Does anyone know what the weird white chair is? Solved
Sorry for bad quality cropped from an old video of me exploring an abandoned cabin. The top of the chair has this some sort hole btw.

I've seen them before. Like a high backed low stool. I assume the back is so high so you didn't have to bend down to move it? Looks like a good shoe-putting-on stool!

My grandmother had one of these it was like a step stool but yeah with a high back so she didn’t have to lean over to move it

Ok that sounds reasonable i was confused about the guy saying litter box I think he thought I was talking about the crate. Also do you happen to have any idea about the loop hole up top? Thanks for the response though!

It is a step stool with a long back or "handle" so Grandma doesn't have to bend over to move it.... my father was an amature wood worker and used to make these

I feel like it's an old Ikea kids chair? That's what it makes me think of.

Is that a trashbag in front of the literbox? Did the back of the chair taper up to the point with the circle? I can't tell if that's the side profile of banquette seating or just a really low stool. There seems to be seating of the same color paint against the far wall.

Why do you smear a greasy finger over the lens before taking the photo?
To me it looks like a dressing chair someone might put in a bedroom. The seat is low enough that you can put your foot up on it as well as sit on it. The high back is so you can hang a shirt or jacket on it. It would be easier to identify what the loop is for if we could see it clearly.

I stated it was from an old video I didn’t really focus in on the chair when I was taking it

Could it be some sort of scratching post for the cat?
