That is why I always get stuck hosting Christmas - my house is without a cat.

Sixpence Notthewiser said...

Hahaha
Oh, that Cannabis tree! And kitties and xmas tree are really not friends, right??

XOXO

P.S. I'd love a Kahlo tree, btw.

Marie Smith said...

Great memes. Gotta love Dali’s tree!

Frank said...

Love the various artist renditions, but must admit I've never heard of many of them.

Marcia LaRue said...

I have seen too many of the Christo trees ... in California and in Colorado! Ugh! Ugly!

Ellen D. said...

This reminds me to start thinking about putting the tree up. As I have gotten older, the tree has gotten smaller. I have a tabletop tree now.
Thanks for the smiles!

Cats love Christmas trees.

The Happy Whisk said...

The tape around the box. That's me!

Boud said...

Christo's wrapped tree! They're all great.

Moving with Mitchell said...

The Art of the Christmas Tree is so clever.

Mike said...

The lines of duct tape on the box is SO true!

And I "borrowed" the last two cat memes for a cat meme post I'm trying to put together.

Old Lurker said...

I like the Dali tree, but the Rothko seems too representational.

After all those heathen altars it is nice to see you adopt some wholesome Christian imagery. Perhaps there is salvation for you yet.

Hena Tayeb said...

I love the art of Christmas tree. :)

roentare said...

Funny on the tree analogies. The cats gave the attitudes in the end. So cool

Bob said...

I don't know what it is about our cats but we've never had even one bother the tree; oh, they sleep under it like they're camping out!

Not to brag but we Jews get it lit for eight consecutive nights.
Cheers, Debra and company.

I really like the first image of the sparkling Christmas tree.

jaz@octoberfarm said...

the christo tree really made me laugh.

Jennifer said...

These are all great! Ha!

angela said...

Thanks for the giggle. Especially the tree that
Is magical and will help me see Santa and he’s reindeer lol

Tundra Bunny said...

I liked the Seurat, Carr and Kandinsky trees. And no wonder your cat drinks, Karen!

Joanne Noragon said...

Loved the Wrong Hands trees. And all the rest, for that matter.

Richard said...

The Art of the Christmas Tree jokes are funny. Thank you. It will be a good project to learn more about some of the unfamiliar artists this Yule Season. Rothko and merry christmas in the same sentence. Who knew?

River said...

The first sparkling tree is the best.

Busy Bee Suz said...

I love the Artist's versions of trees; that is new to me!

Sandy said...

LOL....some good ones there, but my favorite is the last cat. The look on it's face.....priceless.

Martha said...

The tape on the box! HAHAHA Yes, that would certainly reveal the age of our Christmas tree! Good ones, Debra!

Adam said...

We got a real tree this year 🎄

e said...

The artist versions of holiday trees were great! Very clever.
And, love that last meme... it's always a risk putting up a tree with shiny, dangling ornaments in a house with a cat. Pierre even chewed the branches of the fake tree.

yellowdoggranny said...

this is why I drink Karen........hahahahahahha

Kirk said...

Better make sure that Mary Jane Christmas tree gets a lot of water. Tt catches on fire, you're going to have a lot of stoned first responders.

Travel said...

I love the last one, all of those toys and HRH is not allowed to play with them.

Guillaume said...

The last one. Hilarious and very true. Although Domino behaves now with the Christmas tree. Most of the time.

Fundy Blue said...

Loved this, Debra! I particularly love Miró's tree. I just realized that Christmas is 18 days away. 😱 This is why I drink, Debra! 😂

The Captain said...

My tree is getting long in the tooth and the boxes of decorations is becoming larger and more numerous.

Ur-spo said...

It is 11 December I just hauled in the tree. I hope it is up soon.

baili said...

I find Christmas trees awesome and fascinating dear Debra. So enjoyed all

The Blog Fodder said...

The art of Christmas trees is very clever. In Ukraine we put up a real tree downstairs and a fake one upstairs. Our three cats rarely if ever bothered the ornaments. Weird cats I guess.
