Sorta cool. But I wonder if cats get motion-sick?

Is a nice idea, though a bit dangerous for the pet. It would be very easy for your pets tail to get squished when rocking.

Too dangerous!!! What happens if my little pet moves the tail under and ahead the seat and I get up?
Design means the union between functionality and beauty but the root of the process starts from security.

My dog would HATE this, and me for making her sleep in this!
Nice idea but no, i dont think so!

Agree with elika, just because you like it doesn’t mean the pet will. Fail.
Probably won’t’ blend either.

Agreed.
Pet hazard!
Nice design but very very wrong to bring up that sales feature.
It will kill potential sales. Not smart – fail…

Another fail.
Use of wing nuts is not only estethically bad but also not safe.
Barrel nuts would be the hardware of choice.
It’s flush with the wood surface.

The “designer” never owned a pet. None of my pets ever liked to be rocked esp cats. And thats besides the fact of little feet getting caught under the chair.

Despite the fact that it may be risky for pets with tails, I still think that it’s a great idea brought to life in an aesthetically pleasing way.
Nice design/build.

My cat loves to rock. Sometimes in my lap and sometimes on the back of my chair. Animals know where their tail is. I think they would get used to this very quickly if they like to rock.
I agree with the wing nut comment. You want some kind of connector that doesn’t stick out either way.

The danger would be easily fixed by getting rid of the slats and making the bottom one solid piece of wood.

Great idea! I agree with KJ 4-30-2012 post. A smooth rubber cap could be created to cover the wing nuts for safety.

Make it fixed (flat bottom) and it would be a win. As a rocking chair it is irresponsible to sell

Nah, my cat only wants to sit in the chair I’m sitting in. I move, he moves, I move again, he moves again.

Imagine, a nice summers day reading a book in the afternoon sun. With Whiskers the kitten playful under our chair, when suddenly he spots something dangling from your pants…

I agree with those that said it should be a flat piece of wood – too much risk of injury to tails. My dogs would love it.
My cats? Probably not so much. I love the idea behind it, but just needs tweaking.

^ Not quite, if my dog were getting up to walk away he could get his paw stuck under the edge of the chair. If I were sitting there rocking I wouldn’t notice and rock right over his paw :c

I agree with Liz.
Even if this rocking chair’s bottom made into one solid piece of wood, the curvature of the underside of this rocking chair would be dangerous to the limbs and waggers (tails) of these domestic lovable mammals. You would be a one Sorry Guy with a Traumatic & Injured Pet.
Better if not made into a rocking chair at all. Only just as a Sturdy Chair with Box-like Pet House. Ok even if slatted like the above chair.
