Title: Anyone have to buy puppy training pads for their cat?
Post by: Mark on July 05, 2007, 09:14:45 AM

I saw these washable ones with odour control - can be washed 300+ times. Might save some money + eco friendly

There are other sizes available too.

I wonder if Teresa could use these for Mini-wotsit?  It works out to 2 1/2 p per use which is loads cheaper than disposable puppy pads but then I guess you'd have to do loads of washing all the time and I wouldn't fancy washing them in with my own clothes  :sick:

I was thinking of mini as well. I was thinking if you have about 20, you can buy a big bin in a pound shop or wilkinsons to keep them in and wash 10 at a time or so. A 60 degree wash with an AAA machine uses about 1.5kw so about 12p electric + say 2p for water (don't know how much 40 litres costs) - just an idea. Just like doing babies nappies  :evillaugh:

But they should last a long time.

I sent T the link yesterday and she's going to look into it and see if usage x cost weighs out. It may be more expensive as Minimopsical uses a few a day.
