Wanted - Run for Dylan


Dylan's going to be coming to my mum's house in a few weeks. We've got most of the stuff sorted already but we need a run for him to use at night (otherwise he'll be wailing at the bedroom doors all night)

Anyone got any suitable runs or advice on what run to get? It just needs to be big enough for Dylan to have a litter tray, a blanket, food bowl and water bowl in there.

I was thinking maybe this sort of thing:

Re: Wanted - Run for Dylan


We use similar to keep cats confined on 'cage rest' at work. Some will take to it, others will spend the entire time trying to escape and become quite distressed-cue lots of mess, upturned water bowls, litter trays etc.
How long do you have until you go to stay with your mum? I think you'd need to make sure Dylan has lots of time to get used to the crate-have it up indoors, with the door open, feed him in there etc and maybe use some feliway if Dylan is susceptible to it.

I'm already here, Dylan will be coming after next month.

We've already found one suitable on ebay.
