Who doesn’t love the holiday season? Christmas is right around the corner, and guess who’s as excited as we are? Our furry friends, of course! 

But while you’re gearing up to deck the halls and trim the tree, your feline friend might be plotting to redecorate – with a little twist of their own! 

If you’ve got a cat, you’re already well-acquainted with their unique flair for home decor during the holidays. But if you’re a newbie in the world of cat parenting, fasten your seatbelts because you’re in for a treat!

Take a peek at some snapshots of other folks’ cats and their ‘contributions’ to Christmas tree decoration. Some of them seem convinced they’re the ultimate tree ornaments.

1. “Get a cat, they said… It’ll be fun”

He is a Christmas ornament! 

2. “Woke up to our cat trying to hide in the tree”

Perhaps he thought, “If I can’t see you, then you can’t see me either!”

3. A Golden Star (in the making)

Does anyone know where I can get a star like this for my Christmas tree?

4. “This doesn’t look like a cat tree, but it’ll do”

These owners were smart because this year they went “no ornaments” style. Otherwise, the floor would be full of them. 

5. Clara Imagining She’s A Wild Cat In A Jungle Tree

6. The Cat Approves This Year’s Christmas Tree

She looks so comfortable in the tree, almost as if it was meant for her.

7. A Majestic Tree Topper

Where do you people buy these amazing tree toppers?

8. “Moooom, the tree moved!”

I’m sure the Christmas tree moved by itself…

9. The Kitten Discovers A Christmas Tree

The kitten’s like, “This tree is for me? Aww, you shouldn’t have!”

10. Cat Helping Its Owners Take Down The Christmas Tree

Now this is one helping cat! I wonder how many times it “helped” take down the Christmas tree decorations…

11. “You Said Don’t Climb The Christmas Tree”

You didn’t say anything about “not touching” it…

12. The Purrfect Christmas Ornament

This kitten really loves its Christmas tree!

13. The Cat’s Not Even Sorry

Just lying there, admiring its work.

14. Spot The Cat Challenge

Do you see it?

15. It’s My Tree! I’m Stayin’ In It

It looks like the cat has spoken… You might want to search for another tree to decorate it for Christmas. 

16. “We Set Up The Christmas Tree And Came Back To This”

Oh, boy! That cat doesn’t look willing to come out of the tree.

17. Cat 1 – Christmas Tree 0

18. “I’m The Prettiest Ornament In The House”

19. Must! Get! To! The Top!!!

This cat is determined to get to the star, one way or another.

20. “Cat owners! How do I keep this brat out of the Christmas tree?”

The simple answer is… You don’t!

21. It’s So Shiny!

Sometimes cats are just looking for the right ornament to see their reflection in, and that’s why they climb into the tree.

22. “Umm, hello? Did you need something?”

23. “She’s so cute, how could I get mad?”

Yep, every cat parent struggles with it. Our cats are so darn cute that it’s hard to discipline them at times.

24. The Hide-And-Seek Pro

His owner says they play a game every morning, trying to find the cat. Every time he climbs the tree, he hides in a different spot.

25. All is calm, all is… cat?

I almost didn’t see this little rascal!

26. “My advent calendar is just me pulling my cat out of the Christmas tree every day”

Hahaha, I totally get it! My advent calendar last year was: picking up the fallen ornaments from the floor.

27. “Eva likes to sit in the Christmas tree”

To be honest, if I was Eva, I’d do the same thing. 

28. Can You See Me?
