  1. We have decided to change the sale of our hammocks as of 06-02-11. We are removing the option to include paperclips with each order.
    When ordering a hammock, you can either order it with safety hangers, or without (you may choose this option if you already own suitable hangers). You will no longer be able to order paperclips.

    Although many people are happy using paperclips for their hammock hanging needs, we wish to encourage people to be vigilant with their pets' safety.

    We hope not to inconvenience any of our customers.

  2. We wish to inform our customers of our new schedule. Beginning immediately, stock will be produced on the following basis:

    Week 1 - Stock preparation (cutting and pinning)
    Week 2 - Stock production (sewing, and making available in our shop)

    This means there will be new stock available for purchase on alternate weekends throughout each month.
    Unfortunately we have had to change this due to our other commitments, and hope our customers will understand. However, this means there will always be a healthy level of stock, and we will continue to update our lines with cute new fabrics at regular intervals!

    You may also have noticed that with each new batch of stock, we use only one colour of fleece, with a few different cottons - this makes our manufacturing process more efficient, and so we can produce a higher volume of stock. We always pick a different colour of fleece each weekend, i.e. black week 1, pink week 2, blue week 3, so there is always a great variety to pick from!

    Next weekend (12-13th February) is red weekend! So there will be lots of strawberries, melons, flames and a cute plain red cotton, available as cozies, hedgie bags, cuddler beds, hammocks and tunnels!
  3. Juggling two naughty pigs, a live in boyfriend, a PHD and keeping the website stocked is a challenge, which has been hampered slightly by moving house troubles!
    However, we are now all set up, with a better than ever work area!

    This week we have been preparing a huge amount of stock, in three new batches. These include one batch of multi-coloured items (some yellow, some blue, some pink etc), one batch of purple fleece items, and one batch of black fleece items. We have two brand new cotton fabrics, an amazing cow print, and a cute licorice allsorts print! We hope to sew all three batches of stock over this weekend, so you can expect to see many new items on Sunday evening.

    The following batches will include a huge re-stocking off cuddler beds, of which we are aware there is a current shortage.

    So dont forget to come back soon!

  4. Cavy Couture is now closed for Christmas.
    Due to the recent bad weather, there are millions of parcels backlogged in the system all over the UK. With more bad weather on the way, we felt it necessary to temporarily close our shop to prevent any disapointment over delayed parcels.
    We will be re-opening with the New Year, with lots of new stock!

    Merry Christmas!
  5. I, the pigs and Cavy Couture will be moving house on Monday 22nd November!
    There will be a short delay in responding to email queries, but orders will be processed and dispatched as usual.
    This also means no new stock will be made this coming weekend (19th-21st November), as we will be busy packing away the pigs!

    Thanks for your patience and understanding!
  6. Now that I've settled into my new PHD position, you can expect to start seeing many more new items available for sale, much more often, than in previous weeks. This weekend we will be working on our stock of hedgie bags, tunnels, cozies and washer bags (and perhaps a few others thrown in for good measure)!

    Be sure to check back a couple of times a week for fabulous new items for sale!
  7. Cavy Couture are currently amassing a huge amount of stock! There are many items at varying levels of production, so you can expect to see lots of new premades for sale at the end of the week.
    We are awaiting delivery of more cord to finish lots of new washer bags, and also have many hammocks, cozies, hedgie bags and tunnels in production.

    So check back soon for new products, some in never before seen fabrics!
  8. As most of you will have seen by now, all Design Your Own items have been removed from the shop. All custom orders have now been completed, and I will be taking a few days off to rest!
    Later this week, we will begin production of our new stock, which we aim to consist of a wide variety of all of our products, in all sizes and colours. We will be adding a lot of new stock throughout September, and then at a relaxed rate after this month.

    Happy shopping, and we hope to see you again soon!
