>>What is a......Simba! (Answered like on Jeopardy)
Yes, you both are right. It's Simba, who has arthritis and can't jump very high. My sister, Karen, felt so sorry for him trying to jump on my bed that she went home and got on Craig's List, looking for steps for Simba. She loves Simba and hated to see him trying to jump on my bed in his condition. So she was absolutely thrilled when she found the stairs. She threw the cover in the washer and then brought the stairs over to him and taught him how to climb them. After a couple of times practicing, he was great at climbing those steps. But sometimes forgets that he has them. It's so funny for both of us to watch him, when he looks at the TV stand, thinking about it being too high to jump up to, then to see the "Boing" look in his eye and then he goes around to the other side of the bed, to where the steps are. He just zips up those steps like they are nothing.
I've never seen the other cats use them; just Simba. They'll probably start using them when the TV stand becomes too high for them to jump up to.
Karen doesn't have any cats of her own. Her guinea pigs are her 'kitty cats'. She has the most spoiled guinea pigs that I've ever seen. When she was small, her pets were two ducks, Daffy and Donald, and a salamander. Then she got a puppy.
