Overview
Soft-sided pop-up playpen for dogs and cats, gray, extra large size at 51 x 44 x 29.5 inches. Round polyester enclosure with mesh windows and a zippered door, no assembly required.
Despite living in Amazon's Dog Crates category, this is a soft-sided playpen, not a hard-sided crate. It folds flat for storage or travel rather than locking down like a kennel. The mesh walls give visibility and airflow, useful for supervised indoor or outdoor containment rather than unsupervised confinement.
- 51L x 44W x 29.5H inches, extra large
- Zippered door, mesh windows
- Polyester construction, gray
- Rated for dogs, cats, and small animals
Who it's for
Owners who need a portable, no-assembly play space for a dog or cat indoors or in a yard, campsite, or on a trip. Not a match for anyone who needs an escape-proof enclosure for a determined digger or jumper.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Sets up without any assembly
- Folds flat for storage or travel
- Mesh windows give airflow and visibility
- Soft sides will not stop determined chewers
- Round shape uses more floor space than square pens
Performance notes
The round shape pops open and folds flat without tools, and the zippered door and mesh panels are meant for supervised play rather than long unattended stays. Soft polyester sides mean it will not contain a pet that digs, chews, or claws with real force.
