Hiya everyone, I've completely missed out on being on the piggie forum this summer :yikes: So much has been going on so I've simply not had the time. However, that certainly doesn't mean there's been no action for my piggies! We've actually changed their cage twice (three times if you count...

So it's stuff attaching to the fleece that stops it from wicking? There shouldn't be anything problematic in the detergent, I use this. Not sure what could have gotten attached to it. I thought you were supposed to wash at 60 degrees to kill all the bacteria. Is that not necessary...

I have a guineadad liner that I've had since January?(not sure) and I wash+dry it once a week. The Guineadad liners are made extra big to start with so when they shrink in the dryer it fits but after drying it so many times it does not fit my coroplast anymore. This is really a problem because...

Hi, In November I adopted 2 guinea pigs. A male and a female. They can be together this weekend, because then it is 6 weeks after castration. I have ordered a c&c cage 6x2 and it will be delivered soon. I would like to switch to fleece. I want to buy the starter and then make something...

Honestly, I can’t thank you enough for your help! I am worried how the dominance will be when I put them back into a completely clean cage as I was putting some of their hay back in afterwards for the scent. Bramble likes to hump, a lot! I guess it’s just something we’ll (& Fozzy will have to...

I make my own liners and pee pads. I'm not very good a sewing straight so the sewing is often a bit wonky but as my OH says 'it's only for piggies to pee on'! I can make at least 2 or 3 liners for the price of one if I bought them so what's a wonky line between friends? We have a collection of...

thank you, genuinely, you’ve got no idea how much that means to me. i might’ve burst into tears of relief and had to take a minute to calm down enough to write aha, thank you 🩷 when you say transfer the same bedding; should i wait the same days i usually would before deep cleaning their cage, or...

Thank you for the reply! I love it, what's a wonky line between friends 🤣

Hi all! Haven't posted in a while because things are going (relatively) well with our boys. Sadly we lost Mario a few months back, but happily we welcomed Harrison, Oreo's 3rd cagemate (is he murdering them?). Harry's skittish w/ people but otherwise very happy, and Oreo seems happier as well...

If it's small pieces in high use areas for an elderly not moving around much piggy you may need to change it daily/twice daily if the backing feels wet. If you are using it in the cage like a fleece liner every 4-7 days depending on how many piggies you have, how much they urinate etc. If you...

So this is the set up that i am going to be having for two of my Piggies. I need help and or suggestions on how i can make this the most comfy and cozy apartment for two of my Piggies. i am unsure of what i should all have inside. I know I should have at least three hides for them...

Thank you :D I am nervous but excited! If they like each other it will make quite an awful week a lot nicer, and I'll be glad to give new boy a home if it works out, he sounds lovely I did ask the rescue about this and they said splitting the 6x2 might cut too close to Tofu seeing it as his...

Hi everyone I am a disabled owner at my absolute wits' end. Over the past six months, I have spent £1.5k at general vets who are minimizing my guinea pigs' symptoms because they mask their pain at the clinic. I feel like a captor torturing my pets rather than an owner, and my mental health is...

I am super excited to sew some liners, potty pads, a beds and hiding spaces for my future piggies. I just bought some discounted purple plaid and froggy fleece for two starter sets! I even found some patterns on Etsy that look easy enough to make. I love the idea of using fleece instead of...

Are they boys? How old are they? By removing all liners and hides in one go you have inadvertently removed all scent, made them to feel like it is no longer their territory and caused a round of dominance as they reestablish their relationship. This can go on for up to two weeks. We advise...

I agree with everyone else. It is going to be in your and your piggy's best interest to take down some of the walls. I've got a 3 by 8 C&C cage and can't image how hard it would be to maneuver around myself and everything else to clean it. I prefer noodle mats over fleece liners, but that's...

There boys, I'm not sure the age as they were taken from an advert online and the person said "ive had them for a couple of months I dont know how long though" so I'm not sure

It will depend a bit on what your liners are made of. My liners are anti pil fleece. I wash once or twice before use on 30, as I use pee pads in the heavy peed on areas I don't worry too much about the wicking. I just make sure I use older well washed pads to start with. For general washing I...

Hi Everyone, I currently have a corex loft in my piggies cage but use it more of a hay nesting box at ground level with a fleece liner going in to the opening. The walls are quite high so my girlie's like it, I think it makes them feel safe. They have had it a little while but I have noticed...

oooh good idea! theres a little bench in my shower that i can put her in a box with a towel/fleece liner and some food. I plan to wash my hair tonight so I will bring her in with me then. Will update you later tonight.
