Roxie has been coming upstairs to the bedroom more recently (which she never used to do. I guess she is getting braver). We pick her up and put her on the bed because it is WAY too high for her to jump onto or off of. A few months back we bought pet stairs for the couch downstairs, but she wouldn't go near them. Now they are in the bedroom next to the bed, but she still won't use them. We tried using treats and sort of goading her up the stairs, but nothing has worked so far.

Does anyone have any tried-and-true tips to get her to use the stairs to get onto the bed?
