| Puzzled ?? Gucci for the last few mts. will not go on or down steps any longer, I am puzzled as to why, she has not fallen so I don't understand why she is scared. Any suggestions?? What can I do to get her back into it? Thanks! Gina |

| Maybe you could..put her on the stairs and lift her paws to the next step..(if that makes sense) like as if your teaching her to climb the steps. |

| I think the treat might help or one of her favorite toys. I love the name Gucci! I also love Fendi, Prada, Dior, Versace, to bad my money won't let them love me back.

| Maizee does the same thing. She will go flying down one set of steps, but will not even dare go down the others. I guess she's too prissy to walk down the ones to the basement, so I always have to carry her |

| Maybe she just wants her mommy to pack her around the house! Try a treat, usually works for me! |
