Pee Pad, Dry Pet

I have always been using Pet Sheet (left in picture with a dog lying down) from my nearby pet shop, My Pet Passion. The shop owners are a friendly young couple whom we acquainted due to my frequent visitation and so they always give me a very good price. They always charge me $20 for a pack of Pet Sheet (be it 45 x 35 cm size for 100 sheets version or be it 45 x 60 cm for 50 sheets size version)

Recently, I bought another brand of pee pad, Dry Pet. It costs me $23 (size S: 40 X 60 cm for 50 sheets) and I bought from the AlienPet blog shop. I bought Dry Pet as it was advertised on some websites that this pee pad can absorb 200x more time an average pee pad. Hence, I just need to try to know! 

Purely based on their appearance, their inner absorbent surface are both criss-crossed patterned and feel similarly slim. The absorbent surface also felt similarly for both. 

At the non absorbent side, both are plastic sheet which gives the waterproofing function. Again, except for the color, the material just felt somewhat similar. What amazes me for Dry Pet is each sheet comes with 2 strips of adhesive tape at the plastic side backing. Somewhat, it reminds me of ladies sanitary pads! Hahahhahaha the adhesive is useful to secure the pee pad in place. However, due to the way my litter box is setup, with or without the adhesive function does not matter for me.  

Basically both pee pads are able to covered my trays well. Pet Sheet has more coverage at both the length due to the additional 5cm measurement. 

I did not take pictures of the 2 trays in their after-use by my boys simply because they do not use pee and poop equally for both trays. 

I am tempted to perform an absorbency test akin to the ladies napkins advertisement in the 90s - pour an equal amount of colored water into the 2 pee pads, but decided not to waste my pee pads. 

So what I did was to determine the use of the pee pad on different days. As I know my boys have a tendency to pee and poops mostly on the right tray so the pee pad are used in the right tray on separate days of course. 

And the results......

The absorbency for both Pet Sheet and Dry Pet based on my observation, somewhat similar. The soiled (after an overnight use) picture though is using Pet Sheet, the same soiled appearance also seen in using the Dry Pet. Hence I'm showing a soiled picture merely for illustration purposes. Note that there was hays in the litter tray was because these were leftover stalky hays which my boys dislike. I am recycling the unwanted hays as another layer of absorbent 

Ok, absorbency liquid power are similar but not the scent absorbency. After the overnight use of Dry Pet, their urine odor (akin to human toilet smell) was very obvious. It was so strong that I had to change by the mid morning (thank God it was a weekend). Pet Sheet, however, does not have this issue. The urine odor is pretty mild to nil after the overnight use of it. 

So the conclusion? For more value for $$$ and little or no urine odor issue, I'll stick to Pet Sheet for now. 

Vegetable Salad!!!

Yummy!!

 That was Koogle when jailed for stray pee. He has since released!

I always think their sleeping positions in the 2 trays reminds me of Chinese prayers Sheng Jiao. 

And this means it's a Yes prayer! With Koogle as the upright and Cotton as the flip. Hahahaha

This picture reminds me of 2 cars parking in a parking lot. 

When their trays were removed as part of their potty retraining. 

They formed a Love shaped too???? 

Cotton used his litter box! What a starbuck he is! 

When the gate was finally removed for their first free roaming night - 2 nights ago. 

Their resting positions reminded me of stone lions guarding a building!

In their 2nd night of free roaming. 

Resting after a good Sunday breakfast!

Banana!!!

Upon watching Koogle licked Cotton that Thursday (09-Oct), so I decided to reward them with a Banana!

A cost of 70c banana! hahahaha

Koogle eating his banana can be found here.

Koogle Finally Kissing Cotton!!!

09-Oct-2014 marked as a very important date for their bromance! This is because Koogle was caught grooming Cotton....finally! 

Koogle was grooming himself and Cotton then slipped underneath Koogle (could see Cotton begging to be groomed). Koogle self-groomed and after a few sec, started grooming Cotton. I could not believe my eyes either! It lasted less than a minute but was an epic moment! 

Koogle doing his Yoga stretch! 

Look at the boys discussing and plotting something up to no good again. Hmmmmm

When I came home that day, the boys were very well behaved ie no stray peed. For some strange reasons, Koogle stomped his foot twice and I patted his head thinking he might want a pet but he still stomped. 

Sometimes I do find them like woman - hard to grasp. :X
