Bean Surveys Her Empire from Her Ottoman

More than just about anything, Charlene loves to perch.    She prefers being on things rather than under or inside.   She just likes to feel in control of her environment, so when Santa delivered on ottoman this Christmas, she was thrilled.

See. 

She loves it up there.

  1. I'm curious Bean, was the ottoman actually addressed to you, or did you commandeer the thing like most of the furniture in my house has been. I have a papasan chair that essentially is a very large cat bed now.

  2. Wonderful choice! My name is Emme and I am the proud owner of three ottomans. One on each floor and the 3rd on the stair landing.

  4. Bean looks so very satisfied. I love that, and I especially love that her little white toes (with bonus toe fluffs) are showing. :)

  6. Well, I guess this will have to do! I am sure Bean told Santa she wanted a throne, but he must have gotten confused!

  7. When I was visiting my parents I bought a small dog bed at a store for $10 as a gift for my neighbors who watch my cats when I'm gone. When I got back my cat Pepi loved it so much that I had to get a second one. She's asleep in it right now. I got a third as a gift for one of my friends with a pug.

  9. Charlene is beautifully displayed on her new upholstered ottoman.

    Space to sprawl when no camera is around, space to observe her charges before they become too 'mature'

  12. Lovely! My Charley has two "cubes" that he uses to survey the birdlife from his two favourite windows. I'm sure Bean will make fine use of her new ottoman!

  18. Clearly it was designed to enhance your most beautiful features, Miss Bean. How can each picture of you be more delicately exquisite than the one before? Yes, I know, it's a feline thing.
