Our take

Bedding is a health issue, not just comfort: the aromatic softwood shavings, cedar and pine, that many people reach for give off oils linked to respiratory problems in small animals. Paper bedding like Carefresh sidesteps that, is very absorbent so the cage stays drier and less smelly, and is soft to burrow and nest in. It is 99% dust-free, which matters for little lungs. Spot-clean daily and change it fully each week. Good bedding is one of the quiet foundations of keeping a small pet healthy.
