RetroGeek-You have some valid and nice suggestions albiet in a humorous manner. Thanks for your due diligence providing such a wealth of tips and in a light-hearted and warm manner. As for my other point, I'll say it again, I don't know what my friend does, but I have never known her house to smell like funky cat. So she does her due diligence too :D


Tips for Living in a Small Space with Pets (aka: Don't Be the \"Smelly House Friend\")

I have a friend who has a cat, but you'd never know it. I have NEVER smelled a dirty litter box in her home. I respect people who have pets and have odor-free homes. You all are to be commended.

Elaine, beautifully done. Your furniture don't look like it needs updating, it looks real nice. I love that big, squishy, juicy couch. Oh, and cute puppers too.

I have 7 pillows on a queen bed: 2 Euro-sized, 2 standard, 2 long king-sized and 1 decorator roll. I like a lot of pillows on my bed. I also have some on my couch, I like the soft comfort of pillows, and that's about the only thing I tend to get a few extra of is: pillows.

Nice apartment, but could use some "softness" i.e. pillows, rugs, art, window treatments. I get that you don't want junk, I hate clutter too, but a little "softness" would make it more inviting, warm and personable. Thanks for sharing with us.

I say that I would have to agree with sarabryant. I would rather buy quality secondhand pieces than cheaply made furniture. I have a few quality secondhand pieces, in fact, I have a futon that was my son's before he moved out, then it was where a friend of mine slept when she stayed with me, now, I sleep on it all the time. It was not terribly expensive, but it was not cheap either. It's simply a well made futon, so much so, I had to have it assembled at my house because it's very heavy to carry in one piece. What I'm saying is, it's wise for me to buy the best of what I can afford. I'm quite sure there are those out there who would agree that would be the case for them as well.

Meg and Andy - Thank you so much for puting this on Apartment Therapy. I really enjoyed looking at your home. Your creativity is outstanding. I would have a good time visiting your home. This is more enjoyable and inspiring by far than the picture-perfect magazine homes. This is nice and nicely decorated. Oh, and Lucille is cuters :^)

Hi Kristen, I love your place. Nicely arranged posters on the living room wall. Your bathroom is so cozy and sharp, I have that same shower curtain.

I need some of these too. I try not to get hangry too often (too afraid of being told off :^( ), but still, I should keep a few of these on hand.

I would have a great time exploring that house, I think it's deliciously interesting. My style is a lot more subtle, but this encouraged me to put up a few more pictures in my kitchen ( l love kitchen walls full of pictures). Very interesting and creative, very fun.

I'd rather live in a closet. I cannot do roomies. After living with me for a while my most patient friends would want to throttle me. I'm too persnickety. I cannot justify inflicting myself on my friends. Really, it's best for me to live alone, as I have too many anxiety issues and need the alone time, besides, I'm too set in my ways.

I'm not a painter, I like my off-white walls. I read a lot of comments that are pro-painting and that's cool, but that's not me, you see, I like walls that go with any decor that I so choose. I never had a problem decorating with white walls or keeping them clean. It's about what is required to maintain the walls, which means looking at how I live, and how I might live (To borrow phrasing from above). I'd rather have pops of color from things that I love that I acquired over the years.

I sit square center (every time) on my futon in my back room, and I have a spot on my reading chair in the living room. How Sheldon is that?
