Is fleece better for guinea pigs or bedding?
I would have to say fleece is better. It cuts down on the dust for guinea pigs, the bedding does not get stuck in their fur, it is easy on their feet, and the top always stays dry. Note: Do not use regular detergent to wash fleece. Use vinegar and a gentle, scent free detergent (like oxy clean or tide free). Also, fleece is more effective if your guinea pigs' cage is large and there are not many guinea pigs (1-3 guinea pigs). MAKE SURE YOU GET EVERYTHING OFF THE FLEECE BEFORE YOU WASH. Your guinea pigs will be as happy as ever with fleece.

What will Guinea pigs need in their cage?
Guinea pigs need somewhere to hide, constant supply of hay(timothy hay preferably), a water bottle, plain guinea pig pellets, and toys. They also need fresh fruit and veg everyday, and for the bedding they should either have wood chips or fleece(i prefer fleece as wood chips could cause breathing problems)

it depends on what cage you have in my opinion. If you have a cage from the pet store i think bedding but if u have a c&c cage where you can make it as long as you want fleece is the best because you only vacuum and replace the sheets. seriously think fleece is better though
You have 2 guinea pigs theyre very active and dont seem sick at all but one of them sneezes pretty often you have them on fleece blankets and towels?
If your guinea pig sneezes it means it could be allergic to the fleece. Keep it away and buy it a different blanket. If that doesn't work, it just means that theres dust in the air.
