3-D MANCAT MONDAY BEFORE CHRISTMAS!

It's Mancat Monday and time to show you how the mancats of the house interact with the Christmas environment.

Dante likes to sit in the wing chair next to the Christmas tree and just enjoy all the ambience.


This is a better picture of the Christmas tree from top to bottom. We get reflections of it in the windows on either side of the tree, so it's almost like having three Christmas trees at once!


This is a picture of our dressed-up mantle from a rather odd angle (I was lying down at the time).


This is the centerpiece on the mantle -- our Santa with cat. It wouldn't be Christmas without him.


Here's Dante lounging atop one of the Christmas presents. It's nice and tall so also affords a view out the window!



Dante also seems to favour this particular arm of the loveseat. This time he's not facing the wall at least. He likes to be around another favourite Santa of ours. He gets all excited just thinking about when the real one will be here. Only a few more nights now!


Dante in wide-eyed wonder! The anticipation is killing him.


And here's Dylan, finally, sniffing around under the coffee table in the living room.


And checking things out from the foyer! Is that Santa at the front door?


Dylan also likes to perch on that same present. It's a good location to scout out the tree and perhaps get a little nosh while you're at it.



And then, a little expedition underneath the tree. Dylan's checking out which presents are for him!


Mancats get just as excited as anyone else about Christmas! It kind of spoils their tough image -- but hey, some things are just more important.

The mantle is gorgeous--we love nutcrackers here! Don't worry about your "tough" image--even mancats have a soft side.

What a pretty Christmas set up you have Wendy! I hope that present they like is pretty durable with kitties jumping on and off it all day! They look so nice with all the pretty Christmas decorations around them!
