RIOUSSI Guinea Pig Fleece Cage Liners, Highly Absorbent Washable Guinea Pig Bedding for Midwest and C&C Guinea Pig Cages with Leak-Proof Bottom

I bought two of these, and you will need both. Completely waterproof, so the pee evaporates. I sweep up the poop in the morning and evening. I have two girls and I can go one week before I change pads. I shake the dirty one outside and then wash it twice with an extra rinse. Do NOT put in dryer. I tried aspen chips, paper bedding and a cat litter type product for pigs. The Rioussi Guinea Pig Fleece Liner is less messy and less work. And the quality is great. I've washed them both twice now and they look brand new every time. Still no stains!

Was trying to save money and environment. These liners are definitely cheaper than buying disposable bedding, but I should have sucked it up and bought better fleece liners. Another reviewer said that hay sticks to these fleece liners like velcro - spot on! Also these are definitely not very absorbent. Using them for playtime - as soon as one of the piggies has peed on it, you can see/smell it. If I don't change and wash these daily, the whole house smells like a fraternity. (We only have 2 piggies.) Other reviewers have mentioned how the length is wrong (true) but how it just goes up the side of the cage so it's no big deal. Maybe for you. My mischievous little pigs like to burrow under it, which negates the whole purpose. It's not like guinea pigs are going to listen when I yell "ON THE FLEECE!"So yeah, if you have mischievous piggies, hope you like cleaning crap straight off coroplast.

I should have just gotten another Guinea Dad liner l, but I thought I could save some money for a liner to use while that one is in the wash. Mistake! This barely lasts two days before it's smelly and soaked through. It has a weird texture that prevents it from being swept completely clean. It's also much too big for the cage size I have. I may have been sent the wrong one by mistake, but it's almost 1 1/3 the length of the C&C 2x3 I have. I have to pin it up with binder clips.

This is very thin and does not feel like fleece at all. It is almost impossible to clean as hay sticks to it like velcro. When they pee it just sits on top and does not absorbe unless left there for a long time then it just drys and doesn't really absorbe. Not worth the money.

So I got these for a new guinea pig cage I got instead of fleece liners because the fleece liners are so expensive. Bad choice. I should have spent the money on the fleece. These are nowhere near as absorbent as the fleece. You can see the pee and it stays soaked if they have one area they prefer to pee. Also, the bottom rubber part is also wet. I never had this problem with fleece. This is not a good option to replace fleece. I plan to keep this under the fleece, but will now need to purchase fleece liners. Also their nails stick to the fabric.

Thin but stays in place. Not padded if that’s what you’re looking for. Has slipper-sock-like traction on the back. Washed fairly well - curled a bit on one long edge due to some asymmetric shrinking of the edging, I think — this doesn’t affect fit and function as it smoothes out. A little large for a MidWest rabbit cage (used for guinea pig) but works. We let it curl up the sides on the ends. Odor is minimal with changes every 6 days and vacuuming in between. For context - we have two adult male guinea pigs who have a litter pan with paper bedding they use 90% of time for urine and 75% of the time for poop, so use of pad is limited. For the cost, worth it.

This is fast wicking fleece. I bought two, but the second one I purchased separately. I didn't pre wash the liner and it started working. Also I am able to shake and brush off any hay/bedding/fur and can get most of it off pretty fast. I then use a lint roller to get the small bits. Pop in the wash on gentle and fill the fabric softener spot of the washer with distilled vinegar to sanitize, also need to use detergent that is scent free and gentle. I don't put this in the dryer because apparently fleece can melt, so I hang the damp liner on a chair in my room with good airflow, and it's just like new in the morning.

I bought this to try to help with the cost of bedding as well as some of the mess that comes with it. The short of it is, this liner helps with both. Continue reading to get more insight, however.One thing to consider when purchasing this is how much daily upkeep you can provide. I find this requires a bit more daily cleanup to ensure pet odor stays at a minimum. While paper bedding can hold the smell in without constant spot cleaning, you’ll pretty much have to spot clean this at least once a day. And even with that, the smell is more present than with paper bedding.This, however, is easier to fully clean, as you simply remove it, brush it off, and throw it in the washing machine and wipe down the enclosure itself. I do find things like hay can stick to the pad and requires some extra brushing.It does seem to be fairly absorbent, without really noticing much issue. And I haven’t seen any leak through. It should be said that paper bedding is more absorbent, however.One other thing to consider, paper bedding provides more cushion for your animal, where, though not unpadded, this liner has much less of a buffer between the bottom of your enclosure and your pet.Fully washing this liner once a week seems to suffice, and therefore appears to help with the cost, addressing one of my concerns. The other concern regarding mess does seem helped by this liner as well, as said. Guinea pigs tend to kick up paper bedding, this eliminates those paper scraps showing up outside of the enclosure.Overall, it’s a give and take, but if you are looking for a liner, this one works just fine.

I will complement a sturdy build quality. But the "fleece" is not like any soft fleece i know, it's the kind of fabric that grabs hang nails and holds on to hay debris like velcro. It's fairly thin I would not use for bedding, I mainly only put it out for floor time, to cover spots not covered by other matt's. As seen with most GP tubers, the best value per square foot are the Ikea bathroom matts.

First week using these with our two guinea pigs. So easy to use! So much better than the wood shavings I used years ago when I had tunes pigs as a teenager. They seem to absorb really well, nothing soaked through the bottom. I rinsed out the mat in the tub before putting into the washing machine and then hung to dry. I will have to use a lint roller in future to get any bits of debris off as it stayed stuck on even after a rinse/wash. The guinea pig poop vacuums off this well and it was a quick cage changeover!The two pack was a great value! Might even pick up another pack to have on hand and we can change out a bit more frequently. I'm not one for smells and this offers an inexpensive solution! No more bags of shavings every other week!Highly recommend!Might even use one or two in the bottom of the dog crates. So far super happy. Let's hope the quality holds up!

Completely worthless and overpriced. They leak right through. They smell rancid within two days and are hard to clean. We bought a total of four to keep on rotation, but have to go back to normal bedding after wasting our money on this subpar product.

Seems hold alot more than the other pads, this was used for a section where the guniea pig does her thing. Still need to change daily and clean the cage weakly, but they work alot better than the others. I guess you get for what you pay for.

These are better than nothing but I wouldn’t have them as the surface your pets sit/walk on because they stay very wet feeling. We use it to catch water dripping from our guinea pig waterer but they do not suit my intended purpose which was to put under their huts as an easy change bed mat.The dark grey fabric on the 12” squares does not feel the same as the light grey print. Light grey print is a little better.
