So I just finished washing and drying my first sewn set of fleece and UHaul pads. It came out great, no smell and it did not shrink. It fits perfectly like it did the first time. The Fleece and UHaul pads lasted me a week before I started noticing any odor. I really love this idea as it saves me from buying bedding, which makes such a mess and is quite expensive. I was able to make two sets of cage liners, two pads and still have extra to make either another set of cage liners or pads. I also got the Fleece from Walgreens; they have a ton of colors and designs, I suggest you check it out! It was also fairly cheap at 2 for $7.00 and each fleece is 50" x 60" you can easily get two sets of cage liners from one. So I just want to say thank you Nicolene for the great idea! We just made another cage liner for when we need to change the fleece and an extra circle pad(UHaul pad in the fleece) for their igloo since they often go potty there. I also added extra padding in the spots of the cage they tend to urinate in.
