(I hope I put this in the right section...)
We have a wonderful new guinea pig who loves to be wrapped in a towel and snuggled on your lap....much to our daughter's delight.....until she discovered he could pee right through two layers.
I bought a large thick towel and planned on doubling it up and sandwiching it between 2 layers of fleece to make a lap "pee" pad. I'd like to include a bottom layer of some kind of waterproof, but sewable fabric. To save money, I was looking at shower curtains from amazon (I'd like to make several of these) but not sure how they would work - some are only water resistant.
I need suggestions on the types of fabric to look for - and cheapest source to obtain it. (Oh, yes we looked on Etsy but its costly, plus we have a sewing machine and I have solid basic but solid sewing skills)
Our lonely, pee-ful guinea pig thanks you!
