As for the stairs, I will definitely looks into the sales section here--thanks! For now, we've just lined the area around the couch with pillows and now I don't have a heart attack when she jumps off!

One more question for now--grooming. I am having a hard time brushing her and brushing her teeth. She is a little wiggle worm and keeps trying to eat the brush and the toothbrush. Any ideas? Thanks!
I don't use a toothbrush, I use my finger. Have a glop of toothpaste on your finger, make her sit for it (ie make it seem like a treat), then I put one hand on thier back and then use my finger to brush thier teeth. Just play around with toothpaste types until you find one that she loves. Harley just loves the brand you buy at Walmart, it's simple and works well.
