I've never seen a cat that loves Christmas as much as Miss Lily here. As soon as any tree goes up, fresh or faux--she's immediately underneath it, curled up and cat-napping. After hanging a few ornaments and trying not to step on her tail because she is literally under foot and will not budge, we paused for hot cocoa, joining Dean Martin crooning, "It's a marshmallow world at Christmas, when the snow comes to cover the ground" . . . for the umteenth time. And I sat down across the room with my feet up, warm cup in hand, to admire our pretty scene--and I caught Lily gazing up from her vantage point underneath the tree, like a small child in awesome wonder. It was so cute. I grabbed my camera, but by then she had stretched back out and was lost in dreamland. With candy canes and sugar plums dancing in her head. Naturally!

That is Really Cute! I'll bet she loves pre-Christmas the best - none of those pesky presents in the way of her cuddly quilt nap...

I stopped doing a tree about 8 yrs. ago. My one cat would bat at anything that moved ever so slightly; as she walked by the tinsel would flutter and down would come several ornaments ...
I also stopped doing a tree because it is just me here, and I decorate in many other ways to bring some Christmas cheer to my house.
I love your Miss Lily. Never would happen in my house ... LOL

Isn't it wonderful how cats will do that? I love to watch Miss Luna sleep under the tree too, and I use an old quilt as my tree skirt as well. We however, are not so color co-ordinated! Lol! This is truly a lovely photo and one that will be treasured always, I imagine.

What a sweet picture. Lily and the colors are perfect!

Such a sweet kitty picture. I'm sure that you are grateful that she loves it so and seems to know not to climb the tree or bat the decorations or eat them. That's the trouble we're having with our less than demure kitty.

My Ceasar is the same! (And looks much like your little cutey here, he's white with a gray patch on his head). He'll gaze at it for hours after the tree first goes up before he'll sleep next to or under it.
