Hey, I recently bought a two pet mice from the markets. One seems so active and settled in just fine and so did the other one although it's not active at all! It doesn't like to be woken up and even sleeps through the night (when they're meant to be lost active). The one that sleeps also...

Has anyone talked to their vet about Feline pine (non-clumping)? I’ve used it for a little over a year now and have not noticed any problems. But my cousin told her vet she was using it and her vet told her it’s bad for them and seemed very concerned. Everything I read online says it’s healthy...

Hello :D, This is my first time visiting this site, so I apologize in advance if people have already asked and answered this question. So I have six rats currently, two older boys in their own cage and one middle aged girl and three young girls in their own cage. I have looked up on multiple...

Is it normal for rats to eat their bedding? I mean I know females nest but this not a female who's moving or eating bedding. Pop is a male, 4-5 inches long from nose to butt, and he's been eating bedding lately? Should I be worried about him? I've only had him and his brother since Thursday...

I use crushed up walnut shells for my Bearded Dragon's bedding. Is that the same as sand and can it cause problems for my Bearded Dragon?:confused:

Well, NoName has given birth! So we now have 8 new borns. All alive, healthy, big and moving, feeding well too. I'm so happy. I'd read that some can die at birth, so I'm really glad that despite her young age, they've all been born healthy. They're a day old and very large, and the mother...

I just got a 4 month old flemish giant. He's not neutered so i know that is part of the problem. He sleeps in his litter box and pees in his bed and poops in another corner. Im new to this so I'm not sure if I'm doing things the way I should. I have carefresh and hay in the litter box and his...

Well I'm renovating my C&C cage and I'm trying to decide if I should try fleece. How much more/less work is it to keep clean? Does it have less or more odour? How often should it be washed and what should I put underneath it? Thanks..looking for any advice..good or bad you can offer :)

I saw something at petsmart that had" real rose parts" in it. Its by kaytee they have a mint scent and a lavander scent. I heard that somebody used it and their gp ate it and died. I was wondering if i could use it for my ratties and if the story was fake.

My girls Layla and Juno are 3 months old now, and they're both becoming amazingly affectionate and friendly. Juno especially acts more like a male than a female, the way she's always in the mood for cuddles. I love them so much, it's fantastic having rats again. ^.^ One thing...

I have two new rat baby boys (Born at 12/10/10) and I've been having some issues with them peeing and pooping on only the top level of their cage. I can't seem to locate a single corner they use as a bathroom and it is causing a huge mess in my place. The mess is horrible and because there is...

It seems like my chin (Puffy, 11 yr old male) is urinating everywhere and it's becoming a nuisance. I've heard it said that most animals won't urinate where they sleep or eat but mine doesn't seem to care! He urinates in his bath box, next to his food, and on his 'bed'. He sleeps in a plastic...

Just wondering what everyone thinks. Where I live Carefresh seems to be the most reccomended bedding for my hamster, so its what I use. But there is a downfall, the price. About twice the cost of regular wood chip bedding the same size. Though I bought it because my hamster cage is in my room...

We have been using pet store bedding for our bunny in her litter area. We have been told by another bunny owner that cat litter is better for attracting the bunny to do her "business". Need suggestions on this. thanks

Ok, I was just wondering what I could use for home-made rodent bedding?

I was wondering if Aspen bedding is o.k. to use? The pet store I go to, to buy my supplies told me it's harmful, but I know a lot of people use it on here.

I just bought a bag of litter like breeder's choice. Its called 'Eco Litter' by 'trouble and trix' or Masterpet. I've used Breeder's choice litter for my girls before and its been fine. Its little paper peletts and a little bit hard on their feet but they can still dig and it doesn't have dust...

I'm new to this forum =) found it on google, you guys were at the top and seem active and know your stuff, so I joined right away :wave: Anyway, so I'm 17, but haven't had hamsters since I was 8, and I didn't really "take care" of them at that age... I remember some things, and I still have the...

I see in a lot of pictures that people are using what looks to be fleece blankets instead of bedding. What are your opinons on this?
