|   crate problems 
  Is the crate for daytime large enough to hold a little bed as well as a piddle pad, food and water?  We used a travel bassinette for our little one, and he had room to move around, eat, sleep and still piddle.  Shobi has now figured out how to climb out of it, so we have moved on to confining him to a rabbit hutch on stilts for his bedtime crate (he is housetrained so he can run around during the day).  The rabbit hutch puts him up on the same level as our bed, and he likes to be able to see us at night.  
 If your little one is confined all day, perhaps use a bathroom so there is more room for him to run around and still have room to sleep, eat and do his business.
 
 Good luck!
