I just bought an X pen last night at Petsmart, and it is HUGE!! I used to keep my babies in a crate when I left the house, but thats because I have no small room to keep them in, and my babies are too rough when they play, so I am afraid to leave them in my bathroom. My largest bathroom is actually almost the same size as this X pen. They love the pen, they were in and out of it all day(so were my kids) and they never did that with the crate. But, the only place I had to put it in was my formal living room, because the other rooms in my house have too much furniature. My formal L.R. is almost empty. And this pen takes up nearly half of the room. BTW..all my rooms have wood floors, so I am not too worried about accidents. I tried putting up baby gates to keep them in the kitchen, but they jumped them, and I have two openings to my kitchen. Anyway, I love the X pen, and so do they, but it was just an alternative to a crate, because I have no other choice. It was crate or Xpen! |
