Monday's pets on furniture - part 2

If you'd like to send me photos to include in next week's "pets on furniture" post, please ensure your photos follow my 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 that you want to show off...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. Photos, your name, location and a brief description can be sent to desiretoinspirekim@hotmail.com and PLEASE don't send closeups of your pet! Thanks!

Charlie, our 2-year-old Cavalier King Charles, just loves our new wingback chair.
- Alice (Murrieta, CA)

This is Savannah, our 15 year old beautiful rescue cat perched on one of her favorite chairs (it's centrally located - thus she can track our 19 month old's whereabouts at all times).
- Ashley (Jersey City, NJ)

This is Portia cosying up on the couch with a crochet blanket and some cushions.

This is Tigre, my 1 year old Bengal. He follows me around the apartment and gets his curious little self into just about everything; including my photographs :).
- Marie-Louise (Vancouver, BC)

I'm sending the picture of my cat Feio (it means "ugly" in brazilian portuguese) he's a lovely, fluffy gentle old fat guy with just one full function eye, one ill leg and a huge need for love. I adopted him about 3 years ago and I think he is about 13-14 years old right now. He almost doesn't get to climb furniture because of his leg, but he absolutely loves sunbathing in my set of white poufs. It is the one thing, other than my lap, that he thinks it's worth the effort.
- Karine (Porto Alegre - Brazil)

Here's a sweet picture or our greatly missed Mainecoon kitty cat, Kennedy, lounging in an Overman pod chair which he adopted immediately upon it's arrival in the house! We had to let him go to pussy cat heaven Jan 8 2011. You can see a little tribute video I made in his honor here. We still miss him dearly. He was such a character and such a good kitty cat. The Overman pod chair has also moved on to a new owner in New Orleans.

This is Memphis - our 7 year old boxer.  He isn't allowed on the white chairs, so he likes to get cozy on the rug.  While he's not laying around, he spends his time keeping watch out the window (while sitting on my pillows!).
- Danielle (Baltimore, MD)

This is Chewy.. she is a pug in Dublin Ireland. This is a chair from India that she has chosen to use for sleeping during the day. It is in the hall by a window so she can see when we come back home from somewhere. She hates to be alone so it's very important for her :)
- Helen C

Bijoux. One day she will be a star.
- Dori (Pembroke Pines, Florida)

Here are some pictures of our miniature dachshund, Otis, on furniture in our home in Milwaukee, WI. You can tell Otis is used to having his picture taken by his doting mother...

- Marie

This was our Great Dane FAY! She passed away a few yers ago but was such a cutie....she was like a really scooby doo: a big little dombo and full of fear! Laying on this Barok bench was really a victory for her! In ♥ memory.
- Marina (The Netherlands)

Here's a pic I took some time ago of my dog Digby on our beloved Habitat armchair (the chair was a wedding present).

Here's Boo, having a break.
