I'm hoping I can get some more input on the safety of fleece bedding for a
munchy pig. I really want to get?Puff back onto fleece, but am overwhelmed
with worry at the prospect. What do you all think? Has anyone had a piggie
take a chomp of it and survive?
I'm frazzled. Can you tell?

Hi...My name is Cheryl and I have an Abyssinian Guinea Pig, named
Henry...his cage bedding are bath towels , it works real well for him....I do
change and wipe out his cage everyday , and have to wash the towels once a week,
but it works real well...Henry loves his clean towels and popcorns all
over his cage when I clean it, its really cute too~~!!! The only draw back is
he does pull on the threads and eats them, but the vets say its ok, it will
pass right threw him...Henry is over year old and very happy with his
bedding I use...I use small hand towels also in his cage and he drags them
around like his little " blankie " and lay them where he wants to lay down at,
he uses them like a pillow , its really cute too....
I have a friend who uses flannel in her guinea pig cages and she has
4- 5 cages...before you use the flannel you need to wash it a few times, so
that it will " Wick " the moisture away into the material...She swears to
it as safe bedding for her guinea pigs...
I guess you can try and see if it works for you...But, I will never go
back to litter for Henry's cage, I'm very happy using the towels...
Good luck...
Cheryl
