Carefresh Bedding
Date: January 13, 2006
"Excellent bedding for my mice and my rabbits litter pan! Little to no dust and does not leave dust on pets. The litter itself does not smell. I've got many pets in the house, if you didn't see them, you'd never know. The house does not smell like litter o"

Best litter on the market.......
Date: December 10, 2005
"When I picked up my two youngsters from Petco, I bought this litter because it was the litter they were used to. I was concerned that the odor would be a problem since I feed Becky and Pumpkin yogurt and fresh vegetables everyday. To my surprise the litte"

Dust & Odor Control Not So Great...
Date: November 19, 2009
"CareFresh claims it's not that dusty but upon breaking it up in our 10 gallon tank, there's dust everywhere, so much so that our hamster sometimes ends up sneezing once we put her back in.
Additionally, before we started using aspen pellets in conjunction with CareFresh, her habitat would begin to smell in a matter of days, even when she didn't clear her bathroom corner. Absorbency wasn't all that great either, as she would sometimes walk over the moistened litter and begin to smell like her urine (no such issue once we started using the aspen pellets).
I unfortunately can't compare it to similar bedding products (especially not the pellets, since they aren't really soft, but more for odor control), but I think once we run out of CareFresh we'll be trying other products to see if there's anything better out there."

Good Product but expensive
Date: November 12, 2009
"This bedding works very well for absorbency and odor control. However, if you have a large cage it is prohibitively expensive. It is also a bit messy, as is all loose bedding."

Consistantly good
Date: November 4, 2009
"I have used this bedding for my guinea pigs over the last 3 years and never considered using anything else. It's easy to keep clean and really absorbs any odors. My friends forget we actually have a pet in the house sometimes."

Works great
Date: November 4, 2009
"We have been using this instead of pine shavings for a couple of years now. Line the cage with baking soda, then the "litter" then this bedding. Keeps the cage fresher for longer and really works great. Just watch that there is no moisture in the bedding when you get it.....could cause problems."

Great litter overall
Date: November 2, 2009
"This litter is the best overall due to the low dust, the less messiness and the absorbency. I don't know any litter out there that is better for my chins. I've tried the Kaytee Soft-Sorbent one. Its ok but if you have very active chins expect some outside litter the cage. Sometimes the pellets get caught between their toes. But that's a good alternative if you cant get this one."

pretty good

"the bedding absorbs liquids much faster than shredded aspen and controls odor a lot better but it lets off a bit of dust. i like the color ones better...but petco doesnt sell them online in the 60 liter form!"

great deal
Date: October 20, 2009
"I have used this bedding for our 3 guinea pigs for several years now and it is very absorbent and keeps odors to a minimum. Our guinea pigs are in seperate cages so we use alot of this with our weekly changes.
We prefer this over the colored."

It's OK
Date: October 20, 2009
"This bedding is very absorbent and soft on my ferrets feet, but it needs changed very frequently to keep the odor down. It's too expensive to go through that quickly. It also seems to make my babies sneezy."

A little dusty but still effective
Date: October 6, 2009
"We've been using this bedding since our vet told us to switch to paper because of our guinea pigs' allergy problems. It's a little dusty when you first put it in the cage, but it does a good job with absorbing odor. And it's a good deal if you purchase this bedding in bulk on the PETCO web site."

No stinky piggies
Date: October 2, 2009
"We love this bedding and it absorbs the smell really well. Its really expensive, but we buy it in bulk and on sale and we save about $90 doing it that way. I'd recommend this product, and if you're an educated pig owner you'll know that its much healthier for your critters. Try lining your cage with newspaper and taping the sheets together for easy cleanup (you just roll the paper when you clean up), then adding a layer of shredded newspaper before you put the carefresh down on top. It makes the carefresh go a lot further.
We love Carefresh!"

Smart buy
Date: September 29, 2009
"It makes sense to buy recycled safe paper. No worries about splinters and it saves trees. It is so much softer then wood."
