I reckon I might get a Xmas tree this year for Fluffball to jump all over.

No tinsel unless you want a festive litter box and expensive abdominal surgery

Thanks for the heads up! I've never had a Xmas tree before so I would have gone all out lol

This is for Gibson, you should definitely go all out. At least two rolls of toilet paper wrapped around the tree, and another to make a nest at the base of the tree. And all presents under the tree should be appropriately sized open boxes for sitting in.

Can I suggest a toilet paper tower in the shape of a tree with catnip hiding in one of the tubes?

This is a fantastic idea!

Yeah, it's not at all pet safe (and I consider it an environmental crime, but that's a different bucket)
