Did he act like it was your fault?

Betty 'took' to sleeping on the table during the hot weather.
This is not something I agree with, but she is 13, was hot, and I knew it would only be for a 'time'.
Somehow, she managed to fall off there in her sleep, so I put cushions on the chairs, and put a large piece of thick cardboard on the table for her to sleep on.
This meant, If I caught her sleeping too near the edge - I could move the cardboard (and her) further from the edge, without disturbing her :-D

Now it's colder, she's found a pack of 9 toilet rolls on the living room floor (put there when unpacking shopping) is much more 'suitable' :-|

The bookshelf is behind the sofa where I sit. There are not books on the top shelf (I am still colouring the ones on the other shelves) so Jacky Milburn has taken to sleeping up there.

Last night (as I was colouring) , a great weight fell upon me.

Yes, Jacky had stretched in his sleep and had fallen off.
