Guinea pig bedding question?

There's a pretty broad agreement that wood shavings are a bad idea,especially pine. I would get her off them right away and put down newspaper with hay or a towel on top. Some of the hay around at the moment is quite strawy so a towel might be better but they get soggy and need to be changed at least once a day. Or you can use Carefresh, but it is pricey. I find fleece is ideal. You can get the right kind from a href="http://www.hammockyhammocks.co.uk/." rel="nofollow"http://www.hammockyhammocks.co.uk/./a We have a 2x5 C&C cage and a 2m length of 150cm fleece gives us a double layer. The moisture wicks away and we have newspaper underneath as well. We turn the fleece half way through the week and do a complete change every week. We also have pieces of old towel (hemmed or they fray) which we put under their pigloos and change frequently. If you are using a pet shop cage google 'C&c cage' as these make a big difference to your piggy. (Email me privately and can tell you where to get the materials in the UK). Another thing that keeps the cage clean is that I work at home so our piggies get a lot of floor time (fence made with same grids as cage) and I find when they have a lot of space they will have one or two bathroom areas that you can protect with newspaper or towels. The only only downside of fleece is that you need to shake it very well and check the washing machine filter a lot for bits of hay. Also with fleece don't forget to still give them a big clump of hay so they can burrow.
