Decorating the Christmas tree is ?????? ????? ??????one of the most fun parts of the holiday season, unless you have a cat.
Then, it can be a hazardous event putting all of your favorite ornaments when your cat may climb it and knock the whole thing down at any second.

(But don't leave cucumbers by your cats' food dish, it's cruel.)

Added bonus: you don't have to worry about remembering to water the tree!

That way, when your cat tries to climb the tree they will be fooled and the ornament will provide no grip for them to continue climbing, and they will fall right down to the ground where they belong.
