Aw looks like they love it! I'm going to the pet show tomorrow. There will be plenty of fleece items to look at! :)

With the corners, I tend to try and tuck them under the best I can to stop them trying to tug at it.
 
Oh I hope you have a really good day! I'm so excited, I can't wait!

This is going to test my folding skills haha! I came to them this morning and it looked like they had a party. Poop everywhere and the house upside down and the fleece pulled up in the corner! They looked happy though! Haha.

What is vet fleece and where would I get it? Is it easier to lay down etc?
 
I'm switching my piggy on to fleece in a few weeks so I'm just stocking up at the moment! This has been really helpful and I will definitely be posting pictures of him enjoying his fleece soon!
 
That vet fleece is like vet bed just make sure your buying a good quality one as I brought some from EBay that I thought was the proper thing that I quote ' lasts years ' but the backing has completely disintegrated in a year so I've had to buy new vet bed that my Alex is modelling in the photo :)

I've jumped in on this post ... sorry samrr . . can I just ask bringing mine in from the outdoor hutch soon and have a large eco habitat for them. which I was going to use snow flake and puppy pads as I find the clean fresh cage powder keeps the smells down... a huge argument in our house and why they are still outside. fleece I have been using too in the bed area of hutch and as floor time and it smells . ... even when just washed it still has an odour.... is there something you can pre soak them in? my fleece liners are sewn up with matress protector but I still find they feel soaked sometimes in small areas and they have been washed loads. can you use just towls or pads or liners then throw the fleece over top without sewing together? then I would cut up lots more fleece and change every 2 days to keep smells down.
 
Because it's so thick, I can put it on the floor and vacuum it like a rug but using a mini dustpan and brush does a good job too, bits don't really go all the way into the fleece. I then put it in a horse bag to wash it as I can't get every bit of hay off it.

I use either a washable incontinence pad or towels and puppy pads underneath my vet fleece...I don't have anything sewn together. The vet fleece wicks well and I only wash it once a week. I bought some dettol laundry cleanser that goes in the wash instead of fabric conditioner to clean the bateria out. Vet fleece can be washed at high temperatures but I don't know about the horse bag I wash it in. The incontinence pad and towels smell much more than my fleece.
 
I am definitely getting a vet fleece! Thank you so much for all of the links, you've all really helped me!
All of your piggies are so so cute!
No worries at all! We all have questions :-)
I will post photos in a minute of Elvis and Gary with their new fleece!
 
Here they are! Loving their new fleece stuff and the snuggies.
We do actually have a snuggies bed under the wooden house!
They wouldn't share the double snuggie so whilst another snuggie is on order, we're going to have to cope with the bridge over the bed.
