It's cheaper than new knees

We ordered Lil' Jon a pet ramp so he could access our high bed. He likes to lay up there and he jumps to get on and off, which isn't good for his knees. Sometimes he'll let us help him, but not typically. So we shopped around and finally decided on this ramp.

It's easier than keeping him off the bed and even though it's expensive, it's still cheaper and less painful than surgery. It seems pretty sturdy and it's customized with the wood and carpet color of our choice, but it takes FOREVER to get it in the mail.

Lil' Jon turned 3-years-old this past February so he's still young, but the ramp will continue to keep him healthy. Hopefully he'll use it. Our plan is to line it with treats the first few times to encourage him to walk up and down it to get on the bed.
