Can I line a guinea pig cage with old clothes?
I was about to throw out a bunch of clothes when the idea just dawned on me that I could use them for the lining of my guinea pig cage. I plan to throw these clothes as liners each week when I clean the cage, so why not use them as a liner to my guinea pig cage? Of course I will be removing all metal and plastic pieces such as buttons and zippers. Offhand I do not think cotton t-shirts are a problem, but what about poly blend, polyester, denim. Your knowledge is greatly appreciated.
Please advise.
I currently use Care Fresh Bedding.
I would not use clothing or any cloth as lint or cloth can get caught in their throat while they chew. Cloth will expand much more than paper or woodchips when wet and could cause choking!! Plus some synthetic fibers, even the ones in tshirts will plug the digestive tract and cause an intestinal blockage which is always fatal. I would stick with materials that are meant for small pets that chew. I would not use or old clothes for that pupose, there are a lot of people that can use your old clothes.
However here is a way you can earn money off your old clothes and use the money to buy new ones or offset the cost of the bedding you buy at the pet store. Plus your old clothes will be put to good use by helping others. Here are my suggestions for your clothes.
1. If they are in good shape you can sell them over EBay!
2. Second hand thrift stores will buy them.
3. Have a garage sale.
4. Sell to a friend that does flea markets or sells used clothing.
5. Sell to your friends.
6. If any of it fits me or my family, I may be interested in your old clothes! (I am totally serious!)
Here are some good solutions that will not earn you money.
1. Give to a friend or relative.
2. Give to a charitable thrift store.
3. Give to a church.
4. Give to a homeless shelter.
I hope this helps, but whatever you do. Please do not throw them away even if they are not in the best of shape!! There are already too many nice or still wearable clothes rotting in landfills. 
I hope this help and please read my profile if you have any more questions.
