I bid on one of these pads at a fundraiser auction for rescued rabbits. I have a disabled rabbit that had has limited mobility of her hind legs. This pad works so well for her, and has made it easier to care for her and she is more comfortable and clearly happier. It lays flat, and gives her a good traction for standing and trying to move about, but it also is gentle to her skin. She has no pressure points, it wicks moisture away from her, and the edges give just a little bit of support for her as well. It is durable, and washes easily. I am very pleased!
