Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I recently rescued a litter of street kittens. I kept them in my bathroom for the first two weeks, while we got rid of fleas and worms and diarrhea and tested for anything contagious that they could give my resident adult cats. But that made it very hard for me to use my bathroom for showers and whatnot, so I got this playpen (52" x 52" x 32"H) to set them up in my bedroom instead. I was able to fit a high-sided litter box, a cat tree/hammock, a scratching post, and 3 food/water bowls, and still have some empty space for the kittens to lay about. I let the kittens out a few times a day to run around and burn off energy, while I keep my adult cats in the other room. I probably wouldn't want to confine the kittens to this playpen for weeks on end, but it's totally fine when broken up by playtime in a larger space, and it's freed up my bathroom so my life feels much more manageable! At night, I've been covering the playpen with a sheet so it stays dark until I'm ready to wake up, and I do worry about my adult cats thinking it will support their weight and jumping on it, but hopefully that won't happen. I love that the bottom of the playpen zips off because it will make it a lot easier to clean. I also appreciate having doors on two sides, which allows me easy access for scooping the litter box. And I love that it will collapse down and stow away in the closet once I've found homes for these kittens, so I don't have a permanent kennel in my small apartment.
