My boyfriend said I shouldn't put any blankets or anything in with her because she can still pee on it and the blanket will absorb.. Does that sound right..... Sorry a little worried being that she's 9 months already so I'm starting from scratch......
I would put a blanket in with her for the first day. Then, when you let her out, check the blanket to make sure she hasn't soiled it (a sniff check will let you know). If she hasn't, then keep using it, if she does, go down to just bare floor. Yes, it's nicer to have a blanket to sleep on, but keeping her on the floor is not cruel and she'll eventually get the hang of her 'den' and not soil her bed so you can put a blanket or bed in for her once she understands that.

Toys, yes. Definitely. You want her to have something to do while in there.
