Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / November 2004Great big scratching post
If you don't think cats can dominate a household, we've had a gap in our living room ever since we moved a comfy chair into the dining room because the cats wanted it in there (it takes too long to explain). This week we noticed a beautiful restored chair in a local upholstery repair shop. It was on sale at a discount price, so we bought it and set it in our living room. Two of our cats (who'll remain nameless) strolled in, spotted the chair and made a beeline for it. You could read on their furry faces what they were thinking: - "Aha! A big new scratching post!" We quickly covered it with a sheet and headed for the stores to find a chair throw for our purchase. No luck. So we bought one on the Internet. It'll be delivered on Friday - for about the same amount we saved with the discount on the chair.

Are you sure they didn't think "big new bed"? > > If you don't think cats can dominate a household, we've had a gap in > > our living room ever since we moved a comfy chair into the dining room [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > > bought one on the Internet.

When we returned from shopping for a chair cover, we found Sophie curled up asleep on top of the temporary sheet over the new chair. But no clawing...the sheet's too gooshy for that pursuit! > If you don't think cats can dominate a household, we've had a gap in > our living room ever since we moved a comfy chair into the dining room [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > bought one on the Internet.

I have several very nice chairs; hand made of solid oak and covered with very nice upholstery by a local furniture maker. All three chairs plus a cherry wood dining room set were given to me and dear heart by the future MIL. All are covered with bedroom sheets to keep the cats from scratching. It breaks ones heart to see all that gorgeous furniture covered by tacky flower pattern sheets. On the positive side, the sheets are flannel and the cats LOVE to snuggle in to them to get warm - especially now 'cause the heat-pump died last week! :)jemifur Mr. Pumpkin, my heart-of-my-heart cat, has discovered my right leg and knee soft cast to be a wonderful scratching post. I do not feel the same way about this venture so it is a short lived exercise every time he tries!

Actually she seems very fond of my chair. She sleeps on the seat the first part of the night (seats warm from moi). This AM at 5:30 she was on the floor curld around my detachable footrest. Sweet, but odd kitty. Suz Macmoosette Thank Heavens There's Only One =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= Waiting for inspiration.
