Very pretty - not absorbent, even after two machine washes.
It's very cute, but after two machine washes it's still really not absorbing much urine, so I have had to continue to give my guinea pigs butt baths, which they find traumatic. I have purchased three fleece liners from GuineaDad which far outshine this fleece in absorbency - I love the design so I was excited for the fun look, but I find myself tempted to throw it away because bottom line: it isn't really doing what I need it to do, which is to be a super-absorbent fleece for a guinea pig cage. I actually just spilled some of their water on the surface of mine (which prompted me to write this review) and was shocked to see how it just sat on the surface. I had to quickly find a towel and throw it down to avoid my guinea pigs wading through it. If that's what happens with water, I hate to imagine their urine just sitting on the surface.
