I wasn't going to post on this because I felt embarrassed lol but seeing has we are not the only ones now
...we had cleared out the cupboard under the stairs (not a small cupboard) it's in the kitchen, and taken the door off and put a child safety gate on and a comfy bed, water bowl, toys etc for Poppy. She spent one night in there, she howled most of the night and then at 6am we came down to what I can only describe what looked like an exploded poo bomb, absolutely everything was covered in poo
Poppy looked so sorry for herself all wet and covered in poo
We cleaned up and Poppy had her first bath in the sink cause she was so tiny
She had come to us with a bad tummy upset and she was needing to poo about every hour so we decided it was only fair to sleep downstairs on an inflatable air bed on the living room floor so we could get up to let her out when she needed the toilet, 2 weeks later we finally saw an end to her poorly tummy after 4 visits to the vets, but then how could we after 2 weeks shut her away and go upstairs to sleep we felt it wouldn't be fair, then after 3 wks the air bed got a puncture, so we went and bought another, then 2 wks later that one punctured so we decided 5 weeks sleeping on living room floor was long enough, we were dreading leaving her but she was a little angel
she cried for about 10 mins and that was it, and the added bonus was she house trained really fast so it turned out perfect
