Samantha is a doll! *must...kill...bed...monster!*

Amy sounds like she's going through the same process as my CH Diva. She has learned to eat lying down, yowl for help holding her up while she uses her box, and not to climb stairs. On the other hand, she has tremendous "upper-body" strength and uses her front legs to haul herself onto couches and chairs. This is fairly recent. It sounds like you are doing very well with Amy.
