The Tree and Decorations Avoid tinsel if you have a cat, it can be irresistible but harmful if ingested. Secure it so it won't fall.  Animals can be tempted to interact with a tree so make sure it won't tip and do any harm to them (or your home). Block the water Christmas trees sit in.  This water can contain toxic chemicals. Keep wires, batteries, and hanging ornaments out of reach.  There's always other ways to decorate - you don't want your pet chewing on wire that could hurt them. Don't leave any lit candles unattended.   Guests and Parties...
