Would it be okay to use shredded toilet paper as bedding?

Question

Would it be okay to use as bedding by itself, or only safe to use with another type of bedding?

Answer 1

I give to my hamster and she loves it.

Answer 2

Although it would be okay for nesting material, it doesn't sound practical to use as the only bedding. You'd need to use a *lot* of it & it would have to be changed frequently.  Also, don't use anything that is scented or has other additives in it.  You probably know that cedar & pine shavings are bad for small animals.  Perfume, bleach & other chemicals aren't good either.

We occasionally use paper towels as bedding, and regularly give them to our little guys for nesting material.  The kind we buy is unbleached.  Most t.p. has been bleached & you probably don't want your hammie to ingest it.

Answer 3

i think i'd be okay..

Answer 4

I wouldn't recommend using toilet paper at all, the animal might swallow it on accident, or even on purpose. Plus, it'll make sort of a soggy mess when cleaning cage.
