Hello dutchess:





That star atop the beautiful tree
Has been bugging me for days
All those lights and bulbs will be in the way
Though they'll keep me from being seen

As I work my way up limb by limb
Close to the center where they are not slim
Inching up higher and higher every hour
As I slowly conquer this Heavenly scented tower

Shiny ornaments will tinkle and tiny bells will jingle
As tinsel brushes and whisps across my fur
The branches are too weak to capture the trophy I seek
So, I'll just curl up close to the top and purr!

Jack, the first year that Tinker Bell came to live with us, Momma and I decided to have a live tree which we could donate to Azalea Park after the season.

Tinker Bell, decided that she liked the tree. She would curl up at the botton and nap and watch the world outside the window go by. The next year we did the same thing but this time we has two youngsters, Sam and Murphy. Needless to say, their idea of happiness was climbing up and causing the tree to crash to the floor, lol, and then running and hiding. We lost quite a few glass bulbs that way, and eventually put the tree outside.

PURRfect poetry!
The "new " wore off the tree.The tree is now decorated and the kittens have quit lounging in the limbs. Kitty repellent and eternal vigilance helped.
I just received a beautiful Christmas arrangement. It immediately went behind closed doors..Some of the cats LOVE to eat flowers.

Wreck the halls!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
