Many of our blog viewers have asked me how Kronk is handling the Christmas decorations. So I thought I would appease all you Kronk lovers out there and do a blog post dedicated to Christmas with Kronk.
*Dishtowels--We usually will find dishtowels on the floor in the mornings when we get up, or anytime we are in the kitchen making meals or snacks. Kronk will come into kitchen, get upset that you're not paying attention to him, walk over to the towel, and paw at it until it falls on the floor. It drives us crazy which is why we never hang our daily dishtowels on the oven door. The ONLY time we do hang dishtowels on the oven door is for decoration...not for daily use.
*Gifts--Kronk LOVES to help wrap gifts. This actually can get really frustrating at times. Anytime you lay out wrapping or tissue paper--guranteed--he will drop whatever he is doing and come lay or sprawl on the paper!
*Ribbons--Kronk STEALS ribbons from you. This, without fail, always happens anytime you wrap a gift. He has even got up from sleeping to come steal ribbons away from me. Again, this can be quite frustrating at times but it is just so darn cute. Look at his determined face in the following pictures.
*Christmas tree--We didn't put a tree up in 2008 because we were going to be gone and we didn't want to leave him unattended for 10 days with a tree in the house. That's just too tempting for a cat. So it has been 2 years since he has even seen a Christmas tree.
This year Kronk has done pretty well. He has not climbed up the tree (that we know of), but he has knocked off (so far) a total of 5 ornaments from the tree. That's why we put the dippy ornaments on the lower section of the tree.
Kronk does love to sleep under the tree...especially next to the light box. The box gets pretty warm so he likes to snuggle right up to it.
My favorite thing so far this year was the first night we put up the tree. Kronk would sit under the tree and look up at the lights. He doesn't do it that often now. I think the newness/excitement has worn off.
Kronk's favorite part of Christmas will take place on Christmas day and you'll see why in 21 days!

I love this post! It reminds me so much of our cat Yong when we were growing up. We still have ornaments that have teeth marks on them from when Yong played with them at Christmas.
Kronk is so cute! What a cute personality!
I love Kronk. What an awesome cat. Sounds like he keeps life interesting. So now I'm curious, what's he getting for Christmas?
Thanks for sharing Kronk's adventures with us. He looks very content by the light box.
