F. Domesticus Tannenbaumii (rare)

So the next time this crazy cat climbs up a christmas tree, how

should I frame the shot instead?

That's the funniest thing I've seen on this site in a long time! I have a few of these myself. I think, considering the subject, you did a fine job of framing. There was only so much you could do without "coaxing" the cat into a different position. The only thing that bothers me is the stray christmas light. It kind of takes away from the "naturalness" of it. Good shot though.
