CLEARLY KITTY / TREE HALO

Keep the Christmas magic. Change the first step.

A discreet ring of clear, textured panels around your tree stand helps discourage cats from starting a climb at floor level—without a bulky fence around your Christmas tree.

THE PROBLEM

For cats, the Christmas tree looks like an invitation.

One curious paw. One low branch. And suddenly the holiday decorating becomes a daily negotiation.

Illustrative before and after Christmas tree scene, showing a curious cat and clear Tree Halo panels around the base
Illustrative concept, not a controlled before-and-after result. Cats respond differently; some may still cross the panels.
Before: the familiar temptation

Your cat spots the ornaments and heads straight toward the tree.

After: rethink the approach

Place clear textured panels where floor-level climbing typically begins.

THE IDEA

The climb often starts at the base.

Tree Halo places rows of raised plastic points around the stand. The texture is intended to make that area less appealing to stand on, encouraging some cats to turn away before they climb.

Designed to blend in

Clear panels let your decorations remain the star of the room.

Targets the floor-level approach

No scent, battery, spray or freestanding barrier.

Honest expectations

Not a physical fence. Cats can jump over or cross it.

SEE THE MATERIAL

Clear sheets. Raised points. No roll to flatten.

Unlike a rolled mat, each Tree Halo panel arrives as a separate flat sheet. Its textured surface is meant to be uncomfortable for a cat to stand on, while the clear material keeps the under-tree area visually light.

Each panel measures approximately 16.5 × 13.4 inches (42 × 34 cm).

These are raised plastic points, not a barrier around the trunk. Supervise initial use and avoid walkways.

SIMPLE SETUP

Three steps. No tools or adhesives.

Everything happens at floor level, right around the tree stand.

Three illustrated installation steps: set up the Christmas tree, connect the clear panels around the stand and add decorations

Set it up before the gifts go under the tree.

The installation image shows the complete process. Here's what to remember:

1
Position the tree.

Set your stand on a stable, level surface.

2
Lay the panels, points up.

Connect the edges around the stand so the coverage fits your floor plan.

3
Bring back the holiday look.

Style gifts around the base while keeping access to the stand clear.

NO CUTTING  •  NO PINS  •  NO TOOLS

For real trees, lift a panel to reach the water reservoir and replace it afterward.

WHY THIS APPROACH?

A different answer to the Christmas-tree problem.

Rather than trying to change the smell of the whole room or hide the tree behind a fence, Tree Halo focuses on the space beneath it.

Compare the everyday trade-offs.

Approach What to consider
Sprays Odor, repeated application, and variable results.
Foil Highly visible; some cats are curious about it.
Fences A larger object around the tree that affects the look.
Tree Halo Clear, reusable panels with no scent or batteries. Some cats still cross them.
SIZING & KITS

Choose how much coverage fits your tree.

See each panel's measurements and the available sheet quantities at a glance.

Start with your stand, not just your tree height.

One kit contains 12 sheets. Two kits provide 24 sheets; three kits provide 36. More sheets can give you flexibility for additional coverage, multiple trees, or other spaces.

How to choose

Check the space around your stand and plan how you'll position the panels. The area you can cover depends on the stand's shape, the floor layout and how you arrange the sheets—not tree height alone.

The kit descriptions shown in the graphic are general guidance, not a guaranteed fit for every tree.

01 / HOLIDAY SETUP

Still feels like Christmas.

Keep your tree looking festive with clear panels on the floor.

02 / PRODUCT DEMO

See one cat's reaction.

Real-world demonstration, not a promise of identical results.

03 / PLACEMENT

Focus on the base.

Arrange the panels around the stand; this is a placement schematic.

Demo and lifestyle illustration only; no fabricated customer testimonials or controlled before-and-after claims.

BEYOND THE HOLIDAYS

The tree comes down. The sheets can stay useful.

After Christmas, individual panels can serve as temporary textured boundaries in carefully selected spots around your home.

Furniture

Use only on a secure, stable area where a panel can't slide.

Plant areas

Keep panels clear of walking paths and pot access.

Counters

Only where appropriate, away from food prep and edges.

Never put panels where people or pets might accidentally step on or trip over them.

REALISTIC EXPECTATIONS

Worth a try. No miracle claims.

Each cat reacts differently. Tree Halo is intended to discourage a floor-level approach, not physically block a cat from reaching the tree.

Good to know

A good fit to try when your cat approaches the tree from the floor and you prefer an understated setup.

Know the limits

Some cats may step across the panels. They will not stop jumps from sofas, shelves or accessible branches, or prevent chewing.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Before you put the panels down.

Will it work for every cat?

No. The surface is designed to be less pleasant to stand on, but individual cats may cross or jump over it.

Will it prevent my cat from jumping into the tree?

No. Tree Halo is intended for approaches from the floor. Place your tree away from sofas, shelves and other launch points if possible.

Is the material safe for cats?

The raised points are plastic and designed to feel uncomfortable under paws. Supervise initial use, avoid placing mats in traffic areas and discontinue use if your pet shows signs of distress.

How big is each panel?

Approximately 16.5 × 13.4 inches (42 × 34 cm). The panels are separate flat sheets with connecting edges.

How many sheets come in a kit?

One kit includes 12 sheets, two kits include 24, and three kits include 36. The appropriate quantity depends on your planned layout and desired coverage.

Do I need tape, pins or tools?

No. Position the flat sheets on the floor with the raised points facing up, then connect the edges around the stand.

Can I water a real Christmas tree?

Yes. Carefully lift a sheet to access the water reservoir, then put it back with the points facing up.

What if it doesn't work for my cat?
