 Best beddingDec 08, 2010
By No Name
I love that this is made from recycled paper so it's more environmentally friendly. As well, pine and cedar bedding can cause breathing problems for small animals so paper is really the best way to go. It does a very good job of absorbing smell and fluids. I vastly prefer this over any wood shaving type of bedding. Plus my bunny likes to chew on her bedding and I know that since it's just pain paper (no dyes, no wood chips) she's safe. Because she's litter trained I only need to spot clean the cage. One bag lasts me months at a time.

Great Bedding!May 08, 2011
By Anonymous
What you see in the picture is what you get! This natural pet bedding is the only type I use for my dwarf hamster and it works great! It is super absorbent and easy to clean up. As with any bedding though, it should be changed about every week to give your critter a clean environment!

It's a bit too dusty for my rats.Sep 03, 2011
By Anonymous
I have three rat babies. One neutered buck and two little girls and When I got them I was originally using Carefresh, which I used for years on My chinchillas, but for the Ratties I found it to be just too dusty. They sneezed and sneezed and sneezed. I took them to the vets who suggested we change the bedding first (because there was no porphyrin discharge and everyone was still happy and healthy with nice clear sounding lungs) I switched to sifted dust free aspen shavings and everyone stopped. So apparently everyone was sensitive to the bedding, which is a pity, because Carefresh is top notch with odor control and it's nice and soft. The aspen is okay, but I liked the Carefresh for that much better, but their health comes first.

 Never AgainDec 12, 2011
By Rebekah Beauchemin
Let me first say that I breed mice, and have been doing so on and off for about 18 years. I have a bit of an idea of what I'm saying, although I claim no professional expertise. I usually use pine chips (cedar is bad for small animals' lungs).
Well. I found this stuff on sale at petco online, and I was pretty enthusiastic, both about the price (BOGO) and about the facts that it's environmentally friendly and also supposedly more absorbent and less dusty.
So, the package arrived and I replaced the bedding in several cages with this stuff. First off, let me just point out that if a cow were to chew a notebook of recycled paper, spit it back up, and then let that dry in the sun, that's what this look like. Ok, fine, we're helping the environment, right? Except all the mice in the cage are covered in the dust so generously included in the package...again, I'm no expert, and I didn't MEASURE the dust particles, but I'm preeeety secure feeling when I say this stuff was more dusty than pine chips.
Ok, fine, it's dusty and hideous. Maybe it's more absorbent, which, honestly, isn't super important to me since I change the bedding every 2-3 days, but ok. So, my oldest child has a pair of female mice in his room, and while we were waiting for a replacement water bottle to arrive, we used a dish of water. Two days after changing the bedding, and this stupid stuff around the water dish was RANK and MOLDY. YUK! Can someone point out the advantages here?
After a month of using this stuff, I'm never buying this crap again. It's hideous, my mice push it out of their bedding areas (they don't with pine chips) and if it's more absorbent, it's also a breeding ground for everything you don't want in your cage.
Seriously, go with pine chips. They're cheaper, most small animals like to chew the thicker bits, and if your cage smells gross, you should have changed the bedding yesterday anyway.
Volume MisleadingMay 12, 2012
By Matt
States a 30 liters bag, packaged as a 12.5 liter bag that expands to 30 liters. Should include all information, not just partial. And you should put the volume in the title, not make customers search for it. Bedding is decent, but be wary of volume, as this was a lot less than I was expecting for the price.
