Real bummer about no tree.

I've had to deal with cats and Christmas tree nightmares before too. I find the easiest way to eliminate it is to just get shatter-proof decorations. And luckily, you can find them all over now in stores.

That way, if your cat(s) are the type to climb the tree and make a nest in it, you don't have to worry about falling things that hurt your feet when you unknowingly step on them the next morning. ^_^
