5. Hey, thanks. You just gave me an idea.

I have a some leftover ornaments after finishing the tree. (Always happens. I've accumulated a lot of them.)

So, a few of them are of wooden or metal. In other words, unbreakable. I think I'll make some switches so that the unbreakable ones are available to decorate Ember's cat tree. If she has those to play with, she might leave the Christmas tree alone.

She's fairly good about the tree most of the time. But she gets moments when she can't resist swatting at something on it. Does no good to confine ornaments to upper branches. She can stretch pretty far. Also, if they are too high up and she spots one that looks like a kitty soccer ball to her, she will leap up to get it, causing more damage than if I give her some low hanging "safe" ones to swat.
