Giulia is very busy inspecting the tree, rearranging ornaments, generally causing no end of trouble. Why should today be any different than the other 364 days a year? Back later tonight. Cheers to Australians who are already celebrating Christmas. Merry Christmas, Julie & Simon & Wee Birdy!
It's no wonder that this is from Cute Overload via We Heart It. We can just hear it. "They'll be here any minute for the party. You can play with your Christmas mouse in a minute. Stand still, Miss Kitten." 
We couldn't resist. My Beautiful Mama & Me. From We Heart It (originally on SubterfugeMalaises on deviantArt).
Uh oh. Someone's in trouble. We hope right after this moment, the kitty was scooped up out of those fairy lights. Adorable, though. From Cute Overload via We Heart It.
Marianne Perdomo's photos are very popular, for good reason. Here is our snowflake cat, Alvar, with his good friend Humphrey. A holiday nap...looks like a good idea. Yawn.

Alvar, the blue-eyed white cat from Gran Canaria may be hiding, sleeping, or he may be indicating his preference for clean design lines. Who knows? Cats can be quite refined in their decorative tastes. They also, as our mum always said, never willingly "do" uncomfortable. It could be that Alvar has so many Christmas errands, that he simply cannot bear it. If that's the case, we completely understand. Some rights reserved
Two wonderful photos from photographer & animal rescue heroine Marianne Perdomo of Gran Canaria. She of the Alvar cat photo (A Blue-eyed Snowflake Cat), here. Marianne captures a funny scene which we imagine as holiday party gone a bit wild. (GG claims the dog started it; we're not buying it because GG is an instigator extraordinaire.) In the second photo, we imagine the after-party floops. {Follow the story about Peque, Susi & Robyn, the floopy kitties in the basket, here.) 
A beautiful Christmas gato while we're on deadline. This elegant cat, Alvar, is particularly festive with bells & red ribbons. Photo via animalphotos. Photographer Marianne Perdomo's excellent flickr sets are full of cats & various non-feline related subjects. She lives on Gran Canaria, one of our very "most want to visit" places...it's a sign. We'll refrain from jokes about cats & canaries. We're pretty sure they've heard them.
