One last shot of the tree

before I take it down.

1. Oh my cats would have LOVED your tree

the evil beasts that they are... :evilgrin:

2. We had to hang all our tinsel in the top 2/3 of the tree

because Punkie likes to eat it.

Speaking of cats, my little Julie is just about ready to give up the ghost, I think. She's been very weak with the hip and nerve problems she's had for years, and now she doesn't even want to get up. I haven't had the heart to put her to sleep, so I'm hoping maybe she'll just go gently in her sleep. Say a little kitty prayer for her soul - she's been a sweet one.

5. So sorry

She looks like my little Scully, who was a 3 week old feral rescue when we got her. Sigh.

It hurts to let them go. We had one of our kitties put down last year - he had pancreatic cancer. It was hard but I couldn't stand to see him suffer. :cry:

It's one of the sad parts of having pets. We know we will outlive them.

8. Oh poor Julie

That is a day I dread. But maybe when the time comes for my big guy, I will be ready because he has lived a good long life. It's hard to see them suffer. Here's a :hug: Blue, one for you and one for Julie. Hope she passes peacefully.

9. Thank you, 48

I made an appointment this morning with the vet to have Julie put to sleep. We went out to run a few errands, and when we came home she was gone ... still warm, but definitely deceased. Jax, the shih-tsu, and Punkie were watching over her. It's sad to see her go, but she's been disabled from the hip dysplasia for several years, so this is best. She was a sweetheart though, never complained or got snippy even though she could barely walk. RIP, Julie. You'll be missed.

7. I remember the year I stopped using tinsel.

My cat ate it and the next day had tinsel trailing from her butt. If that doesn't turn you off to a festive decorating option, nothing will.

3. Nice!

4. The tree is beautiful, Mz. Pip

It's always kind of sad to see them come down.

6. So pretty!

As mine is stripped bare and ready to go out the door- I thank you!

The beads are perfect............
