Cozy?

[Slave to the Rose]

I just made a cozy for my little Rose a few days ago. She loved it from the start and there is really only one problem. She refuses to leave it to go to the potty. She is litter trained for the most part and poops primarily in her 'kitchen' but she loves her cozy so she won't leave it to potty. The result? I'm going to have to start washing it every day to keep it from stinking.

Any ideas?

Make several cozies. I haven't figured out a way yet to keep pigs from using cozies as potties. If you have several, you can switch them out daily and wash them when you have a few to put in a washer load.

I think they just get so comfy they can't be bothered moving. I have 1 for each of my pigs, and to save me from having to wash it every day I have spare pieces of fleece that I lay over the fleece that's sown into it when it gets damp. Seems to work pretty well so far.

I wish I could sow...and I wish I could afford to buy more off the cozycavy, but it cost me nearly $90 AUD for 5 and that was just shipping them from the US to Canada so they could hitch a ride home with a friend.

Thanks for the ideas

Aertyn- I will try that untill I can sew more cozies.

Or kind of like Aertyn said, so you don't have to wash the whole cozy everytime, you can not sew the fleece onto it but have it seperate so you only have to wash the piece of fleece itself whenever it gets soiled.
