Well, after having my fleece liner for a while, I'd say it's pretty convenient. The main problem is that Leo has gotten the idea that pulling all of the fleece that goes oven the sides down. Either that, or he pulls down one corner of it and I wake up to find a piggy running around in the tunnel between the coroplast wall and the fleece. :p What do I do? I tried wrapping the fleece under the cage, but that doesn't stop him. He keeps yanking it until it comes down. Do any of you guys have experience with this?

Haha cheeky little monkey! I don't have this problem, but others have said that binder clips work wonders.

Also, if you put down a smaller piece of fleece in a pile over your fleece liner, he may burrow under that instead of trying to get under the liner. My piggies love to burrow under pieces of fleece when the temp drops to about 67 F.

My little Frappilicious is also a burrower. She loved getting under the fleece and pulling it down-we could always find her by the moving lump under the fleece. Both of the above ideas worked for us-I put down smaller blankets for her to burrow under, so she can still tunnel, and clipped/zip-tied the fleece high up on the grids so she couldn't pull it down. She still reaches up for the clips every now and then. She's just an inquisitive little thing, and she knows she's in a cage. I also put in a fleece forest for her, which has become one of her new favorite places-plus she can't pull it down! ;)
