I need alternative "Christmas tree" ideas. One of my new kitties climbs into the tree and hangs out in the branches. Last year I simply put the tree out without any ornaments...I don't even know what would happen if I had it decorated. I have too many cherished ornaments to take a chance on a traditional tree, but my joy at Christmas is my tree and my beautiful ornaments.
I've looked up "cat proof" Christmas trees, but not really liking what I'm seeing. I don't want to hang it from the ceiling, I don't want to put it in a cage...
I have thought of perhaps hanging several wreaths on my walls and hanging my ornaments on those. I have also thought about putting lights and garland around to whole perimeter of my living room (at the ceiling) and hanging my ornaments from that....I've also come across a few other ideas like...
Something like this where I could attach my ornaments on like a pegboard.....
Although I don't like the idea of an upside down hanging tree...this is kinda pretty...I could expand it a bit with additional wreaths or extending it around the whole ceiling???
So I need some help on how to showcase my ornaments (and lights....I need my sparkle!) It doesn't have to be a "tree" per se, but still I want it to feel like Christmas...any ideas?
Bynx likes to chew on...everthing...so it has to be off the ground.
Chester is a climber so I don't want it to be too inviting where he'll think it's a new cat perch.
