yes they did lol. but i have a plan. since i had never sewed in my entire life i bought a sewing machine and am planning on doing the fittings very tight. they were pretty loose which could explain why they wanted to chew on the excess lol.. so im trying it cause i bought way more fleece than i could prob ever use haha here's a pic of their cage also.. well all i could get of it since it's between my couch and tv lol.
