While we frantically wrap last-minute gifts and bake cookies for Santa, our furry friends also like to play a role in the holiday festivities. Like that cat who insists on batting at the tinsel on the Christmas tree, causing more than a few ornaments to come crashing to the ground. Or the dog who gets a little too excited about the dinner table and keeps begging for food.
But at the end of the day, our companions are just happy to be included in the celebration. And it wouldn't be the same without them. So as a thank you, we at Bored Panda put together a collection of funny and heartwarming pictures that show what this joyous occasion really looks like when you have pets. Here's to them making every moment a little more special and a lot more fun.
When you're done scrolling through the publication, check out last year's version here.

You do now. The cat has adopted you. That's how we got our cat. It started hanging around our house as a kitten. We asked all our neighbors if they knew anyone who was missing a kitten and everyone said no so we took him in and fed him and yeah

Aww <3 cute. Just please make sure not to leave your cats alone around christmas trees with string lights. Sometimes they can get wrapped up in them and seriously injured.

OK, the humans need to take some responsibility for not putting that plate where an unsupervised dog couldn't get at it.

Well, they aren't called "murder mittens" for nothing 😹🤣😹 Have you considered fostering? It's just like a test drive before buying a car.
