Cats love trees, they love things that hang and dangle, and they love shiny objects. With this said it’s not difficult to understand how your beautifully decorated Christmas Tree will seem like a wonderful playground to your furry friend. But a toppled tree will not only make a lot of mess, it can also hurt your cat, so it’s best to do everything you can to keep your curious cat away from your holiday evergreen. Here are our best tips:
Choose the right tree and the right position
If you’re having a real tree, choose one with sharp needles, like a Scots Pine, that the cat will want to keep their paws far away from. Hoover up the fallen pine needles every day, as they can cause serious pain if they get stuck between paw pads.
Place the tree somewhere away from bookcases, sofas and other furniture that the cats might use as a platform to pounce from.
Secure the tree
To make sure the tree doesn’t topple over and fall if the cats were to get hold of it, make sure you choose a stand with a wide base that can take some potential swinging. Depending on your set up, you might also be able to tie a piece of strong fishing line to the top of the tree and connect it to the ceiling.
Don’t tempt fate
When you’re at work, or in bed, close the door to the room with the tree to stop the cat from playing with it. Ideally you will be able to give the cat access to the rest of the house, but if you have to lock them in a room, make sure it’s big enough for them and that they have everything they need.
Go top heavy on the ornaments
Try not to place too many ornaments at the bottom of the tree where you cat can reach, especially not ones that are precious to you, or that would automatically break if they fell off. One idea is to get ornaments that make noises, like bells, and place them on the lower half of the tree. Not only will this potentially stop your cat from going further up the tree, you will also hear when the cat has approached, and can interfere before any damage is done.
You can also secure ornaments by using wire hangers, or plier ones that you can clamp around the branch. These will be more difficult for your cat to pull off.
Things cats don’t like
Cats hate the scent of oranges, so to discourage them from approaching the tree, you can put orange peels around the base. You can also wrap tin foil around the trunk of the tree. Cats don’t like the sensation of putting their paws on it or the crinkling noise it makes. This works better if you have a kitten or a younger cat, but it’s worth trying.
Secure the electrics
Some cats will nibble on the cables to the lights, which can hurt them or become potential fire hazards. Consider investing in pet-proof cord protectors, use duct tape to secure the cables to the floor or the wall, or use battery powered lights without long cables.
Skip the tinsel
Don’t use tinsel if you have a cat in the house. Tinsel is extremely attractive to cats, and they will pull it down and spread it all over the house. If ingested, it can also cause the cat serious injuries, so it’s best avoided.

Incorporate your dog’s Fido Nook into your Christmas homeware and transform your pet’s den into a festive haven with these seasonal decoration ideas…
Fairy lights
Everyone loves the sparkle of lights at Christmas time so why not beautifully frame your Nook with battery powered fairy lights. If using with a puppy, place the lights across the top of the Nook so you still have a lovely glow, without the chewing risk!
Mini wreath
Stick a Fido Hook to the outside of the Nook’s wardrobe door for a mini Christmas wreath. You could even make one yourself so it matches your festive decor perfectly, and add subtle puppy touches, like some decorative bones or a paw print ribbon.
Christmas curtains
If you have added a curtain pole and Fido curtains to your pet’s Nook, why not try your hand at sewing your own Christmas curtains with a festive fabric.
Christmas tree
No need to sacrifice your Christmas tree, for puppies and frequent chewers use shatter-proof or soft baubles and keep any that are fragile or precious near the top!
Fake candles
Battery-powered candles give the same warming glow as real ones, without the risk to pets! If you are concerned about chewing, keep the candles on top of the Nook.
Stocking
This super cute dog stocking is perfect for hanging up in the wardrobe ready for Santa Paws!
For the dog
Get your pup ready for the party season with a super cute Christmas jumper or festive red collar they can wear with pride.

‘Tis the season to deck the halls, trim the tree, and spoil your four-legged friends. If you’re anything like us, your holiday gift list includes tail-wagging wonders that’ll delight any dog owner and their canine companion. We’ve created the ultimate guide dog Christmas guide, full of tips and our favourite products to make this holiday season the most magical one yet.
Time to get cosy
There are few things better than curling up in front of the fire to watch Christmas movies this season. Why not make the occasion a family affair by including your furry friend in the fun? Your dog will enjoy watching some Christmas classics along with you, and even more so when they have a cosy dog blanket to relax on.
Get snapping
Getting the perfect pet pic amongst the Christmas chaos can be a challenge. But, with a sprinkle of festive magic (and bribery), you can be on your way to a print-worthy portrait the whole family will love.
The best way to be sure you and your dog are framed in the photo together is to set the timer on your phone or ask a friend to snap a shot for you. This is where treats will come in handy to keep your pup’s attention.
The sky’s the limit when it comes to ideas for a festive photoshoot. Maybe you want to get a photo of your dog and family out on a walk together. Or, why not try posing in front of the Christmas tree? And if you’re really feeling the Christmas spirit, you can even hire a professional photographer to take a family portrait with your furry friend.
From our furry family to yours
Now that you have the perfect shot, print them out and send them to family and friends as Christmas cards. If you have children, decorating the cards with glitter and stickers is a fun activity to keep them entertained, too. Don’t forget to let your dog sign the card with a cute paw print on the back. This will no doubt take pride of place on every mantlepiece.
All the trimmings
Steal the spotlight on Christmas day walkies with Omlet’s matching dog collar and lead sets. Available in a range of striking prints, these smart sets make the ideal gift for the dog in your life and are a great way to get your beloved pup looking smart when all the family arrives for lunch.
Walking in a winter wonderland
One of the best parts of Christmas is all the lights to look at – there’s always someone in the neighbourhood who goes all out with their decor!
Enjoy spending time with Fido this Christmas with a long walk to check out the decorations. They’ll be fascinated by all the bright blinking lights and holiday flair. Just don’t forget to stick to winter walking safety tips to ensure no one gets too chilly.
Christmas market adventures
If you’re near a Christmas market, both you and your dog are in luck. Since most are held outdoors, they make for the perfect day out as long your pup is well-behaved and confident in crowded situations.
Enjoy some delicious mulled wine and listen to carol singers as you and your dog stroll through the scenery. Your dog will love the new sights, smells and exercise but be sure to bring along some dog-friendly treats with you to keep them distracted if need be.
‘Tis the season to indulge
We all know that the holidays can be a time for extra indulgence. And while you shouldn’t entirely change your dog’s diet just because it’s Christmas, a few extra festive treats won’t hurt.
Why not make these healthy apple and cinnamon dog cookies? These delicious, dog-friendly snacks make the perfect stocking stuffer or after-dinner treat.
Gift giving
Whether your dog has made the naughty or nice list this year, it wouldn’t be right to deny those puppy eyes a few presents of their own. After all, it’s their mischief that makes them even more loveable. And with our range of innovatively designed products, your pet’s Christmas wish really can come true.
Want to give your pup the gift of comfort this holiday season? How about a new bed in our Mischief print? Perfect for the cheeky pup. Or there’s the Topology Dog Bed is any dog’s dream with its high-quality memory foam mattress that delivers premium levels of comfort. And the best part? The toppers for the bed can easily zip off and be cleaned in the washing machine for that fresh sheets feeling. Even better, stock up on spare Toppers – perfect for a quick change before your guests arrive
If your dog loves to snuggle anywhere, anytime, then consider getting them a Sheepskin Dog Blanket this Christmas. The warm and cosy throw can become the ultimate nap nest for any dog whether at home, in the car, or on holiday.
If you’re lucky enough to get time off from work this Christmas, make the most of it with some quality bonding time. Playing with your pup is great fun and helps you to strengthen your connection. Gift a durable dog toy that they love and you’ll have endless hours of festive fun.
Staying safe
Christmas truly is a wonderful time of year, but it does involve some things that can pose a danger to dogs. Take a read of our blog post about how to keep your pets safe during this season to make sure you keep everyone accident-free and safe this Christmas.
Omlet and your dog’s Christmas
Christmas is even better when there are pets involved. With food, fun and festive celebrations, you and your furry friend will soon be revelling in the wonder of this magical holiday by the tree. And thanks to Omlet’s range of dog products such as dog beds, dog blankets and designer dog leads, your dog’s Christmas will be made even more special with products built to delight on the big day, and last a lifetime.
