Furniture contender
In no way does this top Spanky's squirrel, but I have a *lovely* set of Kmart dressers that would make you cringe. They sit side-by-side, and we use them as a changing table. Last month, two of the drawer fronts fell off -- apparently, the plastic, shelf paper veneer didn't hold up to opening the drawers. At least they have simple lines. I won't post a picture because I don't want the photo associated with my name online anywhere ever.
So lame compared to that squirrel.

Hat
My boyfriend was given his (dead) grandfather's hat. Its a ratty, dirty, shapeless woolen thing. It sits on top of the bookshelf in our library. I wash my hands every time I have to touch it.

The worst object in my house?
That would be me.
I am very poorly designed.
I required nearly 20 years of education to enable me to provide for myself.
I cannot see clearly without bifocals.
I cannot hear clearly without hearing aids.
I cannot walk around without shoes.
I cannot enjoy most climates without clothes.
I cannot eat most foods without cooking them and I cannot drink most water without treating it.
I require a substantial quantity of caffeine from half way around the world to wake me up.
I require frequent grooming and bathing lest I become infested with lice and suffused with bodily odors that would never afflict my dog.
I have to range far and wide to escape dissatisfaction with my location where I spend most of my time.
There is not question about it. I am the worst object in my house.

The squirrel sits on a shelf in front of books, lower than eye level so I go for months without looking at him (it's a him, I know this---lady squirrels wouldn't wear a hat like that). The tree was just a holiday thing.
I'd take a photo but that part of the room is dark and nothing every comes out very well.

My worst object is without question the CAT FURNITURE
I say that in caps because it is one of those ultra hideous carpet-covered sit-upon thingies. And this one has seen a long life. The carpet is shredded on the vertical segments and deeply and permanently embedded with cat hair on the horizontal ones. It is vile, ugly, completely un-aesthetic and totally wretched.
And my cats love it, lounge on it and generally revere it as an object of great feline happiness.
Still the fact that I hauled it cross-country riddles me with modernist shame. It's so majorly icky that I can't bear to post a photo.
But I can't chuck it, they love it too much. >^..^

Well, AzC...
...it's grey now. It was more of a greyish-oatmeal once upon a time.
As for sleeping on the latest thing, yes, my cats are like that too...coats, sweater, the clean lundry anythign like that must be guarded for fear of becoming hair-covered.
$1200 for a cat tower...not not not not happening! But these are kinda cool once you pull the ugly printed 'decoration' off of them.

Worst
The curtains in my home office are leftovers from when I bought the house six years ago. They MUST go, as I need a better backdrop for the Flying Electrolux that hangs over one of the desks.
That Electrolux was the best two bucks I ever spent, BTW...

Okay, here's mine. I found it on the street outside a school in a broken plexiglass box. It is about 3/4 actual size. It was part of an exhibit to show the danger of smoking. See the tube in his mouth, that's where the cigarette goes. Handsome gent, no?

I dunno, Spanky
It's a toss up. One one hand, your item features not one, but two dead critters.
But the curtains remind me of something that would be in an old grandma's house that chain smokes in a plaid lay-z-boy all day...
