Answer 1

Answer 2

USE CAREFRESH;; ii THiNK iTS THE HEALTHiEST iiVE FOUND TO USE, BECAUSE SOME CAN GiVE YOUR RAT ALLERGiES, AND YOU DONT WANT THEM SNEEZiNG ALL NiTE. =]

Answer 3

My favorite is fleece blankets. :] That's what I use for my rattie boys. You buy a certain amount and keep them for good. Just wash 'em, and reuse them! Plus, no chance of mites or lice in the bedding & no dust or oils.

If that's not your thing, I like Yesterday's News second. :P Carefresh gives my boys the sniffles.. too dusty for them. I use YN for their litter mainly, these days.

Answer 4

carefresh ultra! supersoft and absorbent!

Answer 5

carefresh would be the best one

Answer 6

Answer 7

Carefresh definitely...

shavings work for my hamsters but wen i used them for my rat she wouldnt stop sneezing.

Answer 8

HAMSTER SHAVINGS.  FINE SAVINGS.

Answer 9

carefresh is good, but i also like yesterday's news.  it's a harder pellet but very absorbent and odor controlling.

i would stay away from any wood shavings of any kind.

Answer 10

Aspen is best, all of the other wood shavings have harmful fumes. I have carefresh is good, but it is man made, so it may have chemicals. Do NOT  but living world fluff, it is loaded up with chemicals and your rat can get tangled in it. So your rat can make a soft bed, you can through some normal toliet paper in their cage. Good Luck!

Answer 11

I have 17 pet rats and you can either use carefresh, yesterdays news which you can buy big bags of it in the cat section of the petstore or Softsorbent. None of them have the dust issue with them. Softsorbent is messy but a little goes along way. I use carefresh and change the bedding out about every 3 to 4 days
