It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas on social media, and even pets are getting involved.

A survey of 504 Americans conducted by Architectural Digest earlier this month found that 54 percent kick-started the holiday season by setting up their Christmas tree in November, and one TikToker's tree wouldn't be complete without their furry friend sitting near the top.

On November 12, user @beanmika—an account dedicated to the cat Bean—posted a video of the ragdoll cat sitting in a Christmas tree. The clip quickly went viral, gathering 2.4 million views. While social media users were amused by the video, Bean doesn't look too impressed.

One user described her as "the grumpiest ornament," while another wrote, "Is [her] name Grinch by any chance?" However, in the video's overlay text, Bean's owner insisted the cat was "getting into the holiday spirit."

Newsweek contacted @beanmika for comment via TikTok. We could not verify the details of the case.

The clip is paired with a sound bite of Mariah Carey saying, "It's time," followed by "All I Want for Christmas Is You," the singer's iconic 1994 song.

Some commenters expressed worry about their own Christmas decorations, with one writing: "How do you get them to stop? New cat owner here, and I'm now dreading Christmas because he's ruining my tree!!"

Cats and Christmas Trees

For cats, climbing trees is part of their natural instincts. People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals advised owners to make mindful decisions when decorating their homes this holiday season.

"It's good to accept that some cats might climb on trees no matter what you do," the organization said on its website. "So do the best you can to set up a beautiful (and safe) tree, but don't fret too much if your cat decides to 'redecorate.'"

PETA offered pet owners the following advice to cat-proof their trees:

• Consider a fake tree: While real trees can be beautiful, pine needles pose a danger to cats that love to chew on foreign objects. If ingested, they could cause serious health issues. A realistic-looking fake can be used year after year without the risk.
• Opt for a smaller tree: Smaller trees are safer for felines, especially those prone to sneak attacks. If the tree falls, it may be less likely to cause injury, and it would be easier to decorate and clean up.
• Be cautious with lights: Position lights toward the center of the tree to deter cats from chewing on the wires, and cover the plug with a cord protector. Always unplug the lights when unsupervised. If a cat tries to chew the wires, it's safer to remove them rather than risk burns or electrocution.
• Avoid holiday hazards: Skip real candles, small ornaments and fake snow with harmful chemicals. Keep toxic foods and plants—such as chocolate, mistletoe, lilies, poinsettias and amaryllises—out of reach or out of the home.
