Anyone who has a cat knows that a tree is a "playground" for a given animal. One has only to bring a fluffy beauty into the house and dress her up, the animal tries in every possible way to "destroy" this beauty. Therefore, in order for the tree to stand the New Year holidays in a more or less proper form, you have to adhere to certain rules when installing and decorating the tree.
In most cases, if you install and decorate a Christmas tree in a house where there is a young cat or kitten, then in a few days the fluffy beauty will not look very presentable. The fact is that these pets love trees, and cats are crazy about bright shiny and rustling elements like tinsel, rain and toys. The only way to keep the Christmas tree in an apartment in proper form is to correctly install and decorate it.
First, you need to choose a solid support / stand for the tree. This detail will save the tree from falling if the cat decides to climb on it. For greater stability, you can tie the tree to a battery or curtain.
Secondly, you need to allocate such a place for the Christmas tree in the apartment so that there is no table, shelves and other furniture nearby, where the animal could climb, and from there jump onto the tree. If there are several rooms in the house, then it is better to install the Christmas tree in one that can be closed from the pet during periods of absence of people.
Thirdly, it is necessary to decorate a fluffy beauty with the "right" toys. It is worth abandoning expensive glass elements, replacing them with cute wooden, plastic or fabric ones, especially since now there are a great many incredibly beautiful shatterproof toys on sale. You should not hang tinsel and "rain" on the Christmas tree, as these sparkling decorations attract cats most of all, and many pets love not only to play with these decorations, but also "refresh themselves" with them. Remember - such "food" can lead to the death of a pet.
