| I dare her to climb out of this! Here is a link to the ex pen I ordered for my little Holly, who seems to think she is a cat and can climb her way out of, or into, anything! I'll let you know how it works out. I should have it by Friday. http://www.amazon.com/Richell-94115-Pet-Playpen-90...

| How high is that? If it's under 34" I bet she can. Buddy would have no problem getting over that! |

| It seems awfully small. No room for water dish, bed and pee pad and much more expensive than the metal ex pens. Couldnt you just put a sheet over the top of the metal one? I did that when Zada was a baby and it stopped her from trying to climb out. |

| It is about 3 foot square, should be just big enough for the amount of time she spends in there. The ones we have now are either 3 or 4 foot square. I set them up to be about 2 x 6'. I have watched her. She climbs the metal ex pens. She cannot jump that far, at least not yet. With the plastic, there is no place to get a foot hold to climb out.

| pen I used to board Yorkies..a serious climber can jump up in the corner, hook their two front legs over the edge and pull themselves out...if she is not a jumper you will be okay...make sure the bedding is very flat..a bed with sides will be used to stand on and a jumper can get out... |

| The new pen is not yet here. I put the soji screen on top of her ex pen and blocked off any potential gaps. I left for a few hours, came back and darn it. She still got out! I can't figure out where! or how! She must have a star trek transporter "Beam me out, Scotty". From now on, it is locked up in the crate, at least until the new expen arrives.

| So Far, So Good! The pen arrived. Super easy to assemble. It is just big enough. Poor little Holly is very mad because she can no longer climb out, at least not yet. I'm crossing my fingers, toes, paws and anything else I can find to cross!
