The one that I have has one zipper pull for the top and 2 zipped doors on the side. Hope this helps.

To be honest I'm not sure. I just always found a way to put it on and it always closed correctly if it didn't I would flip it over and and zip it up and it has always worked .. I hope it helps!

I have noticed the pad is warmer on the bottom than the top. I tried turning it over with the same results. My only conclusion is the pad gets warmer when the animal is laying on it. As for the coils, did you inflate the pad? I personally haven't sat on mine, but my orange cat seems to find it quite comfortable.

No. It is a nice pen. Some difficulty with zippers but would buy again. It is convenient and nice looking

I bought this for a very young kitten that we adopted. It is great and folds into nothing. For two grown cats it would work as a short period holding place, like if you are traveling with them or keeping them safe. I would NOT keep them in the pen for long periods of time. It is very durable and the netting is quite strong. My kitten figured out the zipper pretty fast so I had to "lock" it.

Yes the top unzips and completely comes off if you would like to take it off as well. I foster puppies and it is great for puppies up to about 12 weeks. Once they get too big for it they realize they can knock it over and get out if the too is not zipped. It's a great pen, lightweight, portable and easy to clean. Folds right up when you're done with it.

this is a real nice pen. yes there are 2 doors one on each side. I set it up in the living room and my 2 cats had a ball in it.It folds up nice and will fit nicely in the basement of our RV. I got it to have a place to let the cats out in some fresh air will be just the ticket.

Im not sure which one you need to buy, it might be a defect with this pen. My advice would be to spend the extra cash on a much nicer one

Hmmm... interesting question! It looks to me as though it isn't intended to be removed. I haven't attempted to remove it. I think it is just part of the pen. That's my opinion on the matter.

Yes there are 4 even though you see 2. The reason is when a cat scratches one side, you simply remove it and turn it over and you have a brand new refill. When the second side is scratched then remove and put in a new one. So that gives you 4 refills and not 2.

I'm not sure where to find the model number on the pen? Also, I just saw a note on my comment with Amazon that I can return the pen since it appears to be a counterfeit.Thanks,D. Kelly Starr

The pen will spring back, it's very flexible. For instance, I lean over it to clean the litter box (the side I lean on flexes but springs right back). I think it all boils down to the play action of the dogs. I don't think the one on the outside would like the flexing if they jumped up against it, but it would spring back if they did. Imo, I think it could be calming for the dog inside, especially if you put the pen in a corner whereas the outside dog would not be circling it in its' entirety. I have mine against a wall, so my pet is only facing out to the room, not needing to circle to watch is happening. A small bed and a little bowel of treats turns my pen into a condo of relaxation for my pet. If you buy it, I would suggest using it before your visit so your pooch knows what it is you're presenting ( a treat/bed condo). What is amazing for my pet, they associate the treat/bed and look to me to put them in it. And that's a cat! Best of luck.

Twist the bottom of the pen counter-clockwise holding the top part still in your hand until it fully retracts Or twist the top which is my favorite, counter clockwise holding bottom still to have pen retract, the opposite to have the ink cartridge to come out. No more marks on your shirt or anywhere else. I also use Fischer Space pen insert BOLD type, writes like a dream!! Have a great one!

My primary complaint is that it takes four (4) complete revolutions to completely retract the pen. Two would have been acceptable but four? A little too much. Plus, once you've twisted it that many times it feels loose.

Yes, there is a zippable top that you can close completely. The top is made from the same/meshed fabric as the rest of the pen. Your cat should won't be able to get out, unless it tears up a hole..

There is a zipper that opens wide enough to get a medium sized cat out fairly easily. There are also side doors at the end caps. Overall, it's been a great setup for my cat who loves to be outdoors but can't be an outdoor cat because of the traffic, etc. in our neighborhood. Hope this helps!

The top does close with a mesh like the surrounding sides and closes with a zipper. But if your dog is a jumper like mine is (toy poodle), she started figuring out that you can get out the top and would jump, stratch, and bite to try and get out (even though she never got out). So the zipper stopped working after a while which meant I had to either buy another or have an opened play pen. I bought a new one and the same thing happened, so I just bought a big cage for her instead.

There is a "nose-cone" tip that unscrews. ... Just stupid simple ... There is a tension spring but the insert (refill cartridge) does not retract ... It is just covered by the cap. ... The cap (with the ring monunted on it) snaps on (does not screw on) ... I read that some people lost their pen because the cap did not retain the main body of the pen ... I bought it anyway ... I lost mine, within a week ... This is a fairly short pen ... The cartrige does not use the PARKER Compatability extension adapter, that comes with each refill, because this is not a full length pen (but is long enough for normal, comfort and control).
