FAQs
What types of pets is this playpen suitable for?
This playpen is ideal for small animals like hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs, chinchillas, and small rabbits. Always supervise your pet during use.
Can I expand the playpen later?
Yes, if you purchase additional panels and connectors, you can expand or reconfigure the playpen to create a larger or different shaped enclosure.
Is the floor removable?
The floor is typically integrated or laid within the base connectors. Refer to your specific assembly instructions for details on floor placement and removal.
How do I clean the playpen?
Wipe down the panels and connectors with a damp cloth and mild soap. Ensure it is completely dry before reassembling or returning your pet.
What are the dimensions of the playpen?
The approximate dimensions for a standard configuration are 125 x 63 x 42 cm (49.2"L x 24.8"W x 16.5"H). However, this can vary based on your chosen configuration.
Can this be used outdoors?
While durable, it is primarily designed for indoor use. Outdoor use may expose the plastic to elements that could degrade it over time, and safety from predators should be considered.
Troubleshooting
Panels do not stay connected
Ensure the panels are fully inserted into the slots of the ABS connectors. Check that you are using the correct number of connectors for the panel configuration.
Pet is chewing on the plastic
This playpen is designed for supervised play. If your pet is a persistent chewer, consider alternative containment methods or provide appropriate chew toys within the pen.
Playpen feels unstable
Verify that all connectors are securely attached and that the playpen is on a flat, stable surface. For larger configurations, consider reinforcing corners with additional connectors if available.
