Kaytee Soft Granule Blend Small Animal Bedding, 27.5-L

So we have been using this with our rabbits since we adopted them earlier this year. As rabbit owners, I can say this littler works perfectly- it does its job and has little mess outside the litter box. As gardeners, I can say this litter is great for compost- it breaks down pretty quickly, along with the bunny beans, and adds to our vegetable compost to create a nutrient-rich area for our gardens. However, I am SUPER SAD that Kaytee has discontinued this product. After having it taken out of my Chewy auto-ship order twice, I reached out directly to Kaytee- who confirmed they discontinued production of this product due to lack of sales. This is upsetting because it is wonderful for the enumerated So we have been using this with our rabbits since we adopted them earlier this year.

This is upsetting because it is wonderful for the enumerated reasons above. Kaytee directed me towards the same product, but with a lavender scent- which I can't use because one of our bunnies is super sensitive to scents and would not be happy with that litter. I am really confused as to why they can still produce the same product with a lavender scent and not offer the original, even if it is in smaller quantities to allow for a lower amount of sales. I really wish Kaytee would reconsider this decision- it's obvious by looking at the reviews here and elsewhere that people love this litter. … more

This seems to work quite well at absorbing urine/odor for my four rats. I don't seen any real dust when pouring it out let alone when they dig about in it. I will probably still try other beddings for their hides that may be a little softer but overall I am happy with this.

I've wanted to find a bedding that wouldn't cause too much dust nor create an uncomfortable space for my guinea pig, and so far this bedding seems to make the cage look very organized! I was a little worried for her chewing on the little beads and chunks of the bedding but it looks like her food keep her very occupied, good!

I've tried every version of bedding on the market. This is my favorite. I have 2 male pigs who enjoy making the biggest mess they possibly can. Wood shavings don't absorb, regular paper just stinks 24/7, and fleece is just a mess you have to clean up every day twice a day. This bedding is a blessing from God. I can go a full 2 weeks between cage cleanings, 2.5 if the boys decide they want to be sane. I use 1/3 of the bag per cleaning, so it lasts me about 1.5 months per bag. There's 3 versions of this that I'm aware of; the rose petal version, the lavender version, and the plain version. I haven't seen the rose petal version in a while, it's possible that it's actually just the lavender one, I've tried every version of bedding on the market. This is my favorite.

The pigs will eat the rose petals in the petal one and sometimes will collect all the petals in the cage and make a petal pile. It's very cute. The lavender is fun, its purple. It smells about the same as the plain. The plain is the heavy lifter. It does what you expect. No stink, minimal mess, great price. … more

This is the only bedding I will use for the litter pan side of my guinea pig cage. It is crazy absorbent, kills all odors, doesn't come with its own odor like other paper bedding (care fresh, I'm looking at you), and is very easy to spot scoop. It even kills the odors of my kitchen garbage can (which I use to spot clean the cage). The only disappointing aspect of this bedding is that Chewy and other websites have increased the price by five dollars per bag. I really hope this isn't a sign that it is being discontinued or something.

I've had rats for years and this is by far the best bedding I have ever used for them. Any other bedding and I have URIs without fail (unless it's Yesterdays News, but hard paper pellets don't rank well for comfort!). Wood bedding of any kind being my absolute least favorite, and fluffy paper being just before it. Always have had issues with that, WITH daily spot cleaning and weekly changes. I can do bi-weekly changes with this litter, but with fewer rats I'd be able to change less often. One bag can fill each stainless steel pan for my double critter nation with enough cushion for my rats. This bedding is a very fine paper granule, very low dust, if any (the granules can get caught in their I've had rats for years and this is by far the best bedding I have ever used for them.

This bedding is a very fine paper granule, very low dust, if any (the granules can get caught in their fur when they're hunkered down, but it's never caused an issue for me or them. They shake it off or I pet it off). It's also very easy to spot clean. I also don't notice that funky rat smell they have sometimes. I had 7 boys, now down to 4, and the smell has been nonexistant with proper cleaning. You do definitely have to freeze this bedding, as is recommended for all bedding. My only lice cases happened when I forgot to freeze for 24 hours, but that is a risk you run with any small animal bedding you don't freeze. My rats have never tried eating this bedding, ever. They're much more comfortable and much healthier on this bedding than any other I've used - Cannot recommend this enough! If you do use the 3" stainless steel pans, or shallow levels, it WILL get everywhere, however (but what bedding won't - this is very easily vacuumed or swept up). … more

Smells great. Very clean and ethical. Comes in a huge bag. Soft not sticky easy clean up

I love this! I wish I knew about this sooner. I used paper bedding for my skinny pigs kitchen area, and they just got paper bedding everywhere, I hated it! And within 2 days my whole living room was smelly. I started using granule about 2 weeks ago, and I must say it’s amazing. I change the granule every week as to having to change paper bedding every 2 days. It’s easier to spot clean daily. Easier to clean up or vacuum. I would highly recommend this for guinea pigs.

I bought this for our bunny, thinking it would be safe to put in her litterbox. When we ran out of our current material, my daughter opened this bag to fill Marshmallow's litter box. She just happened to see the warning on the bag - avoid consumption. WHAT?? Rabbits are notorious chewers, and chew on all kinds of things. I was so disappointed in this purchase. This may work for small animals that do not "munch" on everything, but not rabbits.

Bought this to add a second bedding in my hamsters cage. Big mistake. It stuck to everything even my sryian hamster! Its not for nesting just another texture to walk on. I will not be buying again!!
