If you line your pet's crate with blankets, throws, or towels and find they constantly slide around on the slippery plastic tray that comes with the crate, I have an inexpensive solution. I found an old exercise/yoga mat that I was no longer using, which I cut with scissors to fit the crate's plastic tray. Since my dog is small, I still have enough of the mat left to cut two more pieces, which I can trade out when one needs to be cleaned.
Obviously, the bigger the crate, the less material you will have left after cutting one piece. If you don't have an old yoga mat handy, I have seen used ones at thrift stores for sale, or you can buy one brand new at Walmart, Target, Amazon, etc. Also, this will provide some more cushioning and make the crate more comfortable for your pet.
