Gideon and the Couch

Yes, I'm one of those people who lets the family pet sleep on furniture. Granted, he must be clean, and preferably smelling just bathed. He's not opposed to camping out on the floor peering out the front window, or nestled in his bed next to the faint whirring of the refrigerator. He does, though, love him a good couch (and the ease of being able to wash slipcovers makes me happy).
