Re: Do I Need This Bedding?

No, my boys would just eat that. And I don't know that the dyes in the paper would be safe for them. If you want to give them a treat, take some plain undyed paper & run it through a shredder. But honestly, they'd appreciate a pile of fresh hay over paper anyday. And since you need to get that for their diet anyway, it should always be on hand!

My boys' favorite "toy" is a brown paper lunchbag stuffed with hay. Just toss it in, and watch the fun!

If you have one, try englarging the opening of an empty tissue box (I just cut all the way down, so it looks like a big door) and filling that with hay. Also too much fun watching them yank the hay out and shove the box around!

I have one of these toys and fill it with hay. It is so cute seeing Misty tugging at it to get the hay out because as she tugs it, it moves with her so. I once saw her put a front foot on it to stop it from moving towards her as she tugged it. It was so cute and it kept her occupied for ages.

Re: Do I Need This Bedding?

I agree, all those toys that come with "stuff that they like to use as bedding" I end up throwing away. I don't wany Aiden becoming sick because he ate some stuff the company thought might be good for them. I have a cave of fleece and Aiden spends all his free time in there. He doesn't need anything extra.
