I have had many kitties, so have not put up a tree in many years...too much of a career change picking up baubles every day...LOL. However, and not 'blaming' anyone for this tragic accident, but I most definitely do not trust most 'pet safe' explanations either.

My condolences to the kitty's owner...RIP sweet baby kitty.
I just remember when my cousin still lived in OR. She came to visit us for a few days and the kitty was kept in the garage. When they came home, they found kitty passed away. Found and drank anti freeze. Apparently it tastes sweet.
