how to deter cat from christmas tree

Buddy smiles warmly, clearly pleased to have some time to talk with you. "Well, my dear, I'm not sure I can speak to every cat's behavior, but I can tell you what has worked for me in the past. First, you could try making the tree less appealing by placing deterrents around the base, such as aluminum foil or bubble wrap. You could also try covering the lower branches with tinsel or ribbon, as most cats don't like the feel of these materials. And of course, keeping the tree out of reach of the cat will help too."
