we have recliners but never move until we know where everyone is - it was a nightmare when goose and binky (rip) were small. they used to like sleeping up in the back.

That's horrible - poor baby  :'(

My mum has a sofa with a recloner at one end and her cat, Shelley is always under there. I have mentioned before that it is dangerous.

I was on a training course at the RSPCA in Halifax on Thursday evening and the manager told us that someone couldn't find their kitten and she told her to look in the recliner chair cos they like to hide in places and only recently someone sat in their recliner and when lent back the kitten was squashed and killed in the mechanism part at bottom.  :'( :( :hug:
