“So what’s going on here?”
“We are putting the legs back on the couches.”
“Okay. Why are you doing that?”
“You are well enough to use your stairs to get up on them.”
“That’s great. How about jumping off?”
“Oh no, no, no. No jumping off. Use the stairs.”
“You guys keep working. I need to do my Yogi. Downward facing dog.”
“Your form is excellent.”
“Upward facing dog.”
“Oh, come on. Not even close.”
“Yeah, you’re right. How’s this?”
“Much better.”
“I was so busy with Yogi I missed the entrance of the fuzzy white.”
“It looked like you were into it for sure.”
“What’s this white thing?”
“A device to keep you out of the dog house.”
“I get it. It protects the white fuzzy carpet. ”
“Right. Keeps us both out of trouble.”
“Sure feels good to be back to normal.”
“I see you have tried making a nest on both couches and made yourself comfortable.”
“Sure have. Wanna get that light?”

Whether human or animal, getting old is no fun, John. Like you, we arrange the sofa (and house) for our dog and cat. On the not-so-good days, my dog considers me his hydraulic lift.

We did that maybe four months ago with no announcement so you would have missed it. We could have kept them down low but for the fact that ole John was having difficulty getting up out of them. 😁 We have ordered more steps to prevent her from jumping up or down. Thanks, Linda.

Does she use the stairs to get off? Eos has two sets on the one sofa; she slowly and with great effort uses them to get up. Descending? She always jumps past the steps and always lands awkwardly before limping away. I seem to recall Trevor was the same.

She does use them to get down. The problem is there is only one stair per couch so she will jump down if the stair isn’t right where she is. We have two more on order.
