An addition to the Kitten Room


I have been looking for an inexpensive nightstand for my new guest room, so I went to the local storage facility's annual yard sale over the weekend.  I didn't find a nightstand, but I did find something I could not resist. Maybe I should have, but seriously, who can deny this face?


Now sadly he has had a pretty hard life up to now.. his mane is a little shoddy, his feet don't all reach the floor, and if someone knows of a good giraffe neck brace, "Raff" here really could use it.


But I have a thing for giraffes, (and turtles and polar bears) and he was only $20, so I couldn't really resist, and darn it if he doesn't look adorable in the kitten room..

I am hopefully I can keep Raff's head up the same way I fixed Happy Bear with a bit of dental floss and a needle, but the metal wire that holds it up has been disconnected from the body, so I am not sure.  Doesn't really matter because I think he is adorable just the way he is.

  7. Awwh! He is super cute! Makes for a good kitten climbing frame too! Good buy, even if you were looking for a nightstand, who needs a nightstand when you can have a large giraffe anyway?!?
