Towels & Fleece

[FurryFudge]

Hi new to this forum. I've had my first guinea pig for just under a week, I took him from a friend's friend who wasn't giving him the attention he deserves. He is about 8 months old and a lovely boy.

I'd like to ask advice about bedding. I have done some googling and found I can use towels and fleece instead of wood-shavings. Is this true? What sort of fleece and towels should I use?

Yes you can use towels and Fleece on top, the towels are used to absorb the wee and the fleece is used to wick away the wetness. - here's a great 'Sticky' about the bedding. http://www.theguineapigforum.co.uk/showthread.php?t=29854

Welcome to the forum by the way.

I hope you introduce yourself and your new Guinea pig on the 'Introductions' page, Ooohh and photo...please

I think you should use fleece as I use woodshaving animal bedding but it gets everywhere. If you want to wash them you should put them in an old pillowcase or duvet cover

This is my cage filled with fleeces and towels:

They definitely popcorns more often on fleeces and towels. Plus I really love how colourful it gets.
