Yeah, that's why I like 'em, they do look like ice. We go to my Mom's for Christmas morning too, and my in-law's that evening. We don't have any kids, but I guess we're still big kids ourselves coz we just have to have the Christmas tree and decorations. We hardly ever have any company, but the cats seem to enjoy it. ;o) We haven't had a repeat of the "Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Pee" yet either, so I'm glad. But I have had to chase some of the lower ornaments across the floor. Cav's kitty just can't seem to resist, even though he knows it's gonna get him squirted, but most of the time he waits until he's "Home Alone". Smart kitty!
Heh... I hope you make it through the season without any 'oh Christmas pee' :~D
A friend of mine's Pomeranian ran into our house and immediately peed at the base of the tree one year. I'm the only one who saw it, and I didn't say anything, I knew she'd be mortified.
