They believe she tore her ACL on her rear knee, and due to her age she is too old for surgery. The good news is like humans, both ends of the ligament heal and the pain goes away after a week. Left with a kitty anti inflammatory and kitty morphine.
Apologies for the thread drift ahead:
Is your kitty a fatty or no? If no, then some do ok in about a month (a week sounds ambitious), but some require surgery. Those that don't get surgery are generally very reluctant to jump after the joint tightens up. If they put kitteh on metacam (meloxicam), be sure to get liver enzymes checked on in a couple weeks.
She is 13.7 lbs (down from 14.5 lbs 2 years ago).

Our old tabby (now passed) has arthritis and we would take these boxes, fill them with magazines or old books to make it stable, and drape a towel on it. He would jump up on the box, stop, turn and then jump up on the chair or bed. For our bed we used three boxes as a stair. And it was free!
I tried that in the bedroom prior to buying the stairs, and she didn't use them (stable, heavy box next to folding chair). In the living room, about 2/3 of the time she jumps up on the ottoman (lower than couch) prior to jumping on counch. After hurting her knee, she continued 2/3 of the time but made a noise like it hurt.
