    Where to buy fleece liners for cages?

    Hi I'm looking to switch to fleece liners for my guinea pig cage, but where is the best place to buy that also isn’t extortionate? For my size of cage I'm seeing prices at £70 per fleece?! Any recommendations for good fleece bedding?

    Shimmer and Saffron

    A stone hot water bottle will certainly do the job. They keep the heat a lot longer in Human beds too. I didn't know you could still buy them! I've just procured one from my parents' belongings, but it was originally my grandparents'.

    ISO Advice -- What to Do After the Death of a Pig? (Posted orig. Guinea Lynx)

    My fairly recently bereaved sow, Shimmer seemed a lot quieter after the loss of her sister (rip Saffron). I recently introduced her to a baby sow, Shetti and after about two weeks of squeaks and chases they are getting on very well together, even eating close to each other at times. I am so...

    Bedding and heating changes for asthma sufferer

    I’m afraid I have no advice on where to buy fleece as I never used to use it myself but if you’re concerned about them being chilly at night, you could cover the cage with a blanket and provide them with a microwaveable snugglesafe heat pad or two so they have one each. They’re not quite cheap...

    Hutch liner

    Hello I have a large outdoor hutch (that will be moved into a shed in the very cold weather), which I have just lined with self adhesive Lino flooring. I’m just wondering what to put on top of this for warmth and comfort- fleece or vet bed ? Are both okay for outside ? And over the whole...

    Will guinea pigs accidently eat the fluff from vet beds?

    Hello everyone, I used to use guinea dad bedding, and it was great, but after a few years it's now shrunk a lot and extremely stiff. I thought of buying more fleece bedding, but it is extremely expensive, so I decided to try vet bed, which I have seen people use (although that was many years...

    Treating fungus for baby guinea pig

    I’m sorry to hear this Please do not treat him with anything or bath him before seeing a vet. Applying revolution or bathing him will wipe the vital markers that a vet needs to make a diagnosis - thus risking you not getting the correct diagnosis. Keep up with cage disinfection, hot washing...

    Help with hiddies

    My guinea pigs have ringworm. In their indoor cage they had an omlet pig house each which they loved. However I hated them because they have a rim all around the bottom inside that would get pooed and weed all over. They took ages to clean and even then it didnt matter how much I scrubbed the...

    Are Ikea bath mats ok to use in Piggy pens.

    Same here, the IKEA ones are really heavy, I buy mine from Home Bargains. I have had them over a year now and no problems after multiple washes.

    Lifespan of fleece (homemade and Guineadad)

    I have used fleece since 2020, when I got my first guinea pigs. I have second-hand fleece of unknown age and fleece bought from Etsy that has lasted me for the past 4 years. My biggest issue with the oldest pieces is that they have shrunk and no longer fill the coroplast like they should and...

    Hutch liner

    to keep our GPs warm in the colder weather we have created a false ply floor in the bedding area and we pop a cosy Pod heat pad under the false floor this creates a more gentle heat(underfloor heating for them) they loved it last winter, also stops them peeing on the heat pad or trying to chew it

    New Setup Advice (please)

    Welcome to the forum and good for you doing research first. I agree with using 2 smaller fleece liners rather than 1 big one. It does make laundry easier. I have 2 horse wash bags to put piggy laundry in, it saves the washing machine from getting clogged with hay. I also use noodle mats on top...

    @Adelyn's Piggies

    I made the piggies a new fleece bed :D It turned out much better than I thought it would. I was following a tutorial, but decided that I didn’t “need” to buy the pattern she was using . . . it took longer than it should have 😅 Pig tested and approved! ❤️

    Enrichment and cage setup tips/ideas?

    My piggies LOVE hay cubes. I get the large one (or make my own) and buy a bag of forage (my lot have always preferred herbal blends rather than floral). You can sprinkle some forage around the cage for them to find, something which they'll find very enriching as this is something they'd do in...

    Fleece pad making research/ opinions

    I didn't get on with Zorb when I used it in some pee pads to try it out, too heavy and took longer to dry. Shrank more than the fleece and distorted shape of pad despite being pre washed twice. I make my own pads using quilted mattress protectors as the middle layer. I buy the middle price range...

    Bad bumble foot advice

    Please try not to beat yourself or feel guilty. Bumblefoot can happen even with good care, particularly with older pigs whose circulation may not be as good as it was. I've had it happen with a couple of older pigs. A trip to the vet is in order, as often antibiotics help. Topically...

    Fleece liners

    Hi bubble64, I’ve also heard that the Kavee liners don’t actually have a proper absorbent middle and waterproof bottom, which is a pity as they are so expensive! When looking for fleece liners or pee pads, try to make sure whoever you’re buying from is very clear about what the absorbent middle...

    Boy sounds snuffling

    We don’t use any sprays, we clean the cage with piggie cage wipes, we use a spray maybe once a week/ once a month to make sure it is really clean, although the dirt and pee doesn’t go through the fleece. I do t wear any perfumes, or spray in here. Mum wears perfume once in a blue moon, but when...
