She was hanging on in a corner of the pen by her front paws, and her little back legs were swinging back and forth trying to get a foothold. It was actually pretty funny looking! I had to put a tarp over the top of the pen until the top arrived.

haha... i can imagine that little one caught in the act just hanging there... lol. too bad you didnt get a picture that would have made a good card! haha

just remember whatever they CLIMB out of,, they JUMP or FALL down the otherside!!! Trixie is our Houdini,, i purchased a Large wire enclosed crate for when i need it,, it folds up compactly for when not in use

Thank you for all your stories and replies! I'm glad I'm not the only one with this problem! Does anybody have a picture of an x-pen? I keep hearing about it. Is it made of metal or plastic? What I ended up doing was buying a plastic shower curtain, and used plastic clothes clips to keep it in place around the fence. This has worked for me so far!

The picttures you showed of your baby climbing out of the pen.... THAT is an x-pen...... I also used a shower curtain with clothes pins to keep Rainbow from climbing out as well...... What a cute lil spider monkey you have.. Welcome to YT!

When I have to I put Cooper in a kennel big enough for a shepard !!! hes only in there when I am going to work. He doesnt seem to mind it at all .

i use a xpen i got from tractor supply for lily may. it is 3ft high, so far she hasn't tried to climb out. that is only until she is potty broke. she also has a wire pen under the desk in computer room. that is going to be her get away spot when alot of people are here or little kids that wont leave her alone. i want her to have a place where she feels safe. here are pic of her pens she will go into them and take naps.

That looks like Coopers kennel ! I call it his condo. It it right next to a recliner so he even has a bed on top of it . He likes to lay down on top of it during the day.

I am so glad Hot Rod hasn't figure out how to climb out of his xpen or over the baby gates. Out little girl did figure out to jump on top of her crate and onto the side of the xpen, fortunately it was the side where the wall was!
