[Philly]

The thing that is really weird about Bailey is - My sofa is just as high as the bed. She has no problem jumping up on it - especially when the blinds are up so she can look out the window and let people know what she thinks about them walking by. The material on the sofa is Micro-fiber, but the material on the footstool is leather. Maybe she gets a better grip of the fabric on the sofa.

I like the ramp idea, but I'm a senior with noone to build one for me. I was also thinking of covering the footstool with corduroy, but think it will turn her off. The older she gets, the more resistant to change she has become.
