The only cat that won't climb the tree. This is the kitty from Legami's Oh-Oh-Ohrnaments — plush decorations designed as the sensible alternative to glass, which in a house with a real cat stops being a style choice and becomes a practical one.
She's about 9cm across and 19 grams, with the same stretchy 95% polyester and 5% elastane outer as the rest of the range over a soft polyester fibre filling, and a ribbon loop ready for a branch. Light enough to go fairly far out along a bough without it dipping.
Anyone who has owned a cat at Christmas knows how this goes: the tree goes up, and within about ninety seconds it is being assessed as a structure. Glass baubles on the lower third are simply an offering. Plush ones get batted about, land on the carpet, and go back on the tree unharmed.
It's also the obvious small gift for a cat person, and it costs less than the card most people would buy alongside it. Pop into our Canterbury shop at 22 Burgate to see which Oh-Oh-Ohrnaments we have in, or order online for UK delivery.

FAQ
Is it cat-proof?
Nothing is cat-proof. But it won't shatter when it comes off the tree, and there are no sharp pieces to clear up afterwards, which is the realistic version of cat-proof.
Is it safe for a cat to play with?
It's a decoration, not a pet toy — it isn't made or tested for chewing. Hang it out of reach if your cat is determined.
How big is it?
Roughly 9cm in each direction, around the size of a satsuma.
Can I collect the whole range?
There are several Oh-Oh-Ohrnaments characters. We stock a selection, and it changes as the season goes on.
Does it make a good gift?
An easy one for a cat person, and small enough to go in a card or a stocking.
Care
- Surface clean only — do not machine wash
- Keep away from open flames and lit candles
- Store flat or loosely boxed so the plush doesn't crush
- Decorative item, not a toy — and not a pet toy
