I am a new piggy mom. I have been using fleece for a month ever since I brought my piggies home.
Actually, fleece isn't that of a convenience to me. Especially the washing and drying part. I have to hand wash the fleece and hand dry it.
I am not allowed to use the washing machine for washing piggy blankets. My mum says so. I kinda agree to it. The idea of the pee, hay and fur residue stuck in the machine:sad:
The washing machine is for washing human clothes only.
This week, I'm giving the foam anti-slip mat a go.
They look like this

One of my pig did chew on it. I sprayed the entire mat with vinegar solution after, so it wouldn't be tasty to chew on.
It's quite amazing it keeps the pigs butt slightly dryer than on fleece and also leaves no pee stain on it. I would need to lift up the mat to see the stain on the pee pad below.
They did not bite the mat after that. However, is it safe for the piggies:?:
In terms of the material that it is made.
There are tiny holes in it. I do wonder if it might cause possible toe nail injury. They do seems to be able to run on it freely, for now.
Do you guys think the anti-slip mat would be okay? Or is it dangerous, I would need to change back to fleece.
