<human>: My cat, Percy, is 14 years old, soon to be 15. She's a queen in our house, to say the least. Every day she sleeps on my bed and snuggles in between my legs when I sleep. But lately, my whole family can tell that she is getting older, and weaker. She is fatter, and walks slower, and has less energy overall.

When she usually jumps on my bed when we go to sleep, now she is extremely hesitant to do so. Sometimes she will try to jump, but she will not make it to the bed, and fall off. But when she does make it, I make sure to reward her with a nice ear scratching. Anyway, my question is, should I help her onto my bed so she won't hurt herself? Or should I make her jump so she will stay stronger for longer? Or will that tear down her body faster? I usually make her at least try, and if she tries then falls off I help her up.

Summarize the given text in a few sentences.
