Cat Christmas Tree 2010

The tree is up and I have some new cat christmas ornaments to share with you! I shared some of my collection with you last year. You can read that post here. This year our tree is a little smaller than usual but it’s very full, very healthy and hardly dropping any needles at all! The cats have been good too, much better than last year; no climbing, and no grabbing of beads or ornaments.

This ornament is Jake’s Lucky Cat ornament. It was a Christmas gift from his friend Charlie while Jake was sick with renal failure. Charlie also had a renal deficiency and it was his wish of good luck and good health to Jake. Sadly Charlie passed away a few months before Jake did. I know that both of them are enjoying each other’s company at the Rainbow Bridge.

This is a pretty Delft Blue cat I found on Ebay. I have a couple other Delft Blue ornaments that we picked up in The Netherlands years ago but I always wanted a cat ornament.

This “purrfect friends” cat ornament was a gift from my parents last year.

We’ve been to Hawaii on vacation a few times recently and I really wanted to find a Hawaiian inspired cat ornament. I was lucky to find this Lucky Cat wearing a lei of Hawaiian flowers!

You all might remember this cat ornament that I picked up a few months ago on my trip to New Orleans, LA!

This is a new stoneware cat ornament from Jonathan Adler. I have to admit I’m a hopeless collector of his porcelain cats. I discovered he designed a more affordable line called Happy Chic for HSN this year and offers a darling menagerie collection. The stoneware collection looks almost identical to his pricier porcelain menagerie collection. You still have time to purchase your own cat ornament off the HSN website.

Finally I made some new photos ornaments for the cats from photos from 2010. The Elf.

The Princess.

And Micky!
