I'm really lucky. I don't think either one of my kitties even notice the ornaments. It's just like, ooh another thing to hide out under. Amelia has taken to taking her long morning/afternoon nap under the tree. My other cat, Esther, seems to have begrudgingly given up the tree spot this year to the new cat because usually she's underneath it. But Esther's getting older, so she takes her nap on my bed usually. She's like, I want to nap in comfort! Kit.
