Chartwell hutch Ramp covers

[The Potteries Guinea Pig Rescue]

Hi folks
I want to cover the ramp in Cadfael & Hugh’s hutch.
It’s a 5ft Chartwell double
Any ideas please ?

Hi Helen
Do you mean some sort of pad to cover it?

Yes I’m not sure what to use, so it’s more grippy than the wood

When I had ramps, I used Velcro to stick a piece of vetbed to it. The vet bed provided great grip and the Velcro mean I could remove easily for washing (although it never really got dirty).

I would happily make you some padded ones to cover it if you would like to give them a go, when I have made ramp covers in the past I’ve put ribbon to tie them to the hinges.
Drop me a message if you would like, I wouldn’t charge as it’s for a rescue, I’ve got skinny bits of fleece in.
This is one I recently made for a friend for their indoor ramp, (excuse the picture quality is from a video!)

I bought ramp tunnels from CandE Cosies, they have velcro straps to hold them on and a kind of grippy fleecy liner on the base.
