Guinea Pig Goodies!

[theoretikos]

I'm not sure where people purchase their fleece and towels for pig bedding but I have recently bought a ton of stuff in a charity shop. My mother is a volunteer in a PDSA retail store so I occasionally go for a look.

So...I found this lovely little baby quilt that I plan on using in the winter - it says "time for bed little bear" x) and the Piglet toy that they aren't interested in rolleyes

Then over the past few weeks I have collected enough towels and fleece to fill this basket...

The best thing about this is how it has only cost a few pounds and that includes the basket!

Where does everyone else buy their stuff?

Aww they will be so cosy in the quilt. You got lovely things and it shows how much you love your piggies.

Your basket looks great! Loadsa snuggly stuff for your piggies. I looked in charity shops near me but found nothing suitable. I got my fleeces in poundstretcher really cheap and good quality so should last the amount of washing they will get! I changed from woodchips to fleece yesterday....they love it! Have to say I do to.....woodchips were far too messy especially as mine are indoors!

Sometimes they keep the fleeces and stuff in the storage area as dog blankets so you may have to ask x

I love charity shops always have a look but never found any fleeces but got lots of other goodies. I get my fleeces from ikea £1.74 each, also got some from b&q knocked down to £1.50 and £3, always shopping around for fleeces

I got one of those Ikea fleeces for myself then the pigs stole it off the sofa....

Ha ha they have stole all my fleeces too, even cut them up an old dressing gown

Great idea! I must remember to raid the local charity shops to find some fleeces I am going to sew them some beds and was thinking about where I could get fleece!
