Christmas Cat-astrophes Open Thread

They tried hanging the Christmas tree from the ceiling, to protect it from the predations of the cats. Their human schemings failed.

8 I have 5 cats.

There is no way I will be able to have a Christmas tree in my house. Mostly because I don't have room for one (too many books in the way).

But also because there is a non-zero probability of catastrophe.

27 Northernlurker, I grew up with cats--a particular cat actually--and had cats for years. But after my last cat died there was a gap after which I developed an allergy. I still like them but they make me sneeze like crazy and make my eyes water.

I have thus discovered the joy of owning a dog.

Up pops the forum with a thread at the top, members grousing about how fucking awful it is of Hulu to allow pro-Israel ads. Ads which appear in kids' content.

I wonder if these members ever think about how their kids by 8th grade become so pro-Palestine they march in parades with flags, and join their mommies and dads in traffic stops on freeways.

Who were the Dorians?

Historians aren’t sure. It’s a gray area.

You have to look at The Big Picture.

I was told the Dorians were framed!

114 Once again, I've been sick on Christmas Day so here I am. 😁

Saw an ad for a movie called The Book of Clarence, and it looked comedy-ish, but then I go to IMDb and it seems to be related to the birth of Christ. I also only recognized a British actor from the cast but no one else.

Anyone else notice?

Hope the family time was . . . at least neutral for the Moronosphere

115 Wow, some the old school here.

Hi!

olddog, Peppermint is not the best, but I watched it because I always get some satisfaction from a good revenge flick.

116 Many, ma h hears ago I tried hanging the tree from the ceiling. K gkkd. E eh time k came around the corner, there was a cat with tinsel hanging out of its mouth.

I gave that up and started using the satin and plastic ornaments. Instead of loose tinsel I used silver garlands. The kids threw a fit two years in a row because I wouldn't put up free lights. I had two two young ,ambitious cats who managed to knock the tree over at least every other day. I now have a very tiny little tree that spends more time on the floor than in the window sill.

117 Our first bearded dragon took one look at his first Christmas tree and bolted for it. They can hit 15+ mph for short distances and are very agile. They also climb well. Got him just before he dove into it. It was fully decorated and illuminated and would have been a nightmare digging him out of it. The second one was less ambitious and only made a couple of half hearted attempts. The one we have now is not a climber and seems content to just look at it.
