hang from ceiling for extra support, no glass ornaments, get tree with spikey needles -- nm - zeitgeist Nov 30, 12:41 3

    - Constant supervision. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 30, 12:43 2
      - CONSTANT VIGILANCE!!! -- nm - Spawn Nov 30, 12:46
      - Also, we have a gas fireplace - and he has sort of learned "hot", but we have to actually tell him before he gets it. - Beryllium Nov 30, 12:44
wrap the tree with live electric wire instead of tinsel - decline Nov 30, 12:38 1

just put the glass ornaments along the bottom. he'll learn quickly. - TFox Nov 30, 12:37 1
- our cat never learned to avoid ... she learned how fun it was to de-ornament the bottom third of the tree. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 30, 12:40
Gate it. -- nm - Spawn Nov 30, 12:37 7

  - Eh, we had ours against the wall and used ottomans to wall it off the first mobile year. - Spawn Nov 30, 12:42 4
    - He uses his toys to climb onto the ottomans -- nm - Beryllium Nov 30, 12:43 3
      - Ah. Then have a simple tree (no breakables on it) this year. -- nm - Spawn Nov 30, 12:44 2
        
        It would still have to be a plastic tree, and they generally have sharp-ish wire skeletons. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 30, 12:46 1
        
        Tie it up, like we do. Two anchor points (window locks) with yarn looping around the tree. -- nm - Spawn Nov 30, 12:47
