    I can totally sympathize with you. My Dusty is going to be 17 next month and has had arthritis since she was about 13. We've had her on Cosaquin (a glucosamine/chondroiton) since then and an additional omega 3 called Duralactin Feline Liquid. Both seem to have helped her for years. She's now currently losing her battle between severe arthritis to the point we're using experimental (on cats anyways) pain meds and she also has recently been diagnosed with late stages congestive heart failure.

    I do hope your kitty can get on some supplements that will help him feel better and get around as long or longer than Dusty has. My thoughts are with you both.

    RIP Dusty July 2 2007 RIP Sabrina June 16 2011 RIP Jack July 2 2013 RIP Bear July 5 2016 RIP Pooky June 23 2018. RIP Josh July 6 2019 RIP Cami January 6 2022

    All the Tribe are sending very special good vibes to your dearest Michael.
    We are wishing for pain free joints and more KFC as a reward!

    phesina, that is such a sweet offer and I am sure all the Found Cats will love having their own stairs! They seem to realize they have a fan club here at PT and show a lot of love for everything anyone sends them. That is so sweet of you! Those Found Cats are such lucky babies to have Gary as their human...

    Gary, of course we will be praying for Michael and you, too! Norton(15) and Molly(14) are getting the Cosequin mixed in with their food. I think it has helped them with some stiffiness they have from time to time. Norton and Molly also enjoy their heated cat bed(well, so do ALL the Clan Cats, they take turns in it). That was so nice of phesina to offer you the steps!!
    Nine is Fine!!

    Gary - you might get a better deal if you go to a hardware or lumber place (Home Depot or Rona), if you can get a ride.

    They have scrap lumber, and if you know how high Michael has to climb, they might put one together for you cheap or even free!

    Also, construction companies make wooden steps before the concrete ones are put in at houses....maybe one of those would work!

    Make a phone call or two - there are good people out there and I think you will find one!

    hugs! to you and dear Michael
