Fleece cage liners – singles

For common plastic based and other rectangular cages –

if you’re looking for bigger pen liners for popup pens, square pens, porta cots etc, you can find them in their own sections:

Deano fleece cage liners are reversible – they’ll work no matter which side is facing upwards.

Easy to wash, quick to dry – and back into the cage.

There’s over 50 standard sized rectangular liners in this category, (and that’s not including the C&C, Kmart cube, pen liners, hutch liner sets etc)

– if you don’t find the size you need, try a few cm each way in your search (many liners are rounded to the closest 5cm) – we can also CUSTOM make any shape or size to suit your needs.

FLEECE CAGE LINERS:

Deano has been making fleece cage liners since 2013 –

WHAT ARE THEY? – Deano fleece cage liners have three layers, all stitched securely together all the way around. Wash only one item – it’s just a simple ‘mat’ that you wash, over and over.

The top and bottom layers are polar fleece – this fabric works as a wick to pull liquids into the middle absorbent layer and keep it there – like a disposable nappy.

This means the outer surfaces are dry and comfortable for your pets.

WHATS INSIDE: The liners contain a non-toxic, absorbent cotton based core on the inside which absorbs and holds the liquids. There is NO PLASTIC or BAMBOO layers in my liners.

Liquids will not leak out through the bottom so there is no need for any plastic barrier..

DO I NEED TO PUT ANYTHING ON TOP OR UNDERNEATH THE DEANO LINERS?

Deano liners need nothing else on top or underneath to make them work – no carefresh, no puppy pads, no shavings, no towels ….nothing!

Save yourself time, money & water by washing one single item – instead of many layers .

The Deano cage liners are designed to be reversible which makes cleaning halfway through the week a breeze!

Just shake out your liner, flip it over and your cage is nice and clean for a few more days. So no matter which side faces up, it will work for you.

HOW OFTEN DO I WASH THEM?

I recommend the liners should be spot cleaned daily to keep your pet’s home clean and healthy.

You can do this easily by using a small broom and dustpan or even purchasing a hand-held vacuum.

Of course you can also just remove the fleece liner and take it outside, shake it out and put it back in for a quick cleaning day.

In between washes – if you’re pressed for time, take the liner out and hang it in the breeze for a few hours to dry off. It will start working again straight away.

All liners should be changed out every 4-7 days or as needed.

Please do not keep them in the cage any longer, even if the cage liner still feels dry to the touch.

Our fleece cage liners are made to be easy to use, easy to wash, and quick to dry – so they can get back into the cage faster.

All Deano Designs Perth liners are machine washable – or you can hose them off outdoors, or handwash them.

CLEANING AND CARE:

For information on cleaning and maintaining your fleece cage liners, see ABOUT FLEECE section here on the website.

ORDERING TIP: Load your liners into the cart one by one, this will help you get your fabric selections right for each liner (ie your chosen colours for front and back of each item.)

Discounts will be automatically calculated inside the checkout if you buy more than one of the same product type, even if different size.

So which liner will fit my cage?

Firstly you need to find out what size your cage is, before you can decide which liners will fit best.

You can choose liners from my standard range that are close to what you need, or you can have something custom made to fit your special cage.

MEASURING:

Only measure the spaces inside the cage, these are the INTERNAL measurements.

Using a tape measure you need to find out the size of the floor you want to cover.

Allow an extra 2-3cm or so – this is so the liners can curl up the side walls a little (this helps the poops roll back down and not get caught on the ledge)

CHOOSING YOUR LINERS FROM THE RANGE:

There’s TWO search boxes – one is LINER LENGTH (longer side) and WIDTH (shorter side).

Always choose/search the longer side first.

Most fleece liners are sized in rounded sizes to the closest 5cm, say 90x45cm, 55x30cm – rather than 88×43 or 53×28 etc.

So allow a few cm either way and you will most likely find something suitable in the stock range.

A relaxed fit is better as it gives better coverage to most cages.

ERROR MESSAGES when you try a size combination:

I got this green error message after putting my sizes in – why?

I can’t find the size I need in the selections…. what do I do?

FREE QUOTES TO MAKE CUSTOM SHAPES/SIZES:

If you would like me to quote on making some fleece cage liners for you, email your measurements /diagram to me directly – (a photo is not really workable for this) – [email protected]

You can also chat with me on Facebook messenger.

RAMPS AND DOORWAYS: CUTOUTS AND CUSTOMIZATION

The location and sizes of ramp gaps is important. A simple diagram like this one will help be to ascertain where you need a gap cut into the liner so your pets can access it safely. It’s a good idea to have all the sizing marked on it.

This helps me to quote, and also, I have to make a cutting pattern for your liner.

I make many fleece cage liners for wooden hutches, indoor pens, C&C type cages, outdoor runs, midwest crates, and many other uses too.

Setting Up your Fleece Liner

So you have your new fleece bedding, now what?

To allow Fleece Liners to do the job we intend it to do and draw the liquids through it into the absorbent core in the middle - called wicking - the Fleece Liners MUST BE washed and dried AT LEAST twice before using in your pet's home. This is due to all new Fleece Fabric having a type of waterproof coating - this is why your fleece jumpers keep you dry.

Please DO NOT USE Fabric Softener, as it will put the waterproof barrier back on the fabric.

Washing your Fleece Liner

WASH: Machine or hand wash your Fleece Liner in cold or warm water with a natural liquid detergent, do not use Fabric Softener.

DRYING: I highly recommend drying your Fleece Liner outside folding them them over your clothes line and depending on your weather they will dry quite quickly.

As with any washing the more water you can squeeze out after washing, the sooner your Fleece Liners will be dry. Line drying is kind to the environment, and saves on energy costs to you.

TUMBLE DRYING: Fleece Liners may be tumble dried on a low/medium heat. It should be noted that Fleece is a synthetic fabric and repeated tumble drying on high temperatures may reduce the lifespan of your Fleece Liners.

Cleaning your pet's Soiled Fleece Liners

When using Fleece Liners all you are required to do for a full cage clean is roll up the soiled Fleece Liner, place in a basket, carry outside and shake the liner out. It is important to sweep, vacuum or shake off as much hair, hay and poops as possible before washing it.

Next take your Fleece Liner to wash in the washing machine or hand wash in your laundry tub and after you can place it on your clothes line to dry or put in the dryer. Remembering that the more water you get out by spin cycle in the washing machine or squeezing, the sooner your Fleece Liner will be dry.

When washing, use a natural liquid detergent to wash your Fleece Liner and add a cup of vinegar to the wash for an extra boost in cleaning and removing any possible odours. I highly recommend putting your washing machine through a extra rinse cycle after it's finished cleaning your Fleece Liner - as it will remove any loose pet hair from your machine - stopping hair from getting on any clothes in the next load of washing.
