| Can she hurt herself. Little Bit can't get on anything without steps and I don't really leave the steps out all the time because she has a habit of using the steps to get on the couch but then jumping off. BUT now, she has decided to try to climb by getting in between two objects, chair, ottomon, etc. and just use her neck and shoulder muscles to drag herself up. After hearing all the stuff about the vulnerability of their neck area, this really worries me. Does she have sense enough to know if she is hurting herself and not do it? I mean she really strains and will use her feet on one side and her head and neck on the other to climb. |
