    Will this type of fleece wick?

    Hey guy! I bought this fleece on sale and I was wondering if this will end up wicking? It is the kind that is a bit ticker. I have washed a test part with bleach and vinegar but its not working yet. I was wondering if this type of fleece could ever do it! Thanks!

    fleece issues

    I recently decided to switch to fleece bedding for my pigs. Unfortunately it’s quite hard to find fleece where I am, but I found polar fleece throws at Kmart. I think they are similar to ones from Walmart and Joanns (if you are American, I’m from Australia) It’s 100% polyester. I have now washed...

    Fleece idea gone wrong

    So we made our two guinea pigs a hidey from an oversized piece of waterproof fleece but they're still wanting to and managing to get underneath it. Any advice from fleece owners? We're scared that they're going to eat the waterproofing part and it might do them so e damage. We're thinking...

    DIY cage liners

    I want to make my own cage liners and as I cannot buy uhaul in the uk and zorb is too expensive I’ve been advised to use a mattress protector between my fleece. I’ve found these Slumberdown Waterproof Mattress Protector but just want to double check and make sure that they will work.
