Christmas

As everyone knows we got a new kitten. I brought her home in March and so everything is so new to her. She is such a great addition to our family. It also confirms that I don't believe Ted thinks he is a cat anymore. He acts more like a dog. He listens to what you say, Ellie does not. You can guarantee that Ted will come home, Ellie does not. Ted loves treats and begs for your food, Ellie does not. Or maybe its just an age difference. Either way we knew we would have a problem when Christmas came around. Since we have Ted and experienced his first year, we knew we would have some complications. With Ted's first Christmas we learned noyt to put a tree next to any stairs. When we lived the condo we put the tree right next to the stairs and he learned to dive in it like a slide. It was pretty funny and also entertaining. This year we made sure to not put as many bulbs and nothing that could break. Ellie of course got into the tree everyday. The difference is that she would just sit in the tree until we yelled at her. She also would not stop drinking the water from the tree. Maybe thats why our tree died before the end of the year. If you tried to wrap a present you could guarantee that she will think differently. She wanted nothing more than to lay on the paper and eat it making it difficult to wrap anything.
