SKB hope this helps a bit, it is hard to get a good idea from a photo but here's one of just the softacard & one next to some fitch for a bit of a comparison.

I'd say not quite as soft as fitch or fitch at it's best anyway but it is soft, it's just egg boxes so you can probably imagine how it feels really. It has more of a fitch feel than a cardboard feel if that makes sense!

Ok thank you - just an option as I’m running low on Fitch have enough to do a spot clean on Liquorice’s cage. As depending when Fitch comes back into stock might have to give this a go - just wanted to make sure it was soft like Fitch and wouldn’t irritate Humbug stump. As from pictures on ratrations I couldn’t work out if edges might be rough.

Although I am quite intrigued by this softacard, cypher, do you have a picture of what it looks like up close as cant properly envision it properly by looking at images online. As might be worth a try.
I have put the softacard in my gerbil cage - it's lovely and hardly any dust at all - I have attached a photo of it in my gerbil enclosure - seems to hold tunnels well too

Thank you Emsmum for the photo - depending if Fitch come back into stock before I use the last of my 20kg bag I might have to get some softacard instead.

Shipping is free (or included in the price rather) for most of the UK so unless you're in one of the post code areas in the drop down menu or in Northern Ireland you just select no surcharge.
