You're really good looking tbh

Yea nice haircut 😃
Guinea Daddy ;)
@@Chameleam omg BAHAAHHA
@@Chameleam OH MY 😂
We recently purchased your liners. My piggies love them, especially the pocket. They also make daily spot cleaning and full cage cleaning super easy. I'll never go back to paper bedding. Thank you!
Glad to hear your piggies are enjoying the pocket, and it's making the routine more convenient. #nodust 😀
The one person that disliked this video was jealous of his guinea pigs
now theres 8
My liners came yesterday. I read the insert regarding care, but wanted to rewatch this video to ensure I take the best care of the liners. I'm really looking forward to using them with my girls!
They’re wonderful investments!
Thank you so much! This was really helpful. I’m so excited to get my guineadad liners!
Just bought one for my boys. I cant wait to give them their present!
Bought one today. Kids can't wait.
Thanks this helps a lot. The directions that came in the packaging were very clear but i wanted to be sure i didn't mess it up 😂
Love your editing, always get a laugh 😁
I love my liners and crunchy condos! the small liners come with cute tubes for them to play in! i love my guineadad stickers too, so cute! Thanks for this video!!!
This helps a ton. Thank you
Excellent video. I’ve washed my liners for years, but I learned a lot from this video that I didn’t know before.
Very thorough explanation. Just great!
Thank you :)
I got my GuineaDad liner two months ago and it’s amazing! I’m so glad I found your products! I use the recommended settings and I haven’t had any problems! My guinea also loves to burrow and sleep in the pocket more than her hideaway! It’s awesome!
You are such a great daddy parent. I love it! Thanks for sharing
Thank you, and I am glad the video was helpful 😀
We just bought 2 more liners, and 6 of the 12X12 pee pads, amazing products, my little ladies love them.
Thank you so much, and I am glad your ladies are loving them! 👍
Ladies lol
I just bought a fleece liner that's green my Guinea pig love it she mostly goes in the pocket thats her favorite place good job keep making more!
Ive had my first liner about a month & I was gonna get a second one last week, but I’m glad I waited for your holiday sale. Also glad I watched this video because I was over drying the liner
Yay!!! So happy I found your channel!
We're so flattered! We appreciate the support! 😊
Excellent advice Si, great tips well explained! Thank you xx 💚🐹💛🐹💚🐹💛🐹💚🐹
Thank you for watching 😊 We will try to upload more helpful videos for guinea pig parents 👍
Great video! These liners are fantastic and I will now use these instructions.
Thank you!
Thanks so much this is super helpful
great video!! thanks guys!! ceo seems like a very nice guy!!
Haha thank you!
Very helpful thank you!
Thanks G.D.! My girls and I love your liners. The white vinegar does make a difference and it's cheap, I buy it by the gallon. Which reminds me, gotta put that on my grocery list.
Haha yes! Distilled white vinegar is super effective 👍
I purchased 4 liners for my 8 foot cage so I can switch between them when it’s laundry day. I just washed the first set today and the vinegar really helps get gross scents out. We used vinegar/water solution when my dog was a puppy if he peed on the carpet and it worked like a charm. My skinnies love the liners!
Glad it worked out!
My guinea pig loves the GuineaDad fleece she thinks it’s so comfy
Very helpful. Thanks si!
You are welcome 😊
Thank you so much it was so helpful 🐹
Love it!
Hi, Guinea Dad I've been watching a lot of your old videos!! And I just wanted to say that you've helped me so much to take care and help change my piggies life!! I love that you keep doing what you love and it's helping many piggie/owners around the world!! You've taught me so many things in the past couple years!! It's crazy how you've grown your business and your channel!! When I subscribed to you you only had about 8k subscribers but look at you now!! Thank you for everything you've done to help me and my piggie!! Also, thanks to you, my parents are thinking about letting me get another piggie!! I can't thank you enough!! Hope all is well with you, and everything going on right now!! :) ~~ Evangeline and Snickers
Omg thank you so much! I appreciate your comment ☺️ and your continued support throughout our growth! I just want to be able to help as many guinea pigs and owners as I can. I hope you are doing well too!
My piggies and I love our GD liners. My piggy Penny runs laps which includes going under and through the pocket.
Haha, Peanut does that a lot too! Always so fun to watch them run laps.
O.m.g. your liners are the best I've used. They look new after every wash! I only need to buy the red, orange, and yellow Midwest liners, then I will have every color for my midwest cage. They are just amazing liners!
Thank you this was great
Thank you!
Great video, as usual! So far I do everything right, but I wash in warm water, but the warm in my machine is very lukewarm, more on the cooler side. No softener, no sheets, ever! Thanks, Si!
Thank you!
I just got my two boys two of your midwest liners in the orange color. They love them and have been doing laps underneath the pocket! (:
Thank you for this video! I am planning on adopting piggies soon and your videos have helped me a lot!! ^^
Glad I could help! I am so excited for you and I am happy to know that our videos somehow inspired you. If you need help or if you have questions about your guinea pigs please let me know. :)
@@GuineaDad Thank you very much!! 😊
AWWW HII!! I WAS WONDERING WHO THE GUINEADAD WAS IM SO HAPPY LOL
Very useful video
Thanks a lot! Glad you liked it. ❤️
We recently bought a few liners. All my piggies adore them and I am sure the pocket is their favourite. It is an amazing design so please make more products.
I love the green one!!!
Will do! Thank you for your support :)
How much is one liner?
@@spxderman3363 about 68 for a 2 by 4 liner
@@elinacesarz9792 oh dang thats epensive
@@spxderman3363 yesss it is very pricey!! But they are SOOOO worth it!!
After I heard about your liners my reaction was like “🤯😮 that’s Genius”
I love your liners and your piggies (peanut,dumpling, and tofo)
Also I like your hair 😊
And I love your channel and my piggies (mocha and s’mores) Love your pea flakes every time I’m sitting next to their cage they start weeking wanting a pea flake!!
Aww, thank you Jelena :)
After using the guineadad liners, I had wished that I've known this product sooner. I would have saved more money. Guys these liners are amazing! I just followed guinea dads instruction on how to care for them and its great! Thank you guinea dad for being innovative!
Thank you so much for your support! ❤️❤️
@@GuineaDad your welcome..
you liners seem great!
Thank you!
@@GuineaDad hopefully ill get to try them soon enough !
Omg!! I wish I knew about this ages ago!! I just saw thus video when all 4 of my fleece already Strunk 😳 😭 I didn't know about the white vinegar 😅 in the softer but wow definitely helpful! Going to preserve the new guinea dad fleece. Thank you Guinea dad!
Glad I could help! The vinegar does a fantastic job in being the natural fabric softener 👌
thank you .my hooman just got me a new plaid guineadad liner.
Cool! Hope you like it :)
@@GuineaDad wheek wheek ! yess!
Thank you so much for posting this. I loved my first liner but definitely ruined it by putting too much detergent and over drying it. . I just ordered 2 more. I’m looking forward to making these last because I love your liners.
Thanks!
Gotchu!
@@GuineaDad :D
me after realizing I didn’t flip the fleece: 👁👄👁
😄 like the sticker placements
Oh thank you Katherine. I am glad you like it. ❤️
My plan (I don't have the liners yet) is to have 1 set of the liners and while it's drying and washing I can do an extra long floor time (I won't get to do floor time everyday)
By the way I love these liners is so muxh easiee to clean cause it stays dry and my girls love it
What laundry bags do you use? I make sure to brush and spot clean before putting the liners into a regular mesh laundry bag. This has helped to prevent a lot of hair and debris from getting into the washer...however I am worried about heavier debris that is unseen getting into the washer over time. I have looked at a couple of pet washing machine bags but the reviews haven't been supportive.
Thank you for your help and I absolutely love your products! It's made my life so much easier and the ladies are way happier and cleaner because of them. :)
Hello, I actually don't use any laundry bag, and just clean out the machine's filter once in a while. I've heard many people have had success with horse laundry bags.
I use an extra 1x2 in the pocket area so I don't have to wash the full cage liner as often.
We have bought more of the liners we love them. We had one liner go kinda funny on us not sure if its normal or not
Thanks for the support! Be sure to check out our Liner Care guide on our blog: guineadad.com/blogs/news/guineadad-guide-keeping-your-liner-in-tiptop-shape
Hope this helps! 😁
Heyyy I got the same washer and dryer
I always use and old blanket and cut it and when I wash it I hand wash I was planning to get your GuineaDad liner my piggies love to lift up the blanket and hide under it and pee and poop on the plastic so now I got a Louise Vuitton bag and it has a pocket my grandma just gave it to me so i flipped it over and used it 😂 thanks for the tips!
Hi there! Do these need to be washed before first use (to improve absorbency) or do they arrive ready to go? Also, are the all-in-one capsule type washing liquid safe to wash it in washing machine? Or just use water? We never have any powder detergent at home. Thanks!
CEO of guineadad
Do you use a 1/2 cup of white distilled vinegar when washing two blankets at the same time?
Thank you for making this product and for explaining how to clean it. Our guinea pigs love to hide in the pocket.
Aww delighted to hear! Especially that your piggies like it! 😊
You have the same washer and dryer as me
Can you make a video abt new tips for new owners
Hello, just wondering if your able to wash two or more liners at the same time?!
Our washer doesn't have a fabric softener cup, so when should I add the vinegar? During the wash cycle with the soap or during the rinse cycle?
i own 2 cavies and recently bought a guineadad midwest liner, although i do everyday spot cleaning how often should i wash it?
Thanks for watching! On average you can wash once a week. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to us through contact page on www.guineadad.com
Can you wash the 2x3CC liner by hand? Would that avoid some of the shrinkage?
Can you use the spin cycle in the washer to help dry it? It just spins really fast to get the water out
Please consider making bigger sizes! I need a 2x5 C&C liner and I wanted these, but unfortunately, 2X4 is the biggest size
Hi Samii :) Thanks for checking out our video! Because GuineaDad Liner was made to be extremely absorbent, once the liner gets too big it does not wash as well. After experimenting we decided to make the 2x4 as the biggest. Instead of having one big 2x5 liner, I found that having 2x3 and 2x2 is easier to spot clean as well! If you make 2x2 area dedicated kitchen area and put the hang the hay box on that end, you can clean up all the hay by taking that smaller liner and slide all the waste into the garbage can. poop is extremely easy to clean with the electric sweeper I often show in our videos :)
It's a bummer that you don't make customized sizes, because otherwise I was definitely buying these!
They make pee pads too, you could get those? I have a custom cage but its 3 c&c grids in width so I just use a few that are 3 long, you might be able to do that
What if you have none of the recommended settings present on your washing machine (mine only has the settings: cotton 90C, cotton, eco 20C, easy care, wool, rinse, spin, hand wash delicate, sport, mix, shirts, daily 60C and rapid)? I was also wondering if its safe to use distilled vinegar in a washing machine?
You used to have a deep cleaning video! Where did it go?
I like ya cut g
Oh wow! Thank you! ❤️
No wonder whenever I make my guinea pig a blanket fort he pees and poops in there!
Wait, when he climbs into my shirt, he poops in there. That means he feels safe with me right?
Hey so I'm considering buying your liners.
But I don't have a dryer...
I do have a line outside.
I don't know if you you know but how long do they take to dry straight from the washer?
Why is it bad to hang them on the line? If it's just fading that's okay by me.
Also, if you leave them unwashed after being used, for a week does that damage them? (I.e could I go down to the landremat every few weeks and do a big wash and dry)
Thank you in advance!
You can air dry, but should do it indoor away from direct sunlight to prevent possible heat damage. I used to do that too (do it in loads) in Chicago, and didn't really do anything to the liner. However, I can see that pre-soak would help a lot if the liner is old.
Is it the same with the GuineaDad Liner without the fleece pocket?
Is the 2nd version of the fleece on Walmart? I was wondering I just bought the item.
Do I need to use the vinegar? And where do I put my piggies when they are in the wash
Hi, I use fleece liners I made myself for my guinea pigs. They actually got parasites in their fur, so I got a treatment for them, but the vet told me I should do something about the liners as well. Knowing I already wash them every week on a cycle of 1h30 at 60°c... Do you have an advice ? Thank you beforehand
Do you make the liners or order them from somewhere?
I got these to replace paper bedding best decision ever
Thank you! ❤️
I don’t have the white vinegar so should I wait till I buy it ?
Hello there, so my washing machine is odd and doesn't have a cold wash. Lol
The lowest ours runs at is 20°C as a economy wash.
So 20°C still too warm/hot?
Otherwise I'm assuming I'd have to go the handwashing route.
Thanks
How do you address hair before you wash? I am concerned that the hair on the liner will damage my washer. I have tried using a blanket bag, but I have had to rewash the liner because I smell it did not get clean. We try to lint roll as much hair as possible off the liner before washing. Any tips?
I recently bought two liners because my piggies have a large play area accessible from their cage. I think I'm going to get more so I can change them out rather than locking the piggies in the cage while I do laundry.
Can you wash other things with the liner? For example, I have some small fleece blankets I use to hold the guinea pigs and I usually wash them every week. Is it ok to wash the, with the liner? If so, is it ok if the white distilled vinegar gets into my other things as well? Thanks, and I love your liners!
Ok thanks
Ghe vinegar wont hurt anything
I bought your bedding product this time.
So it's time to do the first laundry.
I would like to ask you one thing.
The guinea pig's hairs are heavily buried in the blanket before putting it in the laundry.
Do you recommend removing these hairs and washing them or putting them in a washing machine without removing them?
I purchased two of your liners. But there's a spot my guinea pig use all the time and its a stain. It's very hard to get out. Are there any tips or advice to remove deep hard rough stain.?
Is it ok to use the pet laundry helper? In the washing machine
Is that like a mesh bag to capture the hair? I've heard some people use that to success as well.
Can you make an extra large one for the big 7x2 c & c we have to use to and they try to get under one
We have actually considered and prototyped 2x5, 2x6, and bigger sizes Hi! 👋 We have actually considered and prototyped 2x5, 2x6, and bigger sizes but decided to not go forward with it because of the maintenance issues. Although we halted the production of the bigger liners, we are actually thinking about accepting customized sizes and designs in the future. Don't worry - in the event we start accepting customized orders, you'd be the first to know if you follow our newsletter at guineadad.com! For your 7x2 C&C cage, you may go with (1) 4x2 C&C and (1) 3x2 C&C to occupy the entire cage. 😉
The white distilled vinegar doesn’t add a scent to the liner?
where do you buy your products to wash your fleece :o ?!?!?
What should I do if my piggies got mites or lice? How do I clean Guineadad liner in this situation to get rid of parasites?
해외배송도 가능할까요? 호주로요
my only complaint: I live in an apt. and we don't have any settings! It's wash.rinse.spin :( I dont know how to thoroughly clean my liners with the limited settings.
Veronica Estrada hand wash :)
How often do you recommend changing out the liners?
Depends on how many guinea pigs you have and how big the cage is, but most people seem to do laundry once a week.
Question, if I where to buy just one and wash it every week, how long do you think it would last before it’s been washed out?
Like if I wash the same one every week, would it wear out overtime?
could you just hang it up to dry, if the person is worried about ruining it by accident, if you have extras to use while you wait?
Hello, you can but please try to avoid direct sun or any other source of high heat when drying.
So is it ok to completely air dry the liner?
I made my own liners and they were expensive and time consuming. I'm think of just buying one of these
Hope you are enjoying GuineaDad Liner now :)
What happens if I use no vinegar or fabric softener?
