Oxbow Pure Comfort Small Animal Bedding, Natural

It’s way too dusty. We only used this in the corner of our cage in a litter box and the dust from the bedding gets everywhere and one of our rats is sick and wheezing from inhaling it. I had to switch to a different material litter and now I have more than 2/3 of the bag left and nothing to use it for. It’s unfortunate because I usually recommend this brand, just not this specific product. It might make your small pets have breathing issues like ours.

I purchased this product on the strength of the Oxbow brand which I have always found to be high quality. Not so much with this. Tried it for some newborn guinea pigs that I was fostering and it was pretty disappointing. Not much by way of odor control and once it’s wet, it’s wet. I would not recommend it.

I mixed the bedding with clay litter and paper shavings to create layers for my bunnies' litter boxes. They seem to like rooting around in the litter box.

Though Oxbow is a good/healthy known brand compared to others, I was hesitant from not knowing what the odor control was. I was hoping it was not baking soda since it is bad for rats & mice respiratory systems. Well, my boys and girls seem to be handling it much better than any other paper or aspen litter; this makes me happy. When I received the bag I was like "dang this is small", I did not expect it to go as far as it did. Looks are deceiving, this bag has lasted a lot longer than I expected. Not only was I able to use it in my giant rats cage & 20 gallon mice tank, I was able to use some in my 40 gallon gerbils tank (I ran out of her aspen litter and didn't have money to go get more) and Though Oxbow is a good/healthy known brand compared to others, I was hesitant from not knowing what the odor control was.

I am impressed with the amount that is actually in this bag, the odor control it has, the super soft texture and the very little dust it has. … more

I usually buy another brand of paper bedding, but found it to be growing smellier with each new shipment - not what I wanted for my little guinea piggies! I already feed them Oxbow hay and food, so I decided to give this bedding a try. It is much higher quality: smells way better, less dusty, and affordable to boot. Buy this bedding, you won't regret it!

Strongly recommend. Great product and I appreciate the fact that it is natural and not bleached.

There was a lot of dust while putting the bedding into my rabbits liter box. I was also looking for something more along the lines of a litter. This product is bedding which I had to pull apart to expand. It is pretty soft though.

Seems like a good product but my bunny does not like it. He keeps pushing it out of his cage or all to one side so he doesn’t have to lay on it.

I love Oxbow and buy a lot of their stuff. But this paper is dusty and not very good. I am very disappointed and sad. My pigs are sneezing. I I guss I have to try a different bedding. Very sad.

I was looking for something more along the lines of litter, not bedding. This is a good product but not for my rabbits.
