anyone got rats?

no it does, you get the odd big chunk out of it but its so varied in sizes its like tetris, it holds bears nest very solid, its quite sad at clean out!

Aww, poor Bear!

Best I could sneak! You can see its holding the sleepy bit lol

Theres a bit of megazorb for his wee corner and he shredded a toilet tube too which is the white bits

I use finacard with the hams as it dosnt tangle as bad in hammies fur (the odd strand dose, but most of it is tangle free) and with the buns in their litter tray, I previously used the papellet from finacard.
220 litres finacard £13 vs 85 litres of megazorb £14 inc post

The papellet is 75 litres for £24 it sounds costly, but it was really absorbent and well worth the money, I am on finacard as its cheaper but when using the papellet there was no smell from the cages, when it came to cleaning out, barely anything needed to be taken only wee corners (Syrians. It helps with Chinese smells but their wee is highly pungent)

Finacard is more dusty then hemp, but hemp feels like little needles!
If it only a litter tray ild def say go for papellet! But a whole clean it's down to preference and allergys

I've always used biocatolet as it doesnt get wet really and absorbs the smell abit
