Organic Bamboo Cotton Fleece?
I've used a 100% bamboo batting in guinea pig sacks, beds etc instead of synthetic batting before and it works really well. I especially like that it's anti-bacterial.
As for the bamboo + cotton fleece, I'm no expert, but I think it really has to be polyester to wick properly. I don't think that natural fibres wick like polyester fleece.

Uh, oh. I just ordered some organic heavy fleece from Near Sea Naturals and paid quite a bit for it. Rats!!!!
I tried looking this up, and found it hard to find unbiased sources. I did, however, find this article: http://www.treehugger.com/files/2007/01 ... eets_k.php

Just an update. I ordered some wonderful heavy organic fleece from http://www.nearseanaturals.com. Beautiful stuff. Shrank like the dickens so I didn't order enough, but.... the darn stuff doesn't absorb AT ALL. In fact, the pee puddles on the top! I tried turning it over - same thing. It is not treated in any way, so go figure. 6 yards of expensive organic cotton fleece. I think I will make a lounge outfit with the 4 yards I didn't use. The other is already stained after 2 uses. Sigh...
