Speaker 1 (00:00):
Please keep steeper in the din with dangerous day. You
want to pet proof your tree, what do you do? Well?
Pets and Christmas trees can be a bad combo. Here's
some tips to keep your dog or cat safe this month.
First of all, get an artificial tree instead of a
real one. Fake trees don't have the same appealing scent
and they don't shed, which is good because pine needles
can actually cause diarrhea or other issues if they're eaten.

(00:23):
Plus fragile ornaments. Hang them on higher branches. Attach ornaments
with ribbons or twist ties makes them more difficult to
knock down. Those metal hangars can be a choking hazard
for your dog or your cat if they try to
eat them. Use cord covers or organizers to keep electrical
wires out of sight. Pets may try to chew on
the wires or get caught in them, knocking the tree over.
I always keep the lights off when you're not at home,

(00:44):
and cover water containers if you have a real tree.
If you're not confident your dog or cat, we'll leave
the tree alone. Put a pen of fencing around the
base of the tree to add an extra layer of protection.
Reminds me of the dog that drink all the water
out of the Christmas tree and the moon via Christmas
vacation and tree ended up so dry it went up poof.
I've seen that Deeper in the Ta Well. If you're

(01:06):
trying to decide on a new color to embrace next year,
look no further than your morning movement. Pantone revealed their
color of the Year for twenty twenty five. It's brown,
calling it a specific shade mocha moose, somewhat a lighter brown.
Some people are calling it a wind for quiet luxury,
and others are saying it looks like poop, especially the
color of the poop emoji. For the record, Pantone describes

(01:27):
it a warm brown hue imbued with richness. It nurtures
us with a suggestion of delectable qualities of chocolate and coffee,
answering our desire for comfort. Now, maybe that works for you,
but others are commenting. Some people are less excited. One
person compared it to sad beige. Others said it's too boring, dull,

(01:48):
or neutral, which is the same descriptions I frequently get
for this show. To me, they can for another episode
