$50 for a cat coffee table book that changed my living room vibe

I picked up this big glossy book called "Cats in Sunbeams" from a local bookstore last month for $50. Thought it was just gonna be cute photos to flip through when guests come over (you know, to break the ice). But honestly it's been a total surprise. Every page has this warm golden light that actually makes my coffee table look more intentional, like I'm a person with taste. My buddy laughed when he saw the price tag but then he couldn't stop looking at the spread of tabbies sprawled across windowsills. The only downside is my actual cat keeps trying to sleep on top of it, which is kinda the point I guess. Has anyone else dropped cash on a cat book and ended up using it more for decor than the actual cat content?

You ever notice how the stuff we buy for one reason ends up being good for something Completely different? I put a bird feeder in my backyard thinking it'd be for the birds but it actually just makes my patio look like a chill spot. Same with a big blanket I bought for my dog's bed now it's my favorite thing to toss over the couch. That's just how life works sometimes. The best purchases sneak up on you and serve a purpose you didn't even plan for.

Is that blanket actually still your dog's or did you just steal it from them, @jordan184? I did the same thing with one of those heated pet pads, now it lives on my desk chair.
