Cat Christmas Is Real. We Have the Pictures.

Trees, lights and boxes make Christmas the purrfect holiday.

These Cute Cat Christmas Pictures Will Melt Your Heart

Christmas was made for cats. With bushy trees, shiny balls, blinking lights and tons of boxes, of course, it was.

Our furry friends love hiding underneath the tree, or climbing it as high as they can. If they make an ornament come crashing down, even better in their book. They also can't resist dangling decorations. You may be annoyed, but some of them really do look like cat toys.

Cats get as excited about the holiday as humans do. Don't believe us? These adorable cat Christmas pictures prove it.
