[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve seen people post sofas from a dog friendly home that are stained and thread bare.  They claim it still has plenty of life and cover it with a throw blanket. Disgusting!  Take it to the dump!  [/quote]

I just posted a sofa my cats have destroyed the arms of.  I didn’t claim it had life in it though I just let the photo speak for itself.  Someone actually said she was interested much to my shock — I was just posting it on the off-chance I could avoid the bulk trash fee.  Nothing wrong with posting, even if you consider takers unlikely.[/quote]

You are enabling hoarding [/quote]

It’s disgusting. Have some common decency. Don’t give trash. Have some dignity. [/quote]

It’s disgusting to landfill something that still has use. If you’re honest about the condition and someone will willingly pick it up, then you’re not compromising anyone’s dignity.[/quote]

I could never in good conscience offer up trash. [/quote]

DP. A used sofa is not trash, even if the fabric isn't in good shape (I seriously doubt cats were able to damage the frame). You do realize that sofas can be recovered and it's even not that hard to DIY? Maybe the person who took it can sew slipcovers? [/quote]
