My family needs a new couch, but I have pets that do gross things on the couch.

Anyone have a solution this couch double-spending problem?

Buy new couch + steam cleaner. ๐Ÿ˜…

Great idea.

Buy used couch + steam cleaner

Facebook marketplace a solid but used and well worn couch for 25% of the cost of a new one.

I'm greatly opposed to buying furniture new. Huge waste of sats

Yes, this is our dillema.

We bought a couch in 2016 for an absurd amount of sats. My wife is looking on Facebook Marketplace right now. :)

Love it

And a FB hack is to set your location to the most affluent area within call it a 1.5 hour drive radius.

Or, just train the dogs not to get on the couch. I have a dog and it knows that couches and beds are off limits.

The only solution I've found is to accept your fate. Don't fight it. Love your pets and love your couch in poor condition. Your pets are competitively compensated for the user experience they provide.

Put a blanket down in one area of the couch that is designated for doggo, then wash said blanket

Not a bad idea. We have waterproof chucks we use for the dog bed. I should use those.

We got a $12 huge pet blanket from Samโ€™s to put on our loveseat and itโ€™s the best purchase weโ€™ve ever made

Nice. I've never heard of a pet blanket.

I use mattress protectors and sheets. Mattress protector helped out a lot when puppy was still potty training. sheets are easy to wash. Both are fitted so don't slide off easy like blankets seem to.

We bought a couch for cheap just for the dogs and trained them to only use that couch.

I have a pet bed area with pads, but one of our dogs is getting to old to make it there now.๐Ÿ˜”

Only buy leather

Good to know.

My wife says the cats will shred leather.๐Ÿคฆ

Ooofff ๐Ÿ˜ works for naughty doggies not sure about cats

Who do you love more?

Train your pets to stay away from the couch
