A Merry Medley of Pawdorable Cats and Dogs Discovering the Magic of Their Very First Christmas

If you think that Christmas is the most wonderful and joyous time of the year, then clearly, you have never had pets before. Because somehow, after you get pets, Christmas gets even happier. Prepare yourselves for dogs tangled in Christmas lights and for cats climbing up your Christmas trees with absolutely no shame. And prepare for these disasters to be the best, happiest disasters ever. Really, after having Christmas with them, you will no longer even remember what it was like to have it without them.

And it's really no surprise that our pets enjoy this Christmas time as much as we do, especially the first time. You may not remember the first time that you experienced the magic of Christmas, because you were just too young for it, but you will certainly remember your pets' first Christmas and all the magic that comes along with it. And you know what? In case it has been a while since that has happened for you with your pet as well, we have put together some new - and very excited - pets experiencing their first Christmas for you to fawn over.

There is truly no denying this level of joy. The lights and tinsel do not affect only us. The excitement gets into our pets as well. It has to be a combination of both that makes them so happy - the festive decorations and also our excitement. Either way, seeing them so happy only makes us happier.

There is only one thing that we can say here, and that is… if you have to ask, then you know the answer. Cats who are not very reactive to things like that have a chance of not jumping up on your tree, but kittens like this… who get excited by all kinds of things… yeah, prepare for some fun times.
