Attached is a picture of Sponge, the cat. While he enjoys a variety of hobbies (e.g., bird watching, dog management), his true passion is catching rays in his Hovmand Olsen lounge chair. He commandeered the chair shortly after restoration and now refuses to lounge elsewhere, putting up a good defensive game when necessary.

This is our beloved Citrouille…she passed away on March 2nd at almost 20 years old! This photo illustrates beautifully her presence…always center stage, very active (broke many vases) and more than anything, very loving and accepting of all the other fur balls that came in after her. RIP Citrouille xox. Art by Simon Rochon, table and chairs by Ligne Roset.

His name is Pixel. He is taking a Monday nap on our bed, his favorite place to sleep. His past time is playing with his toy mice and cuddling up in a warm cozy spot.

Every Monday when I look through your posts I think that my precious kitten Jellie (1.5 years old) would fit perfectly in your weekly series.

Our transplanted rescue cat, Singha, enjoying her new home in London along with her Ethan Allen leather recliner purchased in Calgary almost 10 years ago. The 20 year old B&B Italia bench (purchased from Robert Sweep in Calgary) is another favourite item belonging to all in this household.

A couple from me. Yesterday afternoon I was in the kitchen for a bit and when I can came back into the living room I spotted a row of cats in a sun beam on my Moooi carpet. It was about -30 outside, go figure. And then Lucky blending into my shaggy stool.

Thank you for sharing the photo of our dear Citrouille…in the description, we should read Art by 'Simone Rochon' not Simon, sorry about that!
Susan L. says:
What a great edition this week! Love the one with the Frida Kahl portrait. It's so artfully composed and better, I think, because the cat would not cooperate by sitting in the chair. Just like Frida lived!
Anna L says:
Wow! I have to agree that this weeks 'Pets' are wonderful. The glimpses of lovely, lived in homes. Wonderful textiles. The beautiful pets. The talent. I love the collage of Frida. My cat sits at the dining table like Frithjof while we eat, always staying on the seat and never climbing up on to the table. I hope he lives as long as Citrouille. Ah, lots of sunshine…
Bernadette says:
Loved all the photos and captions! Beautiful pets and homes! I adore my weekly reminder that there is still good in the world. Skaynedesigns story about Princess was exceptionally touching. I hope good things happen to you and Princess Rosie.
Holland says:
Wonderful pets, all. Especially touching is the story about Rosie the Rottie and her predecessor, Princess. The little fib told by the woman who took them both in to her dear, terminal sister is a true example of wisdom and kindness.

Another week of blubbering and cooing while scrolling. Such beautiful animals, all of them. POF is a 'not to be missed' part of my week.
