My cat isn’t old or even lazy, but he’s not a jumper (he prefers to hook his claws in something and drag himself up. I was told it was a quirk his dad had.)
So I built him ramps! He has ramps to the tops of things!
…and as soon as I installed ramps he began jumping to the tops of things that had ramps.
If she can’t get up there by herself, it also means she can’t get comfortably down by herself and she can’t count on you being present when she decides she needs to, so I do understand her thinking.
When my cat got old, she couldn’t jump up onto beds and chairs anymore. So I would try to lift her up onto places she used to like.
Cat said no. If she couldn’t get up there by herself, she just didn’t want to go there anymore. Fierce independence.

I love him so much. Lmao
I believe the C in CAT stands for “contrarianism”
Cats are like our lovely nemesis I swear
