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.

saw a vid of a cats fluffy tail catching fire from a candle years ago on the web. it went out again before the whole cat was on fire, but you know, maybe just get an LED candle.
