Here I am helping to unpack one of the Christmas boxes. I believe in completely throwing myself into a project.
Once we finished unpacking everything, putting the tree together and into place, I made sure the tree skirt was laid down properly. This is prime napping real estate, after all.
After Mommy pulled out our ornaments, she told me that many have mine and Tara's names on them. (Actually, with the exception of the various angels, snowmen, and Santas with our names, the entire tree is cat ornaments!)
Her favorites are these purr-sonalized tortie ornaments:
Most of the rest of our Christmas decorations are cats too:
This is our feline Nativity:
And our sleigh full of Grumpys:
This is just a small part of Mommy's rather large collection of Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol dolls, figurines, ornaments and houses. (It's her all-time favorite story.)
We hope you enjoyed our little tour, and we would love to hear how you decorate for the holidays. Do you do any theme decorating?

Oh my CAT!!! You have a whole sleigh full of Grumpies?! hehe!!!
Your decorations look beautiful...and very special too. We love things that remind of us those we've loved. It's so wonderful to remember them around the holidays.
Now WE have to get decorating! :)
Amelia has been helping with the decorating too! So far she has knocked tacks on the floor, bitten through (unplugged) light wire and shredded some tissue paper. Do you need some more help at your house Truffles? I'd be happy to send Amelia your way!
I do so love all your feline themed holiday decor and A Christmas Carol is one of the greatest books ever!
Awesome! I adore holidays! And pets adore if they can participate!
What a good snoopervisor you are, Truffles. And those ornaments and decorations are pawsome. We have lots of kitty ones too.
A sleighful of Grumpys. That sounds like a song lyric to a pawsome Christmas carol. And Truffles, you are a great helper. I don't know how anyone could decorate for the holidays without your help.

Love all the cat ornaments! No theme decorating but I probably have enough cat ornaments to do a small tree. My Ling & Ming like to "undecorate", so unbreakable go on the bottom of the tree, for their play.
You have the best decorations ever. I have never seen a kitty nativity-that is the best. And your Grumpy collection is bigger than mine. Good job helping your mom, you didn't even break anything.
OMG this is too cute! You look like you've been a massive help in this project, good for you! :) I love the cat nativity and the grumpys especially!
Mom is in love with your ornaments, especially the kitty nativity. She started decorating yesterday as well and had lots and lots of help from us. We must say she was less than appreciative! Most of our decorations are bears, especially Muffy Vanderbear ornaments. Ho, Ho, Ho, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
What a cute ornaments :-) LOVE the feline nativity but those Grumpys is a bit scary. Golden Woofs
Love all the decorations! All of ours are also cat themed!
Great decorations!
Looks like you're ready - I'm so jealous, haven't even pulled my stuff out of the storage room yet.
Now climb the tree and make sure those ornaments are on ok

Those ornaments are just fantastic. Lots with your names on them. Our Christmas theme is Rudolph. Love the pictures.
Wow ! Your ornaments are lovely ! Great Christmas decoration ! Purrs
OMC! Those are adorable! LOVE that nativity scene. Purrs...
We love all of your ornaments! Mom needs to get ornaments that have our names on them. We like that idea, maybe she can do that before next year.

Oh my you are such a help Truffles! I LOVE your ornaments and the "Sleigh Full Of Grumpys" is a total hoot!! Pawtastic!
Wow Truffles, you are such a great helper! Maybe you can teach Mauja and Atka a thing or two ;)
Wow. When you wanna complete a project, you really wanna complete a project. That box would have totally distracted me. I'd probably still be nappin'!
Purrs,

Mom is enjoying Christmas so much more this year because when she hangs up her kitty ornaments she isn't sad now that she has a cat! Under the tree is prime real estate here too, for dogs and cats. Rhette hasn't been too impressed so far, in the past the highlight of decorating was the empty tree box! Love Dolly
Truffles, Mommy is so lucky to have such a great helper. That looks like quite an undertaking!
Your ornaments are beautiful!
You look like you are being a great helper!
What beautiful decorations. And they just wouldn't have been able to be decorated the same way without your capable help, Truffles.
We're gonna take pics of all our decorashuns - once they're up!
Beautiful decorations! You did a great job helping your Mommy get ready for Christmas, Truffles. I really like the personalized ornaments. We don't usually do much decorating other than the tree. There just isn't enough space in our apartment for it.
Wow... those are really beautiful decorations!
Purrs xx

Love the pictures, The Nativity is so sweet, love it :)
