    Tzar sounds adorable, immemother! What kind of cat is he? He's apparently not a fan of plastic candles!

    RedGarnet -- Sampson was obviously a sweetie, too. We have conversations with Arthur, the cat in my avatar. If you ask him a question, he will answer. Also, if he's out on the deck & you want him indoors, just tell him to come inside & he complies. He's more cooperative than the dog, who I swear has selective hearing.

    And I don't understand people who don't like cats!

    Tzar is a Russian Blue. He's the sweetest little thing, although he seems like ctyankee's dog - selective hearing!

    Cats are without a doubt my favourite. I love the big ones and the little ones.

    I have 6 cats from age 2 -5. They are good about my tree. Don't know about Harley (the 2 yr old). He's never seen a tree. Mine like to lay under it.

    I think Lynnie's cat Zoey is a Russian Blue. She has all kind of stories about Zoey.

    I have decided to join the 2015 Ornament Swap again this year.
    Sent in my info already.

    I brought my "yo-yo" box to work with me along with some Christmas
    fabrics so I can "play" around with some ideas as what to make this year.
    Last couple years I made orny's that consisted of using yo-yos, but not
    sure if I will use them again this year or try something different.

    We will see.

    My brother has two cats and hasn't put up a tree for a while. Since he usually hosts Christmas I am giving him the following as a present this year. It's about 12 by 13, just have to finish some decoration.

    I guess I should mention again that I DO NOT put up a tree.

    Even though I love ornaments, I prefer something fairly "flat"
    so that I can put it on the wall.

    That's my One-eyed Jack on top of the entertainment center. Yes, he's a little stinker, and his buddy Frankie is worse. Both of them have only one eye -- I rescued them from my feral population out back. Both had a bad ulcerated eye that was very expensive to have surgery to remove. But I like to joke that I have two cats with one eye so that means they have 20/20 vision!! Jack is 3 and Frankie is 2 and they are buds. I also have three older boys that are all 12 years old and they tolerate the two younger ones. But this past year, besides de-decking the tree every day while I was at work, Frankie decided right before New Years that the tree skirt needed a little extra something (he piddled on it). Good thing it was washable, but that ended having a tree skirt under the tree, and when I took the tree down, I discovered how many of the glass ornaments did not make it back into the box! I love my kitties, they keep me amused (most days that is). And I also have a semi-feral population that I care for. They hang out in my yard and on the patio.

    Mornin" Everyone! I have you all signed into the swap Quilty-Louise. You are number 38 swapper.

    I am really enjoying the stories about the animals. They are so special and have their own personalities. I bet some cat and dog ornaments show up on the pictures this year! How fun.

    Dedemac, Love that tree for your brother. Very cute and so perfect.
