How is the end of Animal Farm ironic considering Old Major's dream for the future and warnings to the animals?

Answer:
It is ironic considering he speaks of everything the animals want, should have, and never do: ie: not sleeping in a bed. But, by the end of the book the elite pigs are sleeping in a bed with sheets, which is different. Everything that Old Major warned them about and being changed slowly one item at a time throughout the book. Then at the end everything is just as the animals did not originally want it.
