Cats Are Already Going For The Christmas Trees And It's Carnage

It’s the most wonderful time of the year – unless you’re a cat owner. In which case, welcome to a month of Christmas tree hell.

Yes that’s right. The kitties of the world are already wreaking havoc on their owner’s trees – the ones they’ve spent hours decorating with fairy lights and baubles.

Some cats are using the trees as a hiding place, as well as somewhere to sleep.

Where’s the cat ? 😸#ChristmasTree pic.twitter.com/K24mYoRP1M

He pitches up every year in the family Christmas tree, Natalie his owner said “it’s just the norm now” 🎄😸

We love Mike & HIS tree. #CatsOfTwitter pic.twitter.com/9OI3rRi3k9

Anybody want a free cat?

- Loves Christmas (trees)
- Loves playing fetch (with baubles)
- Loves playing with branches (from the Christmas tree)

My cat destroyed my Christmas tree in the middle of the night and it really took the holly and jolly right outta me.

New house has 30 foot ceiling in front room:
Wife: let’s get a 9ft Christmas tree
Me: why not
Reality: you have f-Ing cats dipshits
Tree up and down in less than an hour, no ornaments ever on it, base fubarred, and cats have no guilt or concern. And Duck needs to get it going pic.twitter.com/GC3WbRrW3t

I can hear my cat fucking up the Christmas tree but I do not have the energy to get up and stop him

So some owners just don’t even try.

I actually refuse to put a big Christmas tree up this year knowing fine well it will be completely destroyed after one hour pic.twitter.com/IiTMw1ipb0
