I plan on making at least 10 different ornaments and hoping at least one will be for the swap!! I want to buy a larger tree this year, and since I found out the hard way that glass ornaments and cats don't mix, I need more ornaments!! I don't mind if they steal the fabric ones, they are easy to rescue, but it's been 10 months since I had the tree up and I just found another glass ornament shard that the cats dug out from under the coffee table!!

Yep this is why I have NOT put up a tree for OVER 17 years.
Always had a cat who thought if they climbed a tree that a
fire fighter would come rescue them. While up in the tree it
would always get toppled over unless it was "tied" to the wall.
Plus ALL the broken ornaments what a mess to have to clean up.

Arthur ignores the tree, too, but I have had cats who loved to play with the ornaments. I had one many, many years ago (back when I was in my 20s) who confiscated a teddy bear ornament from the tree & put the ribbon hanger in his mouth & walked around with it like that all day, every day. It was his ornament, & he wouldn't let it go! It was really adorable! Nobody took it away from him, either -- it was quite a sight to see! (Fortunately, it wasn't breakable!)

The cat I use to have never bothered a tree either, and that surprised me. Now in the past I have had others that would be in the middle of it. lol...
So many options for pretty ornaments. It just puts a person in the Christmas Spirit thinking about them all.

Oh my what a story! How funny, his own little bear. How cute!
I have only had one cat and his name was Sampson. Everyone in the family had a story to tell about him. He was a real character, to say the least. He was fearless and chased dogs, kind to anyone who was blue and down, protected my mom by killing a snake and could tell time. Really! If you told him to come home by a certain time he was there. I swear it! He knew what you were saying and sometimes talked back. Although only a couple words I could understand. LOL! I honestly could write a book about the family stories about Sampson. Your little guy and his bear reminded me of when I brought home a little cat toy for him that looked like a vet with a shot in his hand. He tore the head off and threw it into the toilet. Honest!
