Highlighted Reviews

— Joselyn

"My hamster loved this bedding he got used to it super quick"

— leslie

"When I first got my piggies this was the best, most absorbent litter, bedding on the market. Now it doesnt absorb as good as it used to. And it smells like it's already been used and dried to use again. Especially after washing thoroughly and contemplating."

Bottom Line

While the bedding is visually appealing and comfortable for pets, the declining absorption and odor control are significant drawbacks. Proceed with caution and consider alternatives if these issues are deal-breakers for you.
