A Subscribe & Save regular purchase. & Now I decided to review them because they work fantastically. Now I don't have any dogs, but these pads have come in handy for a lot of different uses. Right off the bat - I'm a cat person & cats inside need a litter box. You know - I once came across an article on how to train cats to use the toliet, well----my cats did not cooperate, the little devils!
With cats the problem is where they aim or position themselves inside the litter box & you might guess this, it can end up outside the box. Kittens don't have this problem, but grown cats will often circle around in a box & dig in the corners & then back up & go - right over the side! I then started using boxes with covers, so they were inside when doing their business (I liked this because, well, I didn't want to always see the inside of the litter box) but with three little devils -- there is always one who has a different opinion of what they are going to do -- so the top had to come off. SOLUTION, use these pads under the box to catch overspill.
OTHER USES: These pads have come in handy in other ways.
1. Dropped a jar of maniara sauce on the tile floor = used a pad, placed it on top of spill after removing glass chunks with absorbent side down, I then pushed the pad together scooping up the sauce. The floor actually was quite clean afterwards but then I used a spray & floor mop to finish up the job of cleaning. Since that, I've grabbed these with several spills/drops to quickly absorb the liquid it's faster than grabbing a mop & keeps the liquid from spreading out on the floor.
2. Needed to spray paint a small item, used a pad underneath item to protect surface.
3. Use pads when transferring liquids between containers, so any spilt liquid will not roll off of cloth to floor, pads absorb it quickly.
4. Kids projects - place pads on table or floor. Whether coloring or painting or using markers, if they go off target or spill something the pad will absorb it & keep surface protected. This also applies when doing a cooking session with them, put on counter top for flour spills or liquid spills etc. - will speed up cleanup - just roll up pad & toss. If it's just dry ingredients, take over to trash & shake into can & pad can be reused - by the dog as it is still able to absorb.
5. An unexpected use came recently during a heavy rain storm, heavy & long lasting -- a leak, more than one in a section of a room. I laid these out on top of the carpet all around in case more leaks occured - to protect the carpet & show where the leaks were - they also protected from water spray, as water drops into bucket it causes the water to spray around sometimes over the bucket top.
6.(Sensitive Subject) I sometimes transport an elderly person who has issues with being able to hold urine (Hey, as we age things start to not work as they use to) This person wears diapers but when you really go sometimes, well the diaper may not hold it fast enough -- for piece of mind, on long trips we use one of these pads to protect the seat area. This allows the person to get out of the house - sometimes with issues like this they don't want to go out anymore, so having this extra pad lets them know that they won't spoil your carseats if something happens.
You'll find all kind of uses for these pads even if you don't have pets.
