ANyone know where I can get a good playpen type thing for mine? Something that includes the protective floor mat?

Thanks
 
I use a pop up ball pit I got from early learning as an indoor playpen.

I cover the floor of it with towels and fleece my girls love it. If you do get it don't try and fold it down again just take out the poles at the corners and flatten it as this saves a lot of stress.

thats nice, but I'm looking for something that already has some type of cover on the bottom already... makes it easier
 
anyone else know a site where what i am looking for is?
 
That ball pit is a really good idea, might have to invest in one myself. At the moment I use one of the metal outdoor runs from P@H inside, but it is a pain, as has no floor, so need lots of layers of paper, waterproof sheets and fleece to porotect my floor. As there is a built in floor in that ballpit, fleece and towels would be fine.
Do you think there would be any way to rig up their water bottle on the side somehow, mine spend most of the day inside in their run in bad weather (most of the time it seems with this weather!), and they always spill the water if it's in a bowl on the floor!
 
I have a "Trixie T-run". You can google it and see if they sell it anywhere near you or if it can be ordered. There are others, you can also do a search for puppy pens and see what you get.

It has a waterproof floor, but you still need something absorbent on top, no matter what because otherwise the piggies (or in your case piggy) would step around in their own wee.

A few pictures of my run in use. It's used as a holiday cage at my mum's

and, Scrumpy, it has a hole for the waterbottle :)
 
The ball pit is fabric so you could make a hole for a bottle.
