Among the great things about the community is that many members seem to be pet lovers. In reality, in many photographs, it looks as though the pets reign supreme from the household. Only call them HRH, for His or Her Royal Highness.

Growing upward, pets in my household were always royal; we discovered them stealing our favourite spots on the couch, curling up beneath the covers and essentially ruling the roost. We simply never could get the heart to say no to those adorable faces.

Let us examine the typical day of a furry Royal Highness round the house.

With a wave, HRH lets you know who is boss the the sun climbs. There’s no starting your day without a tummy rub and a nice, long, purr-inducing scratch. You might find a lively paw at the eye.

This royal puppy certainly doesn’t want to have in your way as you scramble to prepare for work, and will simply take a seat onto your luxurious sheepskin duvet. HRH will make sure it stays warm for your eventual return; heaven forbid your bed becomes chilly while you are out for the day.

You’re gone! Time to test out the chaise longue and texture like 19th-century royalty.

Just another day in the life of Their Royal Highnesses, moving from 1 lounge spot to another as the hours tick by. Another nap from the built in dog bed now? Sure, why not? Thus far, they have had just two.

Royal pets not rule the roost, but silhouettes of the comrades get worked into the decoration. By early afternoon, the lighting is just right to respect the chosen wallpaper.

Hooray, you are home for a lunch break! Yes, HRH knows you have been hard at work all morning, but the sofa is a nice spot while you pay bills on the kitchen stool.

Time for a quick stroll around the neighborhood. Royal Highnesses do not shower by hose; they refresh by outside pet shower basking in afternoon sunlight, naturally.

You need to go back already? Oh, man. HRH will merely have to sit down a velvet throne and ponder your absence.

Time for a gathering of Kitties Who Lunch. Eating on the floor is beneath them; they prefer your classic chair reupholstered in celestial cloth. Worry not: Royal Highnesses are meticulous about cleanliness.

Do not forget, HRH needs solitude! Thus, hide the litter box within a wall nook.

A run around the neighborhood may have worn this Royal Highness straight out. Better provide some love.

You’re home early in the work! Time to capture a fast movie. All these HRHs assume that since they are smaller, they get the front row.

Oh, you are throwing a dinner party tonight? HRH needs a host or hostess chair even without partaking in preparation, believing cuteness alone is sufficient to win the honor.

Sorry, but no guests are leaving this toilet with washed hands until HRH gets a rest. Do not even think about turning this faucet.

HRH heard you’d prefer some music for your own dinner party and will look at your orders.

Occasionally, HRH may require the very best seat before the fire, no matter a room filled with guests.

Whew, the dinner celebration wore this Highness straight out. Off to bed. Your bed.

The day after the celebration, HRH may experience a small hangover and will recover in the typical manner: a day of lounging.
