Keeping kitten out of the Xmas tree?

[Foxton20]

Any tips please?! 😩😂

It's not going to happen!

Ps it's not even advent yet!

Hahaha no

That is one of the cutest photos I have seen since I took a photo of my own kitten happily ensconced in our Christmas tree.

We sprayed our lower tree branches with a cinnamon /pine oil “Christmas” fragrance, and she left it alone.

There is an upside to Christmas and kittens.... Our kitten used to eat tinsel and have sparkly poos!!!

He/She makes a very pretty additional ornament. Just enough if for what it is and the cute photo ops. I had a kitten who enjoyed climbing the tree 3 years ago. He hasn't since, so it was very much a kitten thing. Oh and it helped that I had my tree weighted down with a very heavy base.

Just don’t have one 😂😂😂... a tree I mean not the kitten... I haven’t managed to have a Christmas tree up now for five plus years... I gave up... I do other decorations- lights in glass bowls etc but not a tree... it’s a shame but with five cats I just get too fed up picking it back up all the time:..

Urgh! Really should proof read. That should have said just accept it for what it is and the cute photo ops.

We have a 9 month Maine Coo at 13lbs. I'm very worried about this! He climbs everything to try and get to pendant lampshades.

I'll try the pine spray.

*coon

Never leave him unattended. I came down stairs to find my kitten caught up
In the fairy lights and being strangled. I rescued him but am sure he's been a bit stupid ever since! He's too fat now to even climb the tree!!

I tied ours to the wall ....

Hahaha! No chance but what a pretty kitten.

Don't decorate the tree with anything fragile this year. Now is not the time for delicate spun glass ornaments.

Maybe next year...

“Any tips please?

Take loads of photos.

I tried putting mine on a small table and covering that with tin foil and hung pine cones all around the bottom branches and sprayed orange/citrus smells around it.

Didn't work. The tree was toppled numerous times.

Luckily this only happened first Christmas. She's never been bothered since. Did get some cute pictures out of it.

Remove the tree unless you are watching him.

We gave up with Christmas trees, my cat is a climber and its just not worth the risk. Also tinsel is meant to be really dangerous for cats. Our decorations are low key and cat friendly.

These are the cutest photos ever. Can you share more please?
I don’t have any solutions.... sorry.....

She’s never climbed w thing! Not bothered about curtains or anything 😂

I may have sprayed apple cider vinegar on the bottom of the tree now the house smells like a greasy chip shop 😑 and she’s sulking on the sofa 😂

Completely unhelpful for your question but how cute is he / she?! My cats are 6-7 years old and still can’t keep them out of the Christmas tree lm afraid

She is abit cute

Hahaha fat chance. Cute little monkey

She's lovely, I am sure the novelty of tree climbing will wear off and she will hopefully stop climbing it. But you could use a safe repellant. Maybe some rosemary or lavender in the tree.

Check these out - thought it was a joke until my friend showed hers to me! Never heard of them before and they seem pretty popular.

Good luck with that. Also laughing hollowly at the idea they grow out of it. Nobody gave mine that memo.

With age, mine can climb it quicker and cause more destruction in a smaller amount of time.

Scenticles, they come in different Christmas scents. You just hang them off your tree. My two don't go anywhere near.

I think you can get them on Amazon.

With 3 idiot kittens who climb everything including the walls 😭😭😭 I think we aren’t going to bother this year
