chair recommendations?

[ursula]

I need to buy a computer chair. In fact, five minutes with the OSHA website suggests that I need to buy a chair, a desk, a keyboard, a flatscreen monitor, and maybe a mouse substitute, but buying a chair and improvising a footrest seems like the place to start. (I've been using one of the heavy green dining room chairs that alaric gave us years and years ago, and my heels don't touch the ground.) Anyone want to recommend a chair? It should be comfortable for short people, and you get bonus points if it looks like it belongs in a living room rather than a cubicle.

But my cats would be sad!

I think I'm missing some context here. You do still have a lap when sitting on the ball. I personally think it would be funny to watch a cat try and curl up on one :oD.

Our cat Martin will jump off your lap if you tense your legs-- for instance, if you're playing a game and reacting to attacks-- so constant balance maintenance would probably be too much for him.
