NEVER use fluffy/cotton bedding! Ive heard lots of horror stories of hamsters that have died because of it

It is so bad for them and i wish pet stores would stop selling them!
i agree with dreamtree- the cheapest and most safe/reliable brands of bedding I trust is Kaytee Clean n Cozy and any Carefresh hamster bedding that isnt coloured! call me old fashioned but i personally would NEVER give my hamster brightly coloured bedding like the "Colourful Creations" line. Carefresh Ultra, Custom (for hamsters and gerbils) and Natural are good options instead. If youre opting for Kaytee, be very careful not to get the Clean n Cozy in Lavender scent! Ive heard of pets dying because of the strong scent! I smelled a ripped open bag at my pet store, and it lingered and stuffed my nose for around 10 minutes! Scented bedding will cause excessive sneezing, respiratory issues and more problems! please be careful xx
