| Washable pee pads I have some materials in mind that would make a wonderful pee pad. They would consist of an outer bottom layer that is waterproof so your floors would stay dry and they wouldn't slip easily. Inner materials would be absorbant layers and the outer top material would be one that would wick the wetness into the absorbent layers to keep your pup's paws dry. The outer material is also one that won't stain easily so they should stay clean and nice, the material however would be primarily in solid colors (is that a bad thing?). I'm putting my cloth diaper making knowledge to work and I think I can come up with one awesome pee pad to market but is there much of a market for them? What is the most popular size as well?

| Washable pee pads I would think there would be a market for them! I use the cloth ones that hospitals use and would rather have some that are nicer looking. Let us know if you make any! |

| I think you have a great idea with the waterproof backing as long as it can't be shredded and will hold up in the washer and dryer. I have a cat that will shred anything paper or plastic, or most anything in between! Personally, I like a large pad, like 2-3 feet long and 2 feet or so wide.
