I am moving to a house with multiple internal stairs (15) and wondering if my 14 year old cat will learn to, and manage to, use them.

She has never lived in a home with stairs before. She shows signs of aging - is careful when jumping down from the chair she sleeps on, doesn’t jump up on the bed almost ever now and I suspect it is because it is too high and not easy for her, etc

Has anyone faced a similar move and had their elderly cat refuse to use the stairs? I hope mine won’t be confined to downstairs because she won’t use the stairs.
