FAQ
Senior Mobility Questions
Is this checker veterinary advice?
No. It is a shopping and routine-planning tool. Limping, pain, sudden weakness, injury, or major behavior change should be discussed with a veterinarian.
When should I consider a ramp instead of stairs?
A ramp often makes more sense when a pet is heavy, hesitant, stiff after rest, or dealing with a tall sofa, bed, or car entry point.
What home changes help senior pets most?
Lower-impact access, non-slip surfaces, supportive rest areas, shorter sessions, and predictable routes often make daily movement feel easier.
