Number two....I would think the MAJORITY of holiday family get-togethers would be unsafe and stressful for our fur-babies, anyway.

I also agree on both points. Tink had to travel with me the weekend before Christmas when my family celebrated but she stayed in her crate in the guest room away from all the children and stress.
