Monday's pets on furniture
Mon, 17 May 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, your name and a brief description can be sent to desiretoinspirekim@hotmail.com and PLEASE don't send me closeups of your pet!)
P.S. There are more adorable pets after the jump!
"This is our 10 year little chihuahua cross Romey that we rescued from a puppy mill 8 years ago, they used him as a stud to make more little dogs. His name was Romeo when we first brought him home how unfortunately appropriate. He's one handsome little guy snoozing on his favourite spot."

"This is my Weimaraner, Lincoln on the couch in our living room. He's not really supposed to be up there, but he loves watching traffic go by. And how can I resist that face and those ears!"
- April
"Meu nome é Magda e moro em Ribeirão Preto. Aí vai uma foto de um cantinho da minha sala com minha gatinha Bella, de 8 meses. Ela adora ser fotografada."

"Attached is a photo of my dear rescue dog, Harry!! He's a 3 1/2 year old Jack Russel terrier. He's sitting on a vintage chair from a thrift store, painted black and upholstered with Schumacher's Gainsborough Velvet."
- Geyer
"Here's a pic of Bianca resting on our couch!!"

"This is my 2 years old French bulldog Iggy (in tribute to Iggy Pop) with his old friend the giant sea-turtle : he hesitates between Eames and Stark chair."
- Dominique (France)
"Gertrude is a smaller-than-average English Bulldog with an underbite, a best friend named Lois, and a distinctive snort. Her hobbies include watching HGTV, having her belly rubbed, and riding in the car. Gertie does not know any tricks, but she loves to make people laugh and eat lots of cookies."
- Meghan
"Meet Lola, my 4 month old Ragdoll kitten. When she’s not following me from room to room like a second shadow, she likes to jump up from my Barcelona chair onto this mirrored table to get a really good look outside."
- Margaret (Toronto)
"I've attached one of my favorites of our cat Otis. This picture is totally him, arrogant and royal. Pain in the ass. It was taken on our front porch, his favorite place to sun, but only May through September because we live in Fargo, ND. The rest of the year it’s too cold for his royalness."
- Deb
"This is my pup Penny Lane showing off the vanity bench I upcycled this weekend."
- Amber
"Our cat, Stig, loves small spaces for curling up - trays, tables... Smaller the better."
- Katherine
"This is Nala on her favorite piece of furniture, a lazy day in the sun!"
- Danielle
"I just love the Pets on Furniture posts -- my two beagles just love furniture - they think the floor is for the dogs! The first picture is at my parents house where the two are often found bunking on a purple overstuffed chair. The bottom dog, Oscar, hates having his picture taken. However, I was able to capture Oscar lounging on an ugly (rental home) but comfy sofa (second picture). They make my days joyful and help me to stop and sniff the roses, and grass, and whatever else is around."
- Lisa
"This is Kophr (pronounced "Copper"), my sister's beagle, on my estate-sale-find chair that he loves jumping up on to peer out the front room window. He also jumped up when he wanted to show my two big dogs that he, in fact, had the high ground. ;)"
- Cassi
"Hi, my name is Sandra and this is my dog Masha. Masha is a mixed-breed dog, and we are from Belgrade in Serbia."
- Sandra
"Here is my french poodle pup Rishi. Somehow he has come to the conclusion that our Pier 1 Daybed belongs to him and him only. So the result is this."

So cute. I love these photos every Monday
That little English bulldog with the overbite asleep on the pillow is the cutest thing I have seen all day.
As always, they all are cute. I especially love little Romey is looks so peaceful laying there.
I adore this feature, such a great idea! Lola the ragdoll looks like she's prepared her pose for maximum prettyness!
today's pets on furniture is awesome! I love some of the chairs. This feature always makes me wanna buy a pet.
I really think you should start a separate blog for the pets on furniture - it can get a bit annoying after a while seeing all these animals sleeping on sofas...
I love the pets on furniture mondays (even had my lulu in one ages ago...I felt like a proud parent).... anyway, I think it's awesome and a sweet bonus on top of all the other great interior shots we get through out the week. Who can resist those cute little furry faces??!!
It's amazing how cute animals look on furniture! I LOVE Gertrude! We could be friends, I like HGTV and cookies!
I showed Penny that she made the cut and now she's acting like such a diva :)
Thanks for the Monday morning pick-me-up!
The ragdoll reminds me of my own... I have a seal point ragdoll just like yours... its funny because ragdolls always look so awkward from that age onto a year old... like weird looking monkeys.
Oh these are so cute, I love Lola the Ragdoll; she looks almost like my 5 month-old Ragdoll Leo :) And she has the same habits too!
