Posted on Whiskertips, December 24, 2009, when William and Ernest were still young adults.
If you read my earlier post, our Christmas tree
has been the subject of intense, but not unexpected, conflict.
As soon as the tree lit up, so did William and Ernest.
William had to be physically restrained from chewing on the lights.
The next morning Kathy found the tree lying on its side and the cats out of sight.
The tree spent the day en deshabille, as it were.
After lengthy trilateral negotiations, a compromise was reached.
Ornaments and tree skirt are, of course, out of the question.
Gifts will appear Christmas morning immediately before they’re to be opened.
