Darlene De Beaulieu Poet Narrative

Stormy And The Christmas Tree

The  Christmas tree stands
Ready for the lights
Then some ornaments 
To place on branches
The  large ones and small

On the low branches
Ornaments are placed
Now enter- Stormy
The blubs  she bats
Slow with her front paw

The low ornaments
They are removed 
Now paws the tree skirt
Is removed  from the tree
The floor is bare now

Now she chews the branch
Shei s nudged away 
It makes me wonder 
Why stormy did this
I ponder my thought

What the reason is 
Her first Christmas tree
I ponder my thoughts
This makes sense to me
It is the first Christmas time 

She saw a Christmas tree

Bartholomew Williams December 15, 2025 at 6:54 PM Thanks for the relevant, timely write, Darlene! I had a cat growing up. Our cat used to drink out of the bowl that kept our real/natural Christmas tree moist, making the tree dry out and lose needles faster. I think many cats are simply fascinated by a Christmas tree. It sounds like you're taking some good steps to ensure a safe home, cat, and tree. Merry Christmas, and very best! Bartholomew Darlene De Beaulieu December 16, 2025 at 10:10 AM Williams ,Stormy has a slow feeder now. It is set to go off 3 times a day. When she hears the sound of the food dropping, she runs to it. Stormy is 5 yers old. She has her cute ways. Merry Christmas my friend. /Darlene/ Darlene De Beaulieu December 16, 2025 at 10:06 AM Hello Williams Bartholomew, You are welcome. I am very watchful when it comes to my cat. When I sense she is near danger, i chase her away from the area. I do not want her to be hurt or sick. Right now i am trying to find the right time to crochet. When she is awake I am crocheting she is after my wool. When i am feeding her she will not give me the chance to put the wet food into her food bowl.

William Kelii Kekaula December 13, 2025 at 8:42 PM Implement cat-proofing measures to keep both Stormy and the tree safe, such as securing the tree to the wall and using cat-safe ornaments. Cat-proof your home for the holidays. Darlene De Beaulieu December 14, 2025 at 11:09 AM Aloha! Hilo Poet, Oh, thank you for this information Hilo. I appreciate it. I will do as you told me.
