Monday's pets on furniture
Mon, 5 Apr 2010If you'd like to send us photos to include in next week's "pets on furniture" post, please ensure your photos follow our basic rules: First, the pet must be on a piece of furniture. And said piece of furniture must be clearly visible in the photo, so it takes center stage rather than your pet. (Think of it more of a photo of a great piece of furniture...and your pet happens to be sitting on it). And second, the photo must be of decent quality. If it's dark or fuzzy (from a camera phone) then it may not make the cut. Thanks! (Photos can be sent to desiretoinspirekim@hotmail.com and PLEASE don't send me closeups of your pet!!!)

"I was playing around with my camera this weekend trying to document my living room for my blog (before I change up stuff for the 10,000th time :-), and I happend to take this shot. My photography skills are limited to point and shoot, but I managed to capture my cat Charlie resting on one of my favourite pieces of furniture - my grandma's retro armchair. Charlie loves to snooze up there, while keeping an eye on the turmoil of the street below..."

"Cletus knows she is not supposed to be on the couch. This particular couch is in my front room, the "Cat Free Zone", but sometimes I forget to close the door and I just know that she will be in there curled in a ball, pretending that I can't see her snoozing. In this pic she knows she's been caught! Sometimes she gets evicted but if she looks at me cute enough.. she gets to stay until Dad gets home."

"My husband and I adopted 8 year-old Whiskey from a shelter a year ago, and he's 17 lbs of fluffy love! This week he discovered the comforts of sleeping on the back of the living room chair. I bought the pillow case on a business trip to Africa, and it is hand-painted."

I ADORE this blog idea! So, so cute! Thanks for sharing. My three dogs are just like furry humans in our family! I am a designer in Myrtle Beach, SC, and my blog is called, "It's So Fabulous!". I was inspired by your "Pets on Furniture" blog to write 2 blog series that I will be posting on my site over the next 2 weeks called, " What I Learned About Design from My Horse" (about my horses, of course) and "Doggie Design". Stop by and let me know what you think if you get a chance. Thanks for your fabulous blog and inspiration! Love it to pieces!!! Kimberly
Oh what cuties. So lazy and peaceful :)

All of these are just too cute. Too cute. Makes me want to get a dog :-)

I love all the dogs, but "Gus" would have to be my favorite....what a great photograph !!!
Thanks. Nice post. I am planning to buy some new furniture for my home as well.

What a wonderful website! A happy house is a house with a furry animal peacefully snoozing away. I can personally testify that Oscar the cat is fabulous....if I were him I would pose in front of the mirror as well!
