A little while ago I came across a thread on here with a tutorial for making these fleece donut beds (thank you to who ever did that). Tobi has always LOVED pillows in his cage to sleep on but I have found that it didn't take many washes before the stuffing clumped up and held the piggy urine smell to no end!
Didn't take me long to make two donut beds (a bit bigger than the tutorial said) and for the boys to be allowed to try them out - they love the beds and don't pee on them! :D

First I made one to the size the tutorial suggested, I knew it would be big enough for little Chip :

But I wasn't so sure it would be big enough for Tobi and all his fluff - I was right.

So I needed to make something a little bigger. It's only an extra 4-5cm in diameter but plenty enough.

I like to think it is pretty obvious that they are enjoying their new beds :)

And an individual shot of AppleCheeks. When she came here, she was a mere 722g at around a year old.

x) x) beautiful piggies and fantastic beds, they love them dont they!
 
So glad that you posted this! The piggies look very happy. Going to make these once I get my sewing machine back.
 
First attempt at a fleece tube. I'm not terribly happy with it (needs more foam to keep its shape) but the piggies seem to like it :)
