Tree Issues, Rubs, In My Tent, and Addition

 I never have an issue's with 

Misty, she is like the most

perfect cat....

Until the tree.

The tree has never been a 

problem, until 2024.

Why? In the past, I have 

put up a skinny tree.

When I lived in the townhouse,

a big tree was something that

seemed to overpower the 

living room, so once the kids

were adults, I went to a tall

skinny tree. I loved it. Had 

my lights, my ornaments and 

it was not taking up a lot of

space. At mom's, I just continued

the use what I had.

When I moved, I decided I 

needed another big tree.

And with that, the branches are

not short and tucked close 

to the base, and with that

Misty can get to them, to 

CHEW

on. BRAT.

I have tried things to 

keep her away but yesterday

for some reason, it bothered

me more. So, I moved 

the coffee table out of the

space, and lined all the gifts

in around the tree. 

That did not stop her, she 

pushed the gifts out of the 

way. I always read that 

cats don't like aluminum foil, 

I spread some out around the 

tree but before I got the 

last piece down, Misty was 

walking on the foil.

That was not going to work.

Matter of fact, when I moved

it to the coffee table, she

seemed to like the stuff!

Please excuse my mess. I am 

cleaning and in that process I make

a bigger mess. See the vac laying in the floor, 

a box in front of the door, Braden's

gift from his mom but its over here

so, he don't figure out what it is.

Anyway, I have throw pillows up aroung

the bottom of the tree in front of 

the gifts. They are piled high, not

pretty, but it keeps her out of the tree.

Now, here is Ms. Lily Bit getting

her morning rub down in 

the BR sink. 

She loves this so much.

The silly girls have done another

flip flop. I have found Misty on 

the back of the couch, in Lily's 

spot. Then all of a sudden 

I found Lily in Misty's tent!

At the time I noticed her

Misty noticed here also.

Check out that look!

Mom, it's not fair, she is in 

my tent. I told Misty that just 

ten mins before that she was in Lilys

spot and she just had to get over it.

With that, she curled up and took 

a nap in the corner of the 

sectional.

Looks like I could be a serious painter

or maybe I am addicted to 

PAINT BRUSHES!!

The above are for crafts and 

acrylic paints.

The below are my oils

brushes.

With that, craft paints.

Acrylic paints for canvas.

Keep in mind, this does not

include my oil paints 

or watercolors!

I have a problem!!
