LOVE LOVE LOVE- If you foster this is the playpen!
AMAZING! Dont hesitate to buy this! So I have been around my fair share of play pens for animals, as I have volunteered at no kills shelters for almost 15 years now. I have always been a bottle baby foster as well, meaning I take in orphaned kittens and feed them around the clock every two hours until they are old enough for adoption (side note do not try to take care of an orphaned kitten if you dont know how they are super fragile. You cant feed them on thir back, have to stimulate them to use the rest room,and keep their body temperature at a certain level). I have been able to try different ones that the shelters had, plus I have had a few myself. I moved to a small town that has only one humane society, meaning the funding is almost none existent. I knew I needed a new playpen for my fosters. Kittens will stay contained until about 1 month and then they are 2 year old kids for like the last month. They love to get into everything, exploring, crying when your not around, all that fun stuff. This thing was so perfect! It opened right up, super easy to attach the bottom and top (if needed). The thing is a perfect size for what I need it for. The quality is really good, which mattered to me. I have in the past had kittens rip these things up so fast. This one was really good at holding up, plus the structure is very solid. The carry case and ease of it all makes it easier to let them explore a bit as they get older. I can rest assured they are safe and in one place, they tend to get lost or stuck and then cry. They can see me so it helps them go to sleep, but gives them ample room to run around. As you can see in my pictures, I have a little box, toys, mini cat tree scratching post, and food all in there. They even have their heating pad under the blanket. When I am away I put the top on so I know my cats wont decide to jump in. Overall, I should have ordered my own and this one a long time ago, would have saved me a lot of wasted time on trying to track them down and going through cheaper ones. I also have fostered puppies and injured animals, this thing is great for that as well. Any dog over 20-30lbs could jump out without the top. Also for traveling this is a great portable crate, I will be using this when we camp! Cant say enough about the quality, the size, the functionality, and even the EXTRA pockets!
