I took my 2 little girls to the vet yesterday for a follow-up on their respiratory infection they had a few months ago (they're all better now
) My vet asked me about bedding and I told him I use CareFresh since I've been told that it's the most absorbent. He told me how even the best stuff can still carry a lot of dust.
So he recommended astroturf. In fact, he said he always recommends astroturf for small animals. He said it's great because there's no dust and therefore they're not breathing in all of their *ahem* waste. He told me get two pieces cut to the size of their cage, rinse them off with soap and water and alternate them two times a week.
Has anyone tried this before? It seems like an okay idea - not to mention cost efficent. I just put it in today. I'll report back to let you all know how it's going.
