The reasons why cats like to knock down or damage the Christmas tree are known only to these furry animals.

Owners suspect that their pet is simply attracted to everything shiny, beautiful and rustling.

But no one likes to re-decorate the New Year tree for the third time in a month - a smart owner does not scold and especially does not beat the cat for such pranks.

How to protect a Christmas tree from a cat

Here are some tips.

  • If the tree is real, you can wrap it at the base with aluminum foil - for some reason cats don’t like this material.
  • Avoid placing decorations at the bottom. They will attract the pet's attention.
  • It is better to avoid tinsel. Cats can swallow it and it will have a negative effect on digestion.
  • Raise the wires. Kittens love to chew them - if an electric shock occurs, it will lead to burns and other troubles.
