Along with new (new to us) lounge chairs, I bought four chairs to go around the dining table. We haven't had any chairs there for about a year. They're grey material and cushioned with wooden legs. They're in good condition with no stains.

I'm just hoping the cats won't regard this furniture as new scratching posts.

It doesn't seem to matter how many things I get for Jellybean to scratch he always wants to go after something he's not supposed to,  the trim around the doorway to the kitchen is his favorite :-\

I bought a tablet, a OnePlus Pad 2. I quite like it.

So naughty, is it wooden trim? I'm guessing it is.

It's mainly Kira that's the problem. He still scratches my chair even though we got some scratching cardboard for him. He loves it and will sometimes even sleep on it (the cardboard). I just remember when I got my computer chair - within 24 hours Kira had made very noticeable scratch marks on it.

Yes it's wooden,  Jellybean isn't as bad as some of the cats we used to have,  one loved a wooden leg on one of my work benches and made it halfway though it.

A screen protector, case, and keyboard for the new tablet. Thinking I'll use it in place of my laptop when travelling. I tried this kind of setup ten years ago but it was too early.

^ Is the keyboard small?

My god the two seater was hard to get through the front door. It's extremely big and heavy. But Kayleigh and a guy from the Salvos got it through by turning it on its end and then tilting it.

It turns out that it's a lot wider than the old lounge.
