Title: Dog Wee Wee Pads
Post by: Heatherama on July 20, 2008, 01:55:01 AM
I know there are a few people here that use them in their cages.  I'm thinking of putting them under a piece of fleece for the bottom level of the cage instead of the paper I have to clean twice a day.  Anyway, I spend a LOT of time in the hospital because of having lupus...and while I was there the other day, I noticed something.  They have something called a Chux Pad, it's the pad they put on top of the sheet in a hospital bed.  Absorbent, soft, and big!  Also cheaper than Wee Wee Pads.  You can get 100 of them for about $15....try finding that price for 100 dog pee pads.  I looked them up, and the same company that makes them ALSO makes the dog pads...so it's the same thing!

Just thought some of you might want this money saving tip.  :)  If anybody finds something better...I'm all ears!

Where do you get them from?

Personally, I wouldn't use them due to rats chewing.   I doubt the contents would be good for the rats to ingest.

IMO it is no different than a rat chewing on its fleece bedding, or cardboard box.
