I think Snow is excited. If anything maybe just for the tree to climb and bows to chew.
I am buying her a new cat house/ scratcher/ tree combo. Also new dishes and toys. The horses are getting a new stable. We just finished building it. Our dogs are getting the usual stocking full of goodies. Also new dishes and toys. What are you guys getting your cats and/or other animals?

W/ the best cats
For the kitties and the doggies, extra treats and food.
But because Christmas is another season of firecrackers, the animals do not enjoy the holidays much.

There's no place like home
Mine like it when I pull out wrapping paper and shipping boxes. I have the best little helpers in the world! I don't put up a tree so their is no excitement there.

Well, since the cats don't know what holidays are, no lol.

This will be most of our cats first REAL tree, so we will see how that goes.

Mine do not even know it's Chrstmas. I can't put up a tree or decorate. All that stuff would last about 5 minutes, before the bobs took it down

Mine are unimpressed by trees, decorations, wrapping for the most part. They mostly don't even investigate aromatic prezzies under the tree. So, are they excited? Not. Couldn't care less. They'll get their prezzies, all the same: treats, catnip, toys, but they won't give the humans much joy about it. Party poopers!

Mine don't even know it's Wednesday, how could they be excited about Christmas?

Actually, I guess if Dottie puts up her Christmas decorations, they'll know something is different.

Toby's very excited about his first Christmas. He loved when I put out all the decorations last weekend. The bells scared him a bit, but he liked everything else. He was inside the gift wrapping box today while I was wrapping presents and then sat and guarded them under the tree. I have a feeling he's going to try to tear them open or just crush them when he's racing around the house like a mad cat, but at least he's having fun!

Angel gets excited. Maybe its the decorations or the mood or something but she starts getting really into whats going on outside and stuff.

They are not excited because nobody has told them yet. We have no place in our new home for a tree and the cats would not stand for a tree in the house without destroying it (mostly Persi), so they will remain igorant of the fact until they receive their presents.

I think we will probably get them new cat houses, toys, and new dishes for wet food (they have automatic/self feeders for dry food so they have it out all day, though it doesn't work very well). I might get them treats also, but I'm not sure. It depends on the type of food they have by then.

Last year Kitty and Maisie were really unimpressed with it all
They will be getting stockings this year and maybe a special something unless I run out of lolly however I`m sure they will remain unimpressed. They don`t get excited about much
