Question white fleece

Is white fleece a bad idea? Does it make stains show up more?

Re: white fleece

I use a small off-white piece for one end of my cage because all of my fleece is just a tad too short for my cage. It looks pretty gross by the end of the week, and it's really only in one corner that the pigs can get to.

Re: white fleece

Yes, it will look dirty quickly. That said, if there's any blood or anything like that, you will notice it more easily. So it has pros and cons.

Re: white fleece

I have light purple fleece and when I clean it you can see all the grimy piggie stains of where they lay and hang out.

Re: white fleece

I had powder blue for a long time and it showed really in the one spot where she would hang all day, but mostly when I went to shake it out. White may require a little more often for cleaning, but since the urine wicks through, it should be fine
