- Do you want to know how to make an easy DIY Bonding Scarf for your guinea pig, hedgehog, sugar glider or other small pets, then this is the tutorial for you!
Lots of small pets love to cuddle, guinea pigs cuddle, sugar gliders cuddle, hedgehogs cuddle and so do some ferrets (my four ferrets aren’t big cuddles). Cuddle your pets helps create a great bond between you and your pets. Not to mention, cuddle with your pets or just having them around in general is it’s said to be healthy, healing and relaxing for us humans as well.

thank you for this tutorial! my mom found a scarf like this on amazon and wanted it for our rats but it was expensive & i said i bet i could just make one for them! gonna try now😇💛
It’s not to hard. Figuring out the length of the elastic was the trickiest part.
Super cute!!! I love this! I will make this when if i get my ferrets :)
Could you please do a tutorial on how to make the double fleece bonding scarf? Thank you!
I wish I could post a picture, my 3 piggies LOVE this scarf!! I made mine a bit wider (around 20”) and all 3 of my little piggly wigglies fit perfectly and so
Snuggly 🥰 definitely going to have to make a few of them to always have a clean one on hand! Thanks for the tutorial!
Awww, that’s so awesome! I’m so happy the tutorial was helpful! I do have an IG and Facebook too called FerretTails if you wanted to post a pic there and tag me or send it to me in a message I would absolutely love to see your babies enjoying their scarf 💜
Aaaaah it looks so good! I honestly love the butterfly fleece pattern 😁
The butterfly pattern is so pretty, it’s really soft, which is what makes it slide when you sew it But I was excited about how it turned out. This is the first one I have ever made... to bad my ferrets won’t lay in it 😂
Yes
Awesome video. Thank you!!!
great, clear tutorial. i have been looking for something like this for a few days, thank you!
Thank you great idea .I have guniea piggies. I can't wait to made this.
THANK YOU!! I’ve been trying to find one for my snake and haven’t been able to find a good video explaining how to make it!
thank you so much for this tutorial, I just made one and it's perfect for my guinea pigs!!
Love, love, LOVE your videos! Especially your tutorials. Can you please show us how to make the same bonding scarf, but with hidden seams? ♥
I am hoping to do a video on that this weekend or soon after!
im gunna make one for my rats
Love itttt
Could you make a guinea pig fleece liner Tutorial I really like the way you explain?😄💕
I would definitely buy if you sold these! I would make it myself but I don't have a sewing machine lol.
I can definitely make you one! If you message me on Esty I can create an order for you. I just need to know what fabric colors or designs you like. I can also see if they still have the fabric you picked for your liners available, if you wanted it to match.
Super cute!
Made this scarf and I love it! Any chance you can do tutorial for a fleece scarf with a zipper pocket?
Im so glad you liked the video! I will work on it another version with a zipper pocket! I’ll let you know when I post a tutorial on it!!
Looking for the video that has 2 layers of fleece for a bonding scarf.
Love the idea! I’m going to make one for my hedgehog. How long did your elastic end up being?
I am not exactly sure how long the elastic was. I didn’t cut it until after I feed it through and pulled it tight to the size I liked. I think it was around 12” but I’m honestly not 💯 sure. I am making some more this weekend. I will get the exact measurement and let you know.
Yeah I need this for my rats they always want to be held and they have no sense of personal space, my rats will kiss anyone they meet there great with little kids. and its hard to take them In public now because they chewed up their snuggle pouches
Did you end up making the double sided tutorial for this bonding scarf? :)
Do you have a tutorial of one with a fleece pouch,mesh window and zipper inside?
Do you have a video on double fleece on bonding scraf. Love 💘 your idea.
Not yet, but I am planning on making one this weekend. I should have the video up on Monday around 2 pm. I will let you know when I upload it!
@@FerretTails I can’t find the double fleece one in your list like you said in the video you would do, did I just miss it somewhere?
Do you have a suggestion for how much fabric would be needed for a medium cat? The ones I see are expensive and I don’t want to drop $30 for something my cat will potentially hate lol plus I love making stuff.
I made mine using an about a 1/2 yard of fleece. If you didn’t need it to be bigger around/longer you would just need to make it deep/wide enough to hold a cat. I would probably double the width if I was going to use it for my cat, which means you would probably be safe getting a yard of fleece and cutting it 55” long x 24” wide.
Most fleece opens to be 59-60” wide x however many yards you buy) if you wanted the scraf to hang lower as well as be deeper, you would have to sew two pieces together to get the length you want or if you didn’t want piece it together you could by multiple yards to get the length you want. Joann’s will cut fabric as small as 1/4 of a yard so you could get it cut almost to the exact length you need and then cut it as wide as you need to make the pocket deep enough fit your baby.
I hope that made sense, I tried to not over explain, but over explaining is a defect of mine 🤦♀️
@@FerretTailsI read in the comments that you have an Etsy shop. What is it called, please?
@@littleredhen2894 it’s also called FerretTails ferrettails.etsy.com
If you have any questions or if you’re looking for something you saw on my CZcams channel, but you don’t see on my Etsy shop just let me know. I currently don’t have everything I make on my shop, but I can create order for you if there’s something you saw here that you don’t see on my shop
@@FerretTails Thank you so much! I have an elderly girl rat who has the hind leg disorder where her back legs drag, who had to be moved to a one level cage by herself because she was tumbling off the shelves. She's also developed dysphagia and is on a baby food diet (she's had 2 recent choking accidents and I don't want a third 😢). So, she can't live with her friends because she would probably try to eat their food.
Anyway, she loves snuggle time with me, but all I have are pieces of fleece to carry her around in. It would be great to have a bonding scarf. I had one years ago but it seems to have gone missing. I just ordered one from Etsy but I'd love to order an extra from you! I'm not fussy, I just want to let her have whatever time she has left, feeling warm and loved ❤️.
Could you add this to your esty shop? I am not talented enough to make it and don't have a sowing michene, lol. My ferrets would love the bonding scarf, they love to cuddle up in my lap so to make it more mobile and comfterbale the bonding scarf would really help!
I actually need to add a couple things to my Esty shop, but in the meantime, if you message me on Esty, I can create a custom order for you to purchase from.
Actually if there’s ever anything you want that I make and it’s not on my Etsy shop, I can create a custom order for you to purchase from.
Good to know, I think I will!
Its so expensive to buy
What can you use if you dont have elastic
You may be able to use a hair band or hair ties, tied together. You could take elastic out of an old pair of sweatpants or something like that. If I come up with any other ideas, I’ll let you know! You can also get elastic really cheap at Walmart in the craft isle.
You could possibly also use ribbon, cord, even long shoelace and thread it through, then tie a bow on the ends when you have it at a length you like (similar to a drawstring idea). It wouldn't be stretchy like it is with the elastic, but it should still be nice and secure for your animal
