False economy

Awwww Neesy! It's hard I know - although we don't let Roscoe on the couches because, well, he's flippin huge and then WE would be the ones on the floor so I have gotten used to having our cuddles on the floor. Sounds like you won't get to enjoy the new couches much either

When Marlin was surrendered to rescue (I was his foster mom for 5 months), he came with a comforter. I was told he knows he is only permitted on the comforter -- on the bed, sofa or floor.

Almost a year later, I am still lunging his darn comforter around for where-ever he wants to sit. He picks a spot and woofs! until his comforter arrives. He was well trained; and now he is training me!

I know what you mean. I use a large throw that covers the sofa & take it off for company.LOL.

When I got my new sectional a few years ago the first thing I did was put the cats up on it to check it out. Yeah it's frequently covered in pet hair but I don't care. Love me, Love my pet hair. lol

Somewhere in Bella Mae's past, she was taught not to get on the furniture. I have spent 5 years trying to get her to sit on the sofa! She will finally sit with me when invited as long as I pet her. Scruffy has trouble getting up there so he's satisfied with the floor most of the time. But I can't keep the cats off. And I'm too old to sit on the floor.

My solution: Slipcovers
