But apparently not!

I was sick and tired of Daisy STILL peeing in my bedroom...so I bought an expen and I have her corraled off in the kitchen. But she isn't very happy about it!

1st, she continues to pee in it...and even though i clean it up with simple solution...i can still smell it..and in the kitchen...UGHHHHHHHH!!!
Gonna have to start laying pee pads down in it i guess.

Another thing is she wont eat!! I can be gone for hours and leave her food down, and i come home and its still there!
yesterday for example..i was home, but we were busy with company, etc....and although I came in to see her often and walked her, she never ate! Her food was still tehre last night.
Offered her fresh food before bed, nope.

Gave her fresh food again this am...hasn't eaten yet.

She's mad at me, right?

ughh...and Im going out of town for 4 days this weekend and my parents will be here with her and the kids

Have youe tried a playpen with pads in it? That worked for me. I would think she is mad after being in your bedroom and now confined away from you. Good luck!

Amy, I'm sorry that you're having such a hard time.. It does seem as though she is angry with you. I have used an x-pen almost since day 1. I've never had a problem. Daisy knows that she goes in there when we've got a lot of company or when I leave... Try putting a pad in there and see if that helps.. I hope that she gets over it for you...

This may not help, but Logan won't eat if he feels his dish is dirty. Usually we either wash it, if we have time, or just put his food directly on his placemat and then he eats it. Not sure if he can really tell his bowl is dirty or if he's just being a brat.

I also bought Logan a playpen, You can get crib mat that soak up water that will fit in a pack n play then if he wets it I just spray it good with natures miracle and throw it in the wash....It's been a pretty good system so far.

I would keep her in diapers. I can imagine it to be very frustrating if they keep peeing in the house!
