I Can Has Christmas? The Online Cat Community Shares Their Festive Felines of Chaos

Oh, no. It's that time of year again. Or should we say, "Oh, yes! It's that time of year again"? Because, don't get us wrong, Christmas is approaching so fast and we couldn't be more jolly - but for every cat pawrent it's that time of year again… The time to find new, original, and effective ways to defend the Christmas tree from the paws of your live-in precious demon. The time to forbid your ferocious feline fiend from reaching the turkey before it goes into the oven. The time to make sure you stop these tendencies in your cat so he won't get on the naughty list (but let's be honest, every fluffy feline angel is already on the naughty list).

And we know every cat pawrent out there deals with balancing our cats with this wholesome wintery time. And we know it comes across in pictures, because all cat pawrents take a million pictures of their cat children daily (we do it too, of course). So we asked our beloved online cat community over on the I Can Has Ceezburger Facebook page to share their most Christmas-y cat photos they have. And oh boy, the results are meowgnificent. Some are true sweet baby angels, resting beneath the Christmas tree like the precious presents they are - while some are plotting to bite every piece of ornament and win the battle the tree dared them to, apparently.

And which kind is your cat?

The cat ponders the orb…
Should he destroy? Should he marvel at the lights? Should he become the Christmas goblin he was always meant to be?

This cat's expression says “You think you dressed me as ‘The Nightmare Before Christmas’? Just you wait for the holiday, you're about to see the Nightmare Right On Christmas, this I purrrrrromise you."
