Kaytee Clean & Cozy White Paper Bedding, Made for Small Animals, 49.2 Liters

As someone who's just started raising a hamster again after half a decade of my last one (RIP Yogi, you old fart), I was nervous about buying this bedding as reviews lately have been hit or miss, but hamster owners with experience still recommended this bedding highly so I took the gamble to try to buy it on a good day and got two 50 liter bags (Technically 49.2 but ya know, semantics), since this time I want to give my hamster the best I can get.It came out great, the packaging was secure, the bedding was soft and fluffy after fluffing it up out of the bag, and thankfully no big dust issues have arisen, which is extra great because I am very allergic to dust. I've only sneezed once while setting my new hamster's (I got him almost a week ago as of writing this) cage up but I expected that given the type of bedding this is and it was only when I was trying to unpack it from the bag.My dwarf hamster has been burrowing under it (a good 6 inches of it) constantly and even has a frequent one he goes to in his cage's corner because it holds them better than Carefresh since that brand is denser than this one. Not only that, it doesn't smell, I've not had any odor come out of my new hamster's cage. Maybe it's too soon to tell, but I think it's still a good sign, I doubt it'll be hard to spot clean since hamsters don't make big messes.The only "problem" I have with it is because it is a really expanding fluffy bedding, it is deceiving when you try to fill a 6 inch pan to the near top with it, since the hamster walking around it will flatten it over time due to its lack of density. I recommend adding a different substrate to it to help lessen that, Aspen is great. That's not much of an issue but rather just a fault of what the product is made out of material-wise but it's not too big a deal to be a detriment.Despite the gamble that is seen in the reviews, this bedding is still recommended for hamsters and for good reason. It's soft, fluffy, safe for them to burrow in since it's just paper, great for burrows at that, and although the dustiness has been stated to have risen over the products lifespan, it's also been stated to be not as dusty as Carefresh would be which is why I chose this brand over that one. Lesser of the two evils in that regard, but I say get this for your hamsters nonetheless because the pros outweigh the cons when you get a good bag.

Over a year ago, I started purchasing 2-3 bags a month thru Amazon Subscribe and Save. Generally, the bags are good quality & dust free. However, the previous 2 months were of such poor quality with a dust content so significant, the white bedding was brown… worse was the dust plume & smell. My GP went into sneezing fits, as did I. Initially, I tried mixing with a locally purchased bags. However, the two bags received last month were so bad, I just threw them away & purchased locally. Obviously, bedding is expensive & I had decided to end this subscription. However, with May being a crazy, busy month, I forgot. I was thrilled to discover the 2 bags this month are CLEAN! This is the only brand of white bedding available on Amazon that is soft, absorbent, dye free… & usually dust free… and also a reasonable price. I change my Guinea pig bedding far more than is probably necessary, thus bedding is a huge expense. This product is available in larger size bags at a fairly reasonable price. Given delivery is of high importance for me, I will continue the subscription, re-evaluating on month to month basis.

I bought the Kaytee Clean & Cozy White Paper Bedding for my guinea pigs, and it’s been great! The bedding is soft and absorbent, making it perfect for keeping their cage clean and comfortable. I love how it controls odor and keeps the cage smelling fresh for longer.It’s also easy to clean and change out, which is a huge plus. My guinea pigs seem to love it, and I feel confident that they’re comfortable and happy. If you're looking for a reliable bedding option for small animals, I highly recommend this one!

I've used Kaytee for my guinea pigs since 2009 and I've never been disappointed. Kaytee has good absorbance and is quite good at covering the smell before the next change. I have a 2.5 ft by 1.5 ft cage for one guinea pig and change it weekly. The bedding is at a good price, and even better since I have it on a subscription order.

Cheaper than Petco when you’re in a pinch and need bedding asap, makes my life so easy that this is readily available for next day/two day shipping! Oreo (and late Hammie) absolutely love (loved) this bedding. It’s nice and comfy cozy! The size of this bag is what makes it so worth it, especially going thru it often between a large cage(oreos apartment) and his play pen (vacation home)!

This is a great bedding. It holds burrows great, great quality, and it comes in a good amount too. I only had one issue, that is, it can be very dusty, but that’s pretty much it. So just keep an eye on that.

This stuff makes great bedding for small animals. It's rather like compressed shredded paper towels. Very absorbent to last a long time! One package goes much further than it looks, too, because the product expands in volume when you pull it out and fluff it up. It's super soft, too, unlike wood shavings. My gerbils love to burrow in it!

The media could not be loaded. My hamster loves this bedding sometimes be eating it to lol the smell is natural and works so well for her to play in.its a fluffy thick but soft, and easy to clean ! I love how it’s the color white and I can she her fur when she’s digging around in it. I’m working on buying her a bigger enclosure.
