I have coroplast for my cage, and fleece only on the bottom. My problem is when I clean every day, the fleece just pushes towards me. I cant get the poo that way. Is there some way I could hold the fleece down with something for when I'm cleaning the cage? Also, my guinea pigs always goes over to the edges, and kick it so they can see under it. PLEASE help! Cleaning the cage is so hard without the fleece being held down! Sorry, if it's hard to read this, it' hard for me to explain. Thank you in advance!

Does anyone who uses this method every have any issues with piggy feet getting caught in the silver part of the binder clips? I'd be kind of worried if they were zooming around and caught it the wrong way, but I love this idea seeing as I have the coroplast inserts for flippers but no sewing machine!

I do exactly the same thing only instead of clips i safety pin the corners tight. The Piggies can't get to it because they are on the bottom. Nice and tight and easy to clean.

I clip the fleece to the shower curtain, or in this video, coroplast. Is that what you're doing?

@piggles0117, the maker of the giant fleece flipper said to just take off the silver prongs if it worries you. There was a thread about it somewhere.

This is awesome! I have been looking for a way to do flippers with spending a lot of money or having to get a sewing machine. This looks perfect! Thanks for sharing @piggles0117
