Ya know...there was a day when we all...well, some of us......used cloth diapers for our human babies, and no one thought much of it.

I know I did, and was quite upset to have to use paper/plastic disposables for my second child due to lack of laundry facilities. Back in that day, they leaked horribly except for Kimbies, were quite expensive, and my child could only wear one brand because the plastic would break his skin out in a horrible rash.

I have a couple disposable pee pads down for my fur babies at the moment...who are still acclimating to their new lives with us, but they rarely use them because they mostly go outside.

I do like the idea of washables...if mine decide they prefer indoors over outside, and since I used cloth diapers, I would have no health qualms about using washable pee pads. I'd just remove all the solid waste, and soak them a bit in pail...or the washer's soak cycle...of vinegar and borax water, wash them in hot (my washer heats its own) water, borax, washing soda, and laundry soap (like all my other laundry), with bleach if they are white, and put vinegar in the rinse cycle...same as I did with the cloth diapers.
