I find the oldies stay drier and cleaner with a small piece of vet bed in the places they sit the most. I fold a newspaper underneath it to absorb the urine, I do use a fleece/bath mat combination in the cages though rather than disposable bedding. I think loose bedding would stick to vet bed...

Aww! Ours like going under pee pads and beds. We had to put things on top of where the liners over lap so they wouldn’t all go under the fleeces 😂 These are what our liners are made of… we don’t put anything under them.. we put them directly on the correx.. I don’t know if that makes a difference

I would find out how long it is to help you make a decision. But often waiting for a specialist is better. I had to bring my piggie to a non specialist when my usual vet was off. It didn't go well! You could also check the list of recommended vets on here if yours isn't due back soon. Can they...

My guinea pigs are both females and are in a 2x5 cage (with 14 inch grids) so I use fleece for the other 1x2 area, Guineadad only makes up to a 2x4. Yes, the area underneath their cage is very wet cause one of my pigs like to play with the bottle sometimes. (I didn't think she would do it every...

Hello, I’m not a new guineapig pig owner, had my 6 babies for 5 years or so, they’ve been on absorbent chenille bath mats and fleece for a majority of their lives, however it put a strain on my washing machine and eventually the drum of it broke down. I’ve got a newer washing machine and it...

Laundry is a guarantee in life at my house. If your not washing/drying it, you must be folding it! We're a family of five with four piggies; two of our own and currently two foster boys. I do big clean out twice a week so everything gets washed. I end up with two loads on big clean out day...

Thank you, that is very kind. - On the nutritional side, what we are lacking is an overview of commercially available dry forage products. It is currently the area that is seeing a real boom in combination with a reduced or no pellets diet trend but there is often not exactly a lot of detailed...

I'll be making my piggies some fleece liners over the next week or so but I was wondering, when it comes to liners, how big is too big? What I mean is when it comes to washing. I heard 6x2 is too big to wash properly. So what's the biggest I should make?

Thank you so much for your response. We were under the assumption that timothy hay was best but looking at the link provided a few responses above that meadow hay may be even better? We're planning on getting 2 piggies, possibly 2 males? maybe females? we're not sure if it will make a...

That is very good to know, thank you! My boys really do love the carrot cottages. Did you do anything to round off the corners or was it fine without? That's really good to know, thank you Wiebke. The points about scent especially. I was already thinking of using marked bedding when setting up...

I have some stuff on forage but I don't know if commercial forage is included. I know I had added to @Abi_nurse existing list. If/when I find that I'll fact check and that can be added to a pre existing list if need be. I've just found my 101 bookmarks on various animal bits there's at least 6...

Hi guys, another one of my paranoid thoughts with my piggies. My piggy Bear has had this nose whistle for a few months. (Video attached below) I can’t remember if he’s had it forever, because i just noticed it a few months ago. My hearing is bad so I’m not sure how long he really has had it...

Fleece tends not to stain, but white will show everything - poop, hay, and hair. Patterns tend to hide a lot so it depends a bit on what 'look' you are going for, and how much seeing the mess will bother you. I never did white liners, but have seen some super fun patterns on a white base that...

New cage, new experience cleaning it. “Okay, so here we go. You girls are down there, so I’m going to start over here. I’ll put all the hideys over here, and pull up the bedding… “Okay, now you girls have a clean liner down here. Let me put your things down this way. Hey, where is everyone...

Ok so the vet has advised xeno mini on Amazon to save me some money? She is also saying to be careful the mites aren’t spreading around the home? Ie if trhey are being held or if they have been on the couch etc 😰😰😰 how often should I wash thier liners during treatment please ? I’m really worried...

I am pretty good at making most fleece accessories such as pee pads, forests, and even made a fleece pumpkin hidey this fall. I’m stumped on how to make a fleece liner for the whole c&c but with the fleece over the coroplast walls similar to those found at piggybedspreads.com I want to be able...

If you look on U Tube you will find plenty of videos and advice on how make liners :D

I sew all of my liners and cage accessories. One of my most popular (with the guinea pigs) makes was a Ruby Hammock: How to sew a 'Ruby Hammock'

morning all! been looking around and what do you think of something like this? does anyone use something similar? i’m pretty sure they are the same as c&c grids just made from plastic sheets which i thought may make the girls feel more comfortable rather than having open bars all the way round...

Hello friends! I just wanted to post a picture of my current cage set up and see if there is anything I can do to it to enrich my piggies more :) I have attached images but I will explain it a bit too. Two piggies (a neutered nearly 3 year old Boar named Beemo and a nearly 5 month old Sow named...
