    No, because one of my cats loves popcorn and she'd be up there nibbling and eating away! big grin

    I did it about 3 years ago in hopes that the birds would pick off it afterwards. I strung it up in a tree and they never touched it.

    They really don't work well as decorations for my trees.

    I don't think my cat would ever eat popcorn, she will eat some Cheezit crackers once in a while but usually she only wants to eat meat and pure meat, if it's been altered, like meatloaf, she will not touch it.

    I never tried it. It seems like such tedious work.

    And you get poked with the needle plenty of times, I know that from experience. Though this year I've been lucky and only done it twice.

    I was thinking that too, Super. I guessed that was a "side effect"!

    Naw, I'd rather eat it than string it.

    Tried it a few times. The cat ate it. One year when my daughter was first mobile I caught her standing very close to the tree. Yep. lol

    Reminds me of the cartoon Rupert when Nick Jr. used to air it, anybody remember that show? In a Christmas episode, the pig's mother had peppered the popcorn strings so he wouldn't eat them.

    I never have but I imagine those kernels falling off the string, making a mess on the floor.
