the only cat on this planet who could not care less about dangling things. No attraction whatsoever. She does, however, love to climb. Last year towards the end of the season I found her nesting in the middle of the tree. She didn’t hurt anything. This year I just made sure the trees were solidly in their stands. She’s only 10 labs and if she stays near the trunk all should be well.
