I like the wading pools, too. Easy to disinfect, lightweight, inexpensive and disposable after a couple of litters! I had trouble finding them once when a litter was due in the early spring. I went to a large Toys-R-Us and asked at the desk. They had some in storage and with a little coaxing, sent someone to pull a couple for me. They weren't very happy with me <G>, but I did get the pools! Now I make sure I plan ahead. - Janice In a message dated 2/10/2007 11:52:23 A.M.

The round corners and flexibility make it hard for the puppies to get squished (although I've never had that problem...) They are cheap, easy to clean, and and last forever. My only problem now is that I cannot find one in the Pacific Northwest - too cold still.
