I now allow Papa on the couch. (She’s a good snuggler.) Here is her approach:Step 1: Sit on floor politely, without being asked.
Step 2: Inch closer. Rest chin on couch and give best soulful gaze.
Step 3: When soulful gaze is ineffective, stealthily place front legs on couch. Avoid eye contact.
Step 4: When invited, lift back legs slowly, slipping off couch a few times as if unsure of footing.
Step 5: Make self comfortable.
Yes, I took some of the photos at different times. But trust me, we do this routine daily. I think she skips some of the steps when I’m gone.

I love the "avoiding eye contact" photo.

Did you reupholster your couch? Wasn't it blue or am I remembering it wrong?
That's the same couch (it has always been that sagey green color). Ginger poked holes in it with her toenails), so I had to flip the cushions.
I don't know anyone who has ever been able to truly keep their pet off the sofa. How could you resist that look??? Thank goodness Papa is a good snuggler!
I REALLY want that couch. please.
