Anyone know a good place to get steps for pets in the UK? The sort of thing to help them get onto furniture and window ledges easier. Or any suggestions of what else to use?

Yes, not so strong in his back legs. His Mum ( non - diabetic )needs help too though!
Awww....poor babies
I have found these SL http://www.petsathome.com/shop/easy-step-pet-stairs-by-pet-gear-(online-only)-13603
Can you not just rearrange furniture so they can use the furniture itself (if you see what I mean). My 14 year old can't jump on the windowsill but I have an armchair by the window so she jumps on the seat, then the arm, then onto the windowsill. And she makes similar piecemeal moves in other areas to get on the back of the sofa. I think the less she does, the less she will be able to do, so I try to make sure she has to make some kind of effort. I realise tha may not apply to your cats though.
I was ging to buy one for my blind cat but she used my legs to get up on the sofa, abit painfull at times but couldn't be helped
No, haven't tried those. Are they pills? The cats are not very good with pills, even in food.
Awww thanks!
Thanks for the links to the Easy step at Pets at home and Argos wildpumpkin and Scarlethand, and your suggestions Lippincote.
I know what you mean about encouraging cats to jump etc. There is a dining chair near one window ledge which the 2 of them use, so I leave it there. Sometimes 1 of them blocks the route though. So need another chair ( or something smaller preferably ) at the other end as they don't like making way for each other. Sometimes 1 will jump from the chair and over the other cat, probably kicking them in the process. Then there's squeals and hisses! Cats eh? Won't just get out of the way!
