Try to get things that he jumps off of away from him to prevent further vet visits.
Thank you for the prayers. We have low padded stools they jump onto from the chairs. We are going to add another lower cushioned pad to jump onto from the low stool...so it's like steps.
Hubby's going to make steps for the bed. (something I've been nagging him about)
Caleb does wait now, thankfully. He's so miffed when dad carries him up and down stairs and not me. Loves when it's me.
