fluffy tree skirt that we added last year, except that even when we just used an old sheet, the cats still laid under it. I do think though that the fluffy tree skirt makes the time spent under the tree even more enjoyable. Every morning when I come downstairs, I find her under the tree. During the day she alternates between her own tree and underneath the real one.
So far she has been very good with the ornaments. We didn't string the glass beads, worried that those might be too much of a distraction and too dangerous. We compromised with some old gold ribbon that I used to put on the stair cases. Sometimes when I am downstairs working, I'll hear the telltale sound of an ornament hitting the floor and then rolling away with the sound of kitty cats claws running after it.
For my artsy photo this week, I again used the Topaz plugin.
Merry Christmas everyone!

I have a dog who likes to hang out under the tree!

Luxie is such a good girl! She looks beautiful under the tree. My kitties love sitting under the Christmas tree too. I was very blessed to have two kitties that could really care less about the ornaments. It sounds like you were pretty lucky too!

Beautiful! Our cats have a thing for the Christmas tree too. For those few weeks when the tree is up, you can usually find a cat underneath it.
Esme says

That Topaz gizmo really adds something to Luxie but it is also quite subtle. Really nice effect.... Now if it was me, I'd be under that tree looking for mice and sparrows to drop down! Failing that if we had a leaking roof under a tree might be a good spot too, not that you have such a thing. Happy Christmas to you all!

You are go GORGEOUS under that tree, Luxie and it's a perfect setting to your beauty. Thanks to your human Pam for sharing what software she used. We want to compliment you on awesome "calico-ness" (we made up that word...)
The Island Cats says
Luxie is the purrfect present under the tree. Merry Christmas!
Caren Gittleman says
That is so pretty, you should use the one with her and the tree for your card next year 😉
