Last weekend I started making things out of fleece for the guinea-pigs. So far I've made 2 sleeping bags, a tunnel and a piggy pillow and I want to make more things for them. Does anyone have any ideas of what I can make?
 
Have a look at this website - it is in German, but it comes in step-by-step pictures.

They have tips on how to make a cuddle cups and even a cozy cube!
 
I sewed a square of fleece onto some cotton tape and hung it in the cage- the pigs like to hide behind it and run underneath. You could cut a fringed edge and hang it across the run for them to play with/ run under. :)
 
Thank you I think I'll try that. I've just thought, I want to make another tunnel, one thats a bit more sturdy, so I need to put something quite solid in it to keep its shape, but I don't know what?
 
A hammock! I made my boys one with an old teatowel. They like to sleep under it rather than on it but you may have more luck :)
 
Thank you, I'll try that too. Do you know where I could get some clips to hang it on the side of their cage?
 
I just cut into the tea towel to make two strips on each corner and then tied it to the corner of the cage (see pic below - it's rather basic, I'm sure yours will look better). The forth corner hangs down to the floor and they hide behind it. Or you could use bull dog clips? They're what I use to keep my fleece in place. Easy to find in a stationery shop.
