       Richelle Fast was excited to enjoy the Christmas with the newest member of the family, but as soon as the tree arrived, Twigget decided that it belonged to her and her alone.

       The playful moggy also has very strong opinions on how it should be decorated.

       Richelle said: “She won't let me put any ornaments on the tree.

       "She thinks she is the only decoration the tree needs.

       "She will jump up into the tree and try to bat the ornament out of my hand.”

       Twigget enjoys spending hours in her festive new climbing post, where the black cat almost entirely blends in.

       Richelle, of Minnesota, US, snapped a photo of Twigget in the tree, but when she looked back at the photo, the cat was almost entirely camouflaged.

       She said: "I like seeing these kinds of pictures, and sometimes it takes me a while to find the cat.

       "So I thought it would be fun and cute.

       "Twigget definitely likes to hang out in it and she will run over to it if it looks like anyone else is going to mess with it.

       "I figure, if I were a cat, I'd want to climb the tree too, so I let her have her fun."

       Richelle shared the funny photo on Facebook to spread holiday cheer.

       One commenter wrote: "I don’t know if this is weird but I felt the need for this picture. Makes me so happy."
