    GFY cat owners: cat in Xmas tree problem..help!

    I've tried everything from a squirting a water gun at him, to going to Petco last night to buy a repellent but not only does it work, but the smell from the repellent is making me wanna gag! I have to spray air freshener and burn scented candles to get the funky smell out.

    Anyways, is there any trick to keeping my cat out of the Christmas Tree??? I bought Bitter Apple Spray and that seems to be working on the lights...I have went through 3 sets of lights on tree because he keeps bitting the bulbs off.

          the problem is, he sleeps most of the day. he destroys my tree while I'm sleeping. So I can't do much. But I DO scare the shit out of him when I see him do it once or twice during the day.

            My cat likes to climb my tree and chew the star at the top so I lock that fool in the bathroom with his kitty litter, food and water for the night. He don't fuck with it when i'm awake after I smacked him up. I don't abuse my cat lol, but I don't spend money on trees for nothing.

              Many years we've had trees fall over because of our kitties. Is this a kitten???
              Ours out grew it because we had them altered and now they are lard laying on the couch 24/7. But...we used the water bottle.

              I've heard that spraying perfume on the tree will keep them off. Tin foil all around the base of the tree. They hate tinfoil. Or plastic bags..
              If they are chewing on the lights.. put a bit of dish soap on them.. or bitter apple. Cat boundry spray around the perimeter of the tree. I also read they don't like Citranella so that Orange Spray odor remover might work. I say good luck..been there.

                  used to put tape on the counters.. sticky side up
                  they'd hate it when they'd jump onto counters and get tape all ofer
                  especially wide stipped masking tape
                  after 3-4 times they learn

                    we don't have a basement, we live in an apartment (a big one, but no basement). otherwise, I'd do this as well I'll keep that in mind for when we buy a house.

                      he's almost 2 yrs old. He's a little on the wild side, loves to do sprints around the house, VERY playful, jumps all over the place. Highly active. I'll try the perfum thing and the citrus thing, and maybe add some tin foil by the skirt to train him not to go in the tree.

                                      I think you have done everything I would have suggested. I must be lucky cuz the cat's didn't do much last year to the tree other than 3 ornaments got knocked down and broke. In the big pic it was still ok. I didn't put a tree up this year so I don't know if they would be as good.

                                          make some tuna salad with habenero peppers and put it under the tree, when he eats it, after the vomit and screaming from burning crapping after that, he will never want to go near that tree again
                                          Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
                                          think about that

                                            I have the same problem with my cats

                                            I have to anchor the tree to the wall to keep them from pulling it over when they jump on it

                                            One of my cats is 20lbs so he knocks it over with ease

                                              I just make sure I tie the tree well so it dosn't fall
                                              and let them ride it as long as they want.

It's very annoying buying lights and spending the time to put them back on the tree, and fixing all of the branches, day in and day out.

                                                    had cats for ages, grab him out of the tree just dump him on the floor, same with getting on the kitchencounter etc, keep doing it, you gotta train him, just like a dog, otherwise theyll make your life hell and back. Takes a while but they gotta understand whos the boss, dont do the cant climb the tree hunny line then feed him, cats are smart theyll walk over you otherwise.

                                                      if the cat does it mostly while you are asleep maybe you should keep him confined to one room or to one floor, whichever so he can't get access to the tree when you're not around.
                                                      you don't know you're wearing a leash if you sit by the peg all day..

                                                        very pretty cat you have. I have used foil at base of tree. cats usually hate foil for some reason. should outgrow this eventually. good luck

                                                          Beautiful cat!! Looks alot like mine. Mine likes to sleep on the branches and break the ornaments. I usually spray him with a water bottle but that doesnt help when we're not around.

                                                            they'd hate it when they'd jump onto counters and get tape all ofer

                                                            after 3-4 times they learn
                                                            This works, but I used double sided tape on the couch. That way it stays there and pisses them off quickly. After a few times, I noticed she stopped scratching there and I removed the tape.

                                                            Two-sided tape on your tree might have your cat pull the whole thing down though lol.

He has a scratching posts that he uses all the time and I clip his claws with a cat nail trimmer every 2 weeks. He lays there and purrrrrs away as I clip the nails! I reward him with a good brushing after he's done as a reward

Hopefully I can train him in a few days!! *crosses fingers*

I tried it to keep one from peeing on the floor and it just got on her paws and she tracked it over every surface in the house. Then it got on my hands and on the food I was eating and it tastes nasty! I was tasting that stuff for a week.
