1. I prefer real

I have been consistently outvoted for 27 years and counting.

Apparently my wife's vote counts twice. Maybe because she knows she'll be the one cleaning up needles.

but I really miss the smell.

2. I prefer real

but thanks to a crazy cat who eats things she shouldn't I have none.

20. Add to my 2 cats, a dog that eats anything he can pick up

Actually, he brings anything he finds to me, to exchange for a biscuit crumb.
I can just see it now.....one piece of tinsel at a time.

3. all of the above. Love them all.

4. We inherited our unreal tree from my folks when we bought our home...

Been using it for the past six years.

5. I still have the decorations for the ceiling to floor real trees from my past.

We have very little room now so this table top tree is better than no tree at all.

6. Prefer real, but right now, none...

When your name is not on the lease, you're essentially homeless.

7. We were going to go cut down a real tree.

But my husband is very busy at work, so we put up the fake one.

8. Fake green pre lit. But damn I really have to find one of those

silver aluminum trees, with the color wheel.

24. They're out there - but too pricey to buy as a joke

10. Real - we go cut our own at a tree farm...they have bunnies for the kids to snuggle.

Which is cute, especially when my 6' 200# 13 year-old acts like an excited little kid.

...though I do have to admit that I would live to have one of those vintage silver foil trees some day...

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

11. None. I have cats.

[cyberswede]

14. Our cats don't bother the tree...

unless they climb it while we're away!

(we used a spray bottle the first year we had them, and they learned to avoid the tree very quickly).

[NRaleighLiberal]

15. amazingly, our three cats mostly leave it alone - only non-breakable ornaments on the bottom, though

12. In the Army, our uni bought a huge30-ft tree to place at the entrance to our post.

.
.
.
The truck brought it in on its side late at night and left it to be erected in the morning.
.
Two very drunken friends of mine went out and quietly sawed off the top 6-8 feet
of the tree so they would have one.
.
They would have gotten away with it, but they dragged the tree throough thw snow,
leaving a 3-ft wide trail of very thick pine needles all the way from the tree THROUGH
their front door.

13. Kinda Bonsaid a damn Douglas Fir

It was a youngish Douglas Fir in a pot.
Decided to keep it in the pot and maintain it regularly.

So it lives in the pot, not really gaining much in size. So it is about 3 feet tall with the pot.
It gets trimmed but it is alive.

16. That's what I did before and want to do again...

except I did it with a full-sized tree in a 35-gal pot, it weighed a few hundred pounds and required a handtruck to move. Trim it, fertilize it, throw it in the backyard until next year.

[Xyzse]

17. I don't feel like expending that much energy...

More power to you though.

[Chan790]

18. That's why I got rid of the first one...

I'm thinking I must be mad to consider doing it again.

[Xyzse]

19. Touche...

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

21. Fake. Real trees are more of a fire hazard.

Especially with a fireplace.

[bigwillq]

22. I have a fake tree (nt)

[KamaAina]

23. Oh, you mean Christmas trees!
