Hi all super furry experts, plus2new here under (yet another) name change
Hope all the furries are coping well in the heat.
I'm trying to decide what to do regarding our bedding situation. The piggies are sleeping in the wooden hutch overnight and spend the day in the travel cot run. I have started putting them out on the grass for short periods but so far they are no keen.
My problem is that they pee sooo much. I am using newspaper and hay at the moment and the paper is constantly soaked.
I am having to do a full clean out of the hutch and run every day and finding it hard to keep a supply of newspaper in and keep on top of the cleaning.
I've heard of people spot cleaning daily and then a full clean every few days but there is no way we would manage this. They are prodigious poo-ers and this I can cope with but the wee is smelly are messes up their run.
I am also conscious of the fact that a wet environment isn't healthy.
I've been looking at these

mats

Is it usual for guinea pigs to pee so much?
