This month we’re offering a Moderncat fave, the new Slant pet stairs from Urban Pet Haus. These stairs can be really helpful for older pets who have difficulty reaching the bed or the sofa. The dark zebra wood finish is perfect for a modern interior and the powder-coated metal frame is both sturdy and sleek.
Urban Pet Haus is developing a carpet tile kit that can be added to the Slant stairs. The carpet kit will include FLOR carpet tiles and special adhesive tape for attaching the tiles to the tops of the stairs. This will be quite useful for pets who need a little more traction.
To enter the monthly giveaway, make sure you’re signed-up to receive Moderncat updates via email. If you’re already getting the updates but you’d like an EXTRA chance to win, please leave a comment on this post. The drawing will take place on October 31. This giveaway is open to international readers who are willing to pay the extra shipping. Complete details on the monthly giveaway here.

This would be great for our cat, she just got diagnosed with Hepatic Lipidosis and gets too tired to jump up to sit with us.
October 5th, 2009 at 8:02 am
I can think of the perfect spot for this!
October 5th, 2009 at 8:16 am
These are awesome. We do faster care regularly and this would be great for the seniors.
October 5th, 2009 at 8:19 am
Wow! I absolutely love this design, it’s so perfect for my little fuzz ball and my decor!
October 5th, 2009 at 8:37 am
That would be so helpful for our older kitties.
October 5th, 2009 at 8:48 am
My old cat would love it!
October 5th, 2009 at 8:49 am
This would be wonderful for my cat Sarabella! She is almost 17, and along with having mild arthritis, her circulation is not as good as it used to be. So, many times after she has been asleep on the bed, her back legs take a bit longer than the rest of her body to regain full use, thus she limps around for awhile and has trouble jumping down from the bed. How happy she would be to have some stairs to make her day a little bit easier!

My cat would love to have this…it takes her a couple tries to make it onto the bed.
October 5th, 2009 at 9:13 am
So handy and looks great.
October 5th, 2009 at 9:13 am
One of our kitties, Kia, is not a big jumper so this would be perfect for her to get up to our high bed for some good snuggle time.
October 5th, 2009 at 9:17 am
oh ya meow meow
October 5th, 2009 at 10:03 am
great idea!
October 5th, 2009 at 10:30 am
Love the stairs. They would make a great gift to my parents. My old kitty back home is having trouble getting up on the bed.
October 5th, 2009 at 10:33 am
What a great design!
October 5th, 2009 at 10:36 am
Tomasito would love those steps, there isn’t a night that he doesn’t sleep right next to me and this would make his life so much easier!
October 5th, 2009 at 10:38 am
those are gorgeous
October 5th, 2009 at 10:49 am
puts our human step ladder to shame.
October 5th, 2009 at 11:12 am
These would be wonderful for my boy Jefferson who has severe arthritis in his lower back. He loves to be on the bed, so this would make getting up and down so much easier for him!
October 5th, 2009 at 12:29 pm
my old-fat-kitty would like this so she can get up in the bay window with out help.
October 5th, 2009 at 12:46 pm
These stairs are SUCH a good idea! My poor kitty with his bad hips would love this!
October 5th, 2009 at 1:12 pm
This would be fabulous for my cats! Love it!
October 5th, 2009 at 1:22 pm
What a modern look for pet stairs. This would be great for my 2 precious kitties, one w/ FIV, the other a bit overweight and having trouble reaching my high bed. They love to spend their days sleeping on opposite sides of my bed.
October 5th, 2009 at 1:29 pm
It’s nice that these stairs are much more modern looking than most. I’m glad they don’t have tan carpet glued to them!!
October 5th, 2009 at 2:21 pm
this is such a great idea. much more sleek and modern that most pet stairs. thanks for the chance to win! >^..^< meow
October 5th, 2009 at 2:29 pm
Awwww my Jellybean would love such an awesome set of stairs. She is a 15 year old kitty who can’t get up on the bed or chair on her own anymore without Mama’s help, otherwise she still loves taking walks on her leash and playing with toys. These are awesome!
October 5th, 2009 at 2:43 pm
I’m not sure if the cats would love this, or hate the fact that the dog could sit with them whenever she pleases… I think this is great!
October 5th, 2009 at 3:01 pm
What a wonderful prize contest!
Our older cat would appreciate these
stairs…..
Thanks! Cindi
October 5th, 2009 at 3:15 pm
I love these stairs so much. My geriatric guy could use them without compromising his style!!! My fingers are crossed this time!
October 5th, 2009 at 4:13 pm
Much nicer than the cardboard box I have sitting next to my bed for my poor cat to use to get up to the bed.
October 5th, 2009 at 5:01 pm
chic
October 5th, 2009 at 6:36 pm
I’d love to get this for my small kitten who can’t get on the bed and my senior Maine Coon who is slowly having more difficulty getting up. Looks beautiful!
October 5th, 2009 at 10:08 pm
My youngest cat just turned one year old. The others range in age from 9 to 12. Two of them of overweight and have a little more trouble climbing up on the furniture than I wish they did (they’re on diet food). I would love to have these steps for them.
October 5th, 2009 at 11:46 pm
nice clean lines.
October 6th, 2009 at 12:11 am
Wow, I would love this for my kitty Max. He limps and has a hard time getting on the bed where his three cat friends are. I have tried a ramp but it stresses his front paw and boxes. I think he would love this. Thank you for designing it.
October 6th, 2009 at 3:57 am
good for dachshunds too!
October 6th, 2009 at 6:19 am
I love these stairs! There are lots out there, but these are not only functional but attractive. My three cats are 8, 13 and 14,hopefully with long loves ahead of them. But jumping is already harder for the older two.
October 6th, 2009 at 7:16 am
I have five elderly cats that have to use chairs to get up to their beds and stuff, so this would be awesome for them!
October 6th, 2009 at 7:17 am
this would be great for my 16 year old Siamese who can no longer jump up on things!
October 6th, 2009 at 8:04 am
This was my favorite of the designs they had to choose from – it’s very sleek…love it!
October 6th, 2009 at 9:17 am
This is exactly what my 9yr bichon needs to get on my bed.
October 6th, 2009 at 9:52 am
These would be great to win–we have a chiweenie who has a back problem, and could really use this help. The cats would probably just ignore them, since all of them do very well at jumping!
October 6th, 2009 at 11:00 am
My 15 year old Persian, Jackson, would love this. Like all my cats, Jdackson was a rescue and the couple that “bought” him had all 4 paws declawed!! After a few months, they simply decided they didn’t want a cat and planned to have him euthanized. Thank goodness someone called me so Jackson could have the life he deserves. He is very dog-like in that he meets everyone at the door and wants to sit on everyone’s lap for lots of petting.
October 6th, 2009 at 11:40 am
These steps are absolutely gorgeous! Our three kitties are getting pretty old, and they could sure use some help stepping up onto the couch these days!
October 6th, 2009 at 11:42 am
My wife and I LOVE these Slant Pet Stairs, and we know that our kitties would, too! Thanks for hosting this great giveaway.
October 6th, 2009 at 3:26 pm
One of my catsis a senior and this would help her so much getting into our bed at night.
October 6th, 2009 at 11:54 pm
I think this is something any cat, young or old, would like.
October 7th, 2009 at 4:51 am
The stairs are beautiful, and would be great for my kittygirl.
October 7th, 2009 at 10:05 am
my chairman Meow would love it…..
October 7th, 2009 at 10:54 am
My kitty Taco would love to have this! And it would look perfect in my mid century Portland house
October 7th, 2009 at 11:46 am
How very cool!! I just joined your email list.
