The Fabulous Cat Bed

I live in a house that is 100+ years old. It needs a lot of work done. Honestly, it needs ALL the work done. One of the main issues with it is that our floors are really close. In most rooms, whatever top flooring is right directly on baseboards. The lot is slanted and some of those rooms are really close to the freezing ground. It would be beneficial if those rooms were south-facing, but of course, they're not. My roommate's bedroom is on that side of the house and during the winter, his floors are really cold.

To combat this, he's experimented with various combinations of rugs, blankets, and pillows to keep his feet warm when he's at his computer desk. Before you suggest houseshoes and socks, trust me; he already has those on. The cold seeps through socks and shoes.

A while back he bought this really thick funfur black rug, hoping the depth of it would keep his feet warm. It didn't work as well as he wanted it to. 

The rug IS useful though. Milliecat has adopted it as her glamour bed. The rug is now draped into a basket and Millie lounges and poses in there like it's her job. She looks fabulous and seems to believe she is. 

I'm glad she is finding joy in it. I think it's keeping her warm as well. Oh. And I would take a picture, but Millie is very UNphotogenic so it wouldn't do the reality justice.
