sympathy for discarded furniture

When my wife sees furniture that has been put out to the curb, she feels sorry for it. We were discussing why that is, and decided it's because the furniture can still serve its purpose, but somebody rejected it because they don't like the way it looks anymore, or they feel it isn't good enough for them anymore. It isn't the furniture's fault, though. She told me she used to adopt abandoned furniture, like stray animals.
