Senior Yorkie Talker | Searching for a safe playpen Has anyone used a childs playpen for thier furbabies? I am trying to find one that would allow enough room for my girls to play safely in. Any suggestions on what to look for and where to find one?! I don't care for the cages/kennels/play yards that are out there. My older girl can jump and I don't want her to injure herself. They can also get "hung up" in those types (past expereince )

| I've used a baby playpen until Dolly managed to jump out of there, somehow she learned how to climb up the net and then jump LOL Then I got her one of those plastic ones with a door, it looked a lil safer than the wire ones to me, plus I liked the fact it has nothing vertical so Dolly cannot climb LOL Pet Playpen - GW Little

They used to be so good with babies, but, they were much younger when my youngest niece was born. Thanks. Sheila | |

| Have you tried something like this? I got mine at Meijers and only paid $80 dollars on sale. None of my munchkins can get out and it is big enough for two and you can add panels to it. |

| Did you know it folds down flat? All the panels accordion up so it fits in a small space. I take mine with me when we go camping and the furkids go in there. |

| I found a similar model at Walmart by Summer Infant. I was drawn to this model because of the actual gate. Other models say in the title "gate" ,but there isn't a gate. It's about $65 and I think it's worth it considering the fact that you don't have to climb over or struggle w/ the yard to get a side open. You can even have the option of opening the gate into a crate. |

| I tried to use a baby playpen and the problem is that if they have an accident, it soaks into the removable floor. I purchased a Home 'N Go Pet Pen and love it. It has a plastic mat that velcros to the bottom and a cloth cover that goes over the mat and is washable. It also has a zipper front door that folds up and velcros so they can go in and out, if you want. I find my girl goes in there to be alone with her toys during the day. You can google it to find the best price. This site shows different sites and their prices: Pet Playpen - Pet Supplies - Compare Prices, Reviews and Buy at NexTag - Price - Review

| I am not sure if this is what you are looking for... .....but at PetCo I found a snap together play yard that so far has worked out well it is four feet high and very sturdy, I raised my two Chows in a baby's playpen but after a month or two it was wrecked. Good Luck. |
