Under the Mistlepaw: 50 Funny Images of Cats in Christmas Trees
December feels like the warmest month because it’s the holiday season. But it’s not just for humans. Christmas’ cats look forward to December too. Cats and Christmas trees have a weird love-hate relationship which we will explain further.
When you own a cat, you should expect it to add its personal paw touch to the Christmas tree. The funny thing is, even after its cute destruction, you will probably be patting it on the head with an adorable ‘Awww.' Thus, you must ensure you have a cat-friendly Christmas tree if you don’t want to risk ruining the Christmas spirit.
We here at Bored Panda have compiled a list of little feline Grinches who managed to fail Christmas in the most adorable ways. Do you also have problems having a cat safe Christmas tree? If so, submit your funny Christmas cats photos or vote for and comment on your favorite pics of funny cats below!

This is just basic instinct. It's natural for cats to climb trees. Cute though.

Now that is funny. Don't you know not to turn your back when putting up the tree, especially with a cat nearby.

I really like this one. Hope he didn't destroy it later. Such a pretty cat.

Reminds me of when I was little, and my grandma would decorate her tree with all these fragile glass ornaments... She would say "One finger touch!" to remind us to be gentle.

lol....That kitty needs some cat grass (yes, that is a real thing) or some catnip. Keep in mind though, they apparently can get really stoned from cat nip.

It's a charlie brown Christmas tree. : ) I didn't even want a tree, but my mother insisted I put one up. It's an itty bitty tree. (She tried to talk me into a bigger one) But I was hoping I could just go to her house and look at her Christmas tree. At least on Christmas day, in the evening, I can put up my little tree and any other decorations in less than five minutes.

My tree has been for a few days, but my cat seems civilized enough not to touch it. This post made me worry though! :P

Oh I don't know. My cat has never tried to lift its leg and urinate on the tree, but I know people with dogs who have had that happen. I will stick to rescuing ornaments--it smells better.
