I believe Charlie sent us a sign. He was a huge couch potato and would always get up there even though Lynn did not want him there. Got to admit I am guilty of allowing him to stay there many times when I caught him up there. He also loved our bed, not when we were in it as we do not allow that but any other time if one could not find him, just go to the bedroom and there he'll be. Well if the couch was off limits, you can only imagine the bed! Jack on the other hand never ever got on any furniture. A day after we lost Charlie, I found Jack up on the bed . That was the only time he ever did this and unfortunately he followed his brother two months later.
