I want to change my bedding type, I am curently using oak/walnut shavings. But my guys make a big mess with it. I am thinking of switching to fleece. I thought about making some fleece "pads". By having fleece for a top layer, layer of cotton batting, and then a viynal bottom. All sown together to fit the cage perfectly. Do you think this would work? Do you think the cotton batting would wear out to quick from having to wash it all the time? (that was what my husband asked) Would like to have many more opions. Anyone out there who dose alot of qwilting know if the batting would handle it? Thanks for the help
