When Pete first joined us, Skip and I reluctantly gave our favorite footstool over to him.  It was large for his 9 pounds and he really enjoyed laying on it while we ate dinner and used it as a step up to the window ledge where he could look at the window.

Over the months, as Pete has grown to 32 pounds, he has begun to hang over the footstool and found it difficult to arrange himself in a comfortable position.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Parents to the rescue! Skip found a larger footstool – actually a hassock.  Kathleen recovered it with sturdy fabric. 

Pete checked it out as we let him know that the new “stool” is his.  It took only a few minutes until he made himself at home. He now happily hops up to his special place when we call out, “Pete, stool!”
