Hi everyone,
Sorry if this is in the wrong section, please move it if necessary.
Oscars igloo broke the other day, and it's hard to find another one like it, as It clips into the cage. And because he has another one anyway, I'm planning on getting him a tent as he just loves soft cosy things bless him. I've seen some tents, and my old boys had some, but Oscar is so stylish that I have to get him something special. I've seen some people in here with strawberry tents and I was wondering if anyone knows where to get them from, or any other stylish cute tents.

Thanks everyone
 
I ordered one of those for one of my piggies birthday on the 20th yesterday, they are too cute :)
 
Yes, I got 2 of them last month. They came from China, took about 10 days. Definitely worth it.
 
Mines supposed to be from the UK but looking at the name on the invoice I suspect it might be coming from china :))
 
We had one of these, it lasted over a year before the base started ripping so they're pretty durable! They squash down pretty flat which is handy for the washing machine too. One thing I would say though is that they're not as cosy/insulated as fleece cosies/tunnels/corner beds/cuddlecups that you can get.
 
I have ordered three little ones in pink. Cant wait! Ordered some vet bed too for an extra cosy floor.
 
Omg they are gorgeous! My piggies need these in their lives, whether they want them or not lol! I swear my lot think I've lost the plot with all the cute fleecy stuff that's been arriving for them :-)
 
Mine are currently enjoying my small purple one i got for them! Having two babies and only 1 fully grown girl, even when they are all in it there is still loads of space!
How do you wash yours? Mine said dont put it in the washing machine :/
 
I wash mine in a special bag so the hair doesnt clog up my machine. If you search horse bag or moorland horse bag on eBay you should find them, they're normally orange with a zip across the top, I'm on my phone otherwise Id post a link. I got a medium one about £10 and they're made of a special material that filters out the dirty water and protects your machine, I wash everything piggy on a 60 degree synthetic setting no matter what the labels say!
 
Mine came on Wednesday its lovely, great that you can remove the inner base so can wash that separately, saves washing the whole bed all the time. I also wash on 60 degree wash no matter what label says, not harmed anything yet :)

A little tip: We had some off-cuts of of Vet Bed so cut these to use as spare bases to change every 1 or 2 days & then just was the outer as required.
 
I've got one of these, originally for my bunnies but they don't use it.. My piggies love to take a good nap in them though! Just a shame they do their business inside ;)
 
You can also use old duvet covers or pillow cases to put your piggy washing items in, just tie the top up securely. They do just as good a job at keeping all the hair etc in and a cheaper alternative!
