Do you light candles when your cat is around? (slrpnk.net)

Hiya,

Simple question really, do you light candles when your cat is around? We've newly got our cat (5 months now), but had never light a candle around here due to the possible dangers. Are your cats curious about candles when lit? I feel like the possibility of them being too curious around them isn't worth the possible risk. We haven't really got a lot of places where the cat cannot reach either. But could maybe get some 'enclosed' candleholders.

Happy to hear what you do guys do regarding this. We quite like having the occasional candle lit.

Yes, however one of our cats is dumb enough to almost light her tail on fire. We only stopped a fire by smelling her tail fur starting to burn and picked her up. Besides that one time both our cats don't try to push candles off of counters or anything
