Hilarious Animals Failing In The War Against Furniture

We all know how furniture can be a little finicky. Fold up chairs will crush us, couch cushions will eat us alive, and we’re constantly missing chairs completely to fall on our behinds. Take solace in the fact that us humans are not alone in the war against furniture. Animals are right there with us, if not fighting an even larger battle as they often don’t know what the furniture’s purpose even is (and all without opposable thumbs!). It is miraculous that they survive at all in a house full of objects and crevices that are so inviting yet so very capable of turning on you at any minute.

To lighten your day and console your worries about who might still remember that party when you sat on that chair and you toppled over backwards, we bring you a collection of hilarious animals failing in their own war against furniture. They just can’t seem to catch a break, especially #25.

What’s not to love about a Christmas tree if you’re a cat? It’s like your own personal climbing post adorned with many fun, dangling things to play with.  Then it turns on you, and you find yourself stuck in a large, spiky, bush of death. “Little full…Lots of sap!”

It probably took a lot of work for this cat to get his head into this position. Unfortunately, it’s probably going to take even more work to get him free.  “Pleeez send help!”

“Okay. Let me explain. This chair looked a lot like my hay feeder, so I thought I’d just stick my head through it to see if I’d find any food.”

It’s hard to look dignified when you’ve got a silly chair wrapped around your neck. But this sweetie is trying very hard to pretend this isn’t happening right now. Hopefully the only thing bruised will be his ego after this mess is straightened out.

“Oh, very funny, everyone! Look, human, instead of taking my picture to post on the Internet, why not give me a hand and get me out of this water can?” It’s a wonder how this cat even managed to get himself in such a small hole.

To ferrets, a guitar looks like a perfectly fine place for a quick little nap. Unfortunately, their owners rarely agree. If only he could play “Locked up, they won’t let me out,” from the inside.

It’s as if this cat has just broken free and taken his first gulp of fresh air after being trapped by these evil blinds.

This dog does not understand why his humans like these hammocks. They seem to only offer a constricted way to stand. Meanwhile, his friend is just embarrassed to be associated with him.

We’re sure this dog has a good explanation for why his head is stuck in a mattress.  But then, again, maybe not. As the score sits, mattress pad – 1, Dog – 0.

This young bull elk does not look happy about his new antler decor. Hammocks are not something to mess with. he might have just learned the hard way.

1 husky sofa

This pup chewed a hole in her human’s couch and then tried to escape through it.  Unfortunately for her, she was just a bit too “husky” to make it all the way out.

“Look daddy. You accidentally locked me in this room, so I created my own doggie door.  Aren’t I, oh, so clever? This is one of those proud father-son moments, isn’t it? Is that why you’re not talking? Is that steam coming out of your ears? You should get that checked out.”
