I Know it’s Not Christmas, But..........

I received this photo yesterday from our younger son. I burst out laughing. This was little Kuma, his female kitty, who spent the last year of her life and many vacations living with us.
We think she had some brain damage, but oh how we loved her! She was so odd, but so cute.
Our son once found her in a girlfriend’s Christmas tree sound asleep in this crazy position for hours. He thought she had passed away, so gently touched her. When he did, she fell out of the tree in a panicked frenzy, taking half the ornaments with her and toppling the tree.
I visit her grave in my rock garden every day.

@DianneN You're absolutely right, she's doing quite good on keeping those numbers going up
I always thought that kitties don't interact much and prefer to be aloof but this one changed my stereotype for sure.

They can sleep in some very strange positions.

Just started Christmas in July. In my TV Spectrum has in TV guide so I check because I've seen a lot of Christmas shows already. I've found Antenna TV channel, with old TV sitcoms so I watch so much old shows when a show is in I've seen already.

What did I miss?!
I finally arrived but I won't be staying long tonight because I'm tired. Just to say hello. This little kitten is adorable, as she hides

@DianneN I'm sorry. It's our 2nd elder daughter who took care of Garkitty.

I couldn't find your cat Kuma initially but found it only after reading your discussion. What made her to sleep in such an odd position and location is truly mysterious. You must be truly missing her.

I envy animals and people who can just fall asleep anywhere.

And this is why I haven't had a Christmas tree for years! I enjoy the ones at school and in the shops. I hardly ever do Christmas decorations at home, ever since my new kitty (long since departed) got the zoomies every night and knocked the tree over. Every night.

Oh and by the way, I had one cat who liked to sharpen her teeth on the cow's horns in the manger scene, and bat Mary and Joseph and Baby Jesus off the shelf. So that got put away too. She totally lost the sheep and I still haven't found it. Maybe she ate it.
