Tom and Jerry Cartoon Christmas Tree Ornament

Ever since animators William Hanna and Joseph Barbera introduced a blue-gray house cat and a quick-witted brown mouse at the MGM cartoon studio in 1940—following up just a year later with their Academy Award-nominated December short The Night Before Christmas—holiday truces and high-speed living-room chases have gone hand in hand. The Tom and Jerry Cartoon Christmas Tree Ornament brings that seven-Oscar Golden Age animation energy to winter evergreens across six selectable contour-cut clear acrylic designs.

Each numbered variation captures a distinct slapstick or truce moment between the duo. Style 1 opens mid-chase as Tom—dressed in a Santa cap and red-and-green knit scarf—lunges across the white-striped hood of a cherry-red vintage muscle car decked out with a grille wreath while Jerry dashes ahead beneath the bold red-and-yellow TOM and JERRY title. Style 2 calls a temporary December ceasefire, stacking holed golden Swiss cheese wedges, twine-tied glass milk bottles, and red yarn balls into a Christmas tree where Tom props his chin in his paws beside a cheering Jerry above a timber plaque reading HAVE YOURSELF A MERRY LITTLE CHRISTMAS.

Swiss Cheese Holiday Wishes & Shatterproof Acrylic Construction

Fans of Jerry’s lifelong pursuit of midnight snacks can select two cheese-centered designs. Style 3 places the smiling mouse in the snow between twin star-topped evergreens wearing a holly-trimmed Santa cap and red snowflake scarf as he holds out a ribbon-wrapped cube of Swiss cheese above a crimson banner reading ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS CHEESE. Style 5 turns the snack itself into the centerpiece, crowning a giant golden wedge of Swiss cheese bearing the TOM and JERRY logo with a plush Santa hat, brown reindeer antlers, and glowing multi-color string bulbs.

The remaining two portraits bring classic cartoon comedy to the tree. Style 4 dresses Tom in a full fur-trimmed crimson Santa suit and buckled black boots as he tiptoes through the snow with one white-gloved finger pressed to his lips while Jerry peeks out of the red velvet toy sack over HERE COMES SANTA CLAUS. Style 6 tangles a grinning Tom from shoulders to paws in glowing multi-color Christmas bulbs inside a bell-hung pine wreath while Jerry laughs and holds the end bulb above MERRY AND BRIGHT.

Because each ornament is laser-cut from flat, lightweight clear acrylic within an 8 cm (approx. 3.1 inches) footprint, it hangs safely on lower pine branches without bending needles or shattering like glass if brushed by curious kids or household pets. A pre-drilled top eyelet and included twisted gold hanging cord allow instant placement on a family tree, a child’s bedroom hook, or a car rearview mirror, and a quick pass with a soft, dry cloth keeps the fade-resistant colors bright. Families putting together a playful December activity bundle can also pair this cartoon keepsake with a 2026 brick ornament advent calendar for daily holiday building.
