I had a package of a similar item many years ago that I used for an ailing geriatric dog. I loved them because they were super handy, weren't treated with any kind of pheromone-smelling product (I didn't want to encourage my dog to relieve herself in the house, just wanted to have absorbent padding under her in the event of mild incontinence). They worked great for that purpose. Flash forward to many years later, and I had a puppy that I was house training. I'm not a believer in puppy pads because I want my pup to learn that the only place to potty is outside, and IMO, puppy pads just confuse that concept. However, a friend of mine had given me a package of puppy pads. Not wanting them to go to waste, I thought I'd just use them under my parrot's play pen to catch food that he throws, stray corn cob bedding, or in the event that he hangs his bottom off of the side of his play pen to potty. Normally, I use designated microfiber towels for this and just launder as-needed, but needing something in a pinch, I remembered the puppy pads. No sooner had I put one down, my 90% potty-trained pup took one sniff of that puppy pad and promptly peed on it! Obviously, the puppy pads were not a wise choice for under the bird's play pen. That reminded me of these, and I ordered a pack last week. They're the perfect size for my use, super convenient, and are a time saver. I'm able to re-use one multiple times since the only time I need to replace is if the parrot has...well, you know. These aren't very environmentally friendly, so they're just something to keep on hand as a backup if I anticipate that I won't have a lot of time for laundry. I think they have numerous uses for pets aside from the intended use for humans, and are suitable to protect furniture or carpeting from pets who are experiencing *mild* incontinence (I don't think these pads would absorb a full bladder, and the plastic is rather thin - I have no intention of testing that theory for the obvious reasons!) I expect that a package will last me a long time as they're only going to be used once in a while, but I think this is an item I'll always keep in the house. Read more
They are typical puppy pads. Huge and exactly what was needed to cover a large area. Thermy are leak price and absorbent. Moderately thick but because of the size and depending on your crate space, only one is needed. Makes cleaning the crates so simple and hassle free. Just pick up fold up and dispose of. Read more
Pros: • Large pack offers great value • Highly absorbent and leak-resistant • Versatile—works for adults, kids, babies, and pets • Lightweight and easy to dispose of • Good size for most beds and floor use Cons: • Not reusable—disposable only • May shift around if not secured on smooth surfaces Read more
DATE OF ORDER: 01/16/24 DATE RECEIVED: 01/24/24 DATE OF REVIEW: 03/10/24 PERSONAL BUY / PRODUCT TO REVIEW: Personal Buy DELIVERY: UPS - Nicely packaged in combination with other products. QUALITY: A thin absorbent cloth-like material over a thin and slick plastic sheet. INTENDED PURPOSE: Rabbit Cages RECOMMENDATION: We have multiple rabbit cages that have plastic pans in the bottom. The pans can be pulled in and out as the rabbits sit on the cage floor above. We use the pads to absorb urine. It will also catch the pellets. PROS - They make a cage much easier to clean. Although they do not catch all urine, they absorb pretty well. They make cleaning a pet pan much easier as they only require a sanitary disinfectant cleaning after removing instead of having urine run all over and causing clumps to stick to the plastic pan. CONS - The size we need is not exactly available. Therefore, we have to overlap 2 pads to make up for it. The pads have a plastic liner on the back side that tends to slide around while you try to re-install the pans back under the cages. We do use a thin layer of cat litter over the pads to weight them down and provide an extra layer of absorbancy. Expense is another other con. Again, because we have to use 2 pads for each cage (due to size issues) it costs twice as much to use. Sometimes with the overlap, we try to get away with replacing just one. Rabbits generally use one corner for bathroom privileges. The other end for sleeping. BTW, our rabbits are out of their cages frequently roaming the house and backyard. These are pets. Not meat rabbits. NEUTRALITY - The pads for 1 rabbit have to be changed about every 5 days. With multiple rabbits, it can get expensive quickly. As long as we have these rabbits, we will continue to purchase these pads. They would likely work very well for dogs that can't behave indoors. They would be handy for changing oil in a vehicle (Small spills). And they could be used for things like planting plants in pots. An easy clean up for sure. Therefore, we recommend this type of product as long as it is cost effective for you. They won't hold a ton of liquid, but if the liquid is a small quantity, they are good for the intended purpose. Shop around for the best price. There are several sellers on this website and others. They are all about the same. Read more

I purchased these to help with keeping my son's bed clean and they have worked amazing. They are very sturdy, have a large surface area, and holds up to his night time accidents. We have also began using them in the car on long road trips as well as on the couch to help keep things clean and smelling fresh. Read more
