    Bon Noel?
    Bonjour!

    Can anyone tell be how to say Happy Christmas and possibly I love you lots in French. It's not for homework it's for a joke card Le Chat Domestique et son Caractere. I'm trying to turn it into a Christmas card for my boyfriend.

    Failing this I'm going to have to write Ca va bien merci et vous? And go for the nonsense comedy. :D

    Merci!

    Yes, it is Joyeux Noël (good job on the tréma).

    What else would you like to have translated?

    Thank you, it's been sooo long since I did French. I was always better at German anyway.

    I know where the accents are on the other stuff in the question, I just couldn't find the right key stokes!

    What would you say 'the festive cat' would be?

    I don't think I'll find that in a general vocab list...

    Hmmm... "festive cat" eh? I guess you could use "chat festin" but it kind of loses the meaning along the way.

    The closet thing I could think of is
    Le chat de fête - festival cat

    But that could be nonsense in french. I always got told off for just translating the words and not the sentence if you know what I mean.
