    VERY helpful. I've only had my Piggies for 2 weeks and they're still quite skittish. One will allow me to pet him (on occasion) but the other runs away. While I DO replace their piddle pads daily, I've been trying to figure out how to clean the WHOLE cage without freaking them out. And here you are with THIS! I will give it a go and (hopefully!) have both a clean cage and Piggies who haven't been traumatized! Thank you!

    Ah they look so happy in there. I like the idea of litter trays under the hay rack. I’ve just been using pee pads that I change daily but hay does get everywhere.

    I have two long-haired guinea pigs in a 9' x 2.5' cage. I cover the flooring with mattress incontinence and crib liners, so the wee never gets to the flooring. Then I cover the pads with anti-pill fleece from the fabric store. Before I put them in the wash, I thoroughly vacuum the fleece to get any beans, tiny pieces of hay and as much of the hair off as possible. Then just pick it all up and wash it. No extra wiping needed.

    • @GuineaPiggles
      @GuineaPiggles  3 роки тому

      I like the way you call poops "beans"! :D By the way, I'm not sure if you use washable or disposable incontinence liners but we don't recommend the disposables as guinea pigs can chew these which can create dangerous blockages in their digestive system. If you do use these we recommend using the washable version We also discuss these here on our website www.guineapiggles.com/fleece-bedding/

      Yes, they are the fabric washable kind. I buy them at Walmart. I have some in the wash at the moment. 😉

      Any plastic litter tray is fine but make sure they can get in. We use a small cat litter tray which works really well.

    It might sound silly but I am nervous about putting these in my washing machine. I just have this fear the clothes in the next wash will come out smelling funky. Has anyone ever had an issue with this or am I worrying for nothing? I would like to get these for our set up cause I like the idea of reusing them, but my husband has an extremely strong sense of smell and I feel like he would notice this.

    • @GuineaPiggles
      @GuineaPiggles  3 роки тому

      We use disposable bedding now but we never noticed any smell issues with the clothes in the next wash. But I used to put the machine on a quick rinse cycle just to make sure any hairs weren't left in there. Adding white vinegar is really good for eliminating odours.
