Is this bedding good for rats? Is it dust free?

Yes it should be fine. Works very well for my hamsters. I have not noticed any dust.

It will work for rats, I had this when I had rats and they would drag it around their mansion :) and chew on uIt. It will last them a long time.

I have used this kind of bedding, for years, in my Mini Rex bunny's cage and it has worked better than anything I have ever tried. Also, he has lived for 13+ years and that is much, much longer than expected. Obviously it hasn't hurt him a bit. As a matter of fact, it keeps his cage cleaner longer and completely controls urine odor. I cannot speak to it's use for guinea pigs or hedgehogs other than this so maybe checking with a vet wouldn't be a bad idea unless someone else has used it specifically for the animals you have.

I don't see why not,depending on how big your rats are,this is kind of a small play pen,maybe more suited for hamsters.I have two guinea pigs & it's a bit too small for them & my one pig likes to chew on the mat which may be unsafe.But for travel...I think this might be good enough.

Yes I have had the allersoft cotton mattress cover on my king Temperpedic mattress for about a year and have found it to be great and no dust mites. I have washed it once and it came out fine.

Says in the description that it's made from recycled pulp waste. Think of newspaper that's been ground up and dried but fluffy. I don't think it could be inhaled. There are no small particles and when I spread it no dust is created. It's very comfortable for my rabbit. He definitely prefers it over any other bedding I've tried.

Yes. We have birds and it has helped keep the dust down. We actually own two. We wash the one not in use and let it dry and always have an extra to put in.

I don't have any issues with dust. Only if I have to add a lot of litter at one time which would happen with any color. I just wipe with a damp rag once a month and it's good.

Hi Robert....I have a Siamese..so she leaves hair all over my furniture, but just picked it up to check and just saw a few....less than where she actually sits. Didn't notice dust, but it's under my desk...seems to be less hair than on regular furniture...doesn't seem to stick as easily to the foot cushion. I really love mine..very comfy.

It does work for rats. I've noticed a big drop in rat visits in all of the places I used to find their remnants. But as the package says, it only lasts two or three months for a package before the smell goes away.

I have never had rats but this is a nice cage that's easy to clean, easy to take apart & put together and easy to open & close. I'm sure it would be great! It's bigger than the cages at pet stores. I would highly recommend it.

It's fine for one rat. But rats are social, and we have a mama and her two daughters. The cage is too small for three grown rats. It is chew proof though.

Ours started out dust free, but over the years it has changed and is now quite dusty. Maybe less than others, but still disappointing.

My rabbit loves it. Its safe for her to eat and it absorbs odor so I don't have to clean as often.I don't notice the smell of the pellets because I only use a cup full and put it directly into her litter box. If you use it as bedding then you may notice the smell more.

It's perfect for rats if they aren't big chewers, I bought these and my girls chewed through them the same day. But they did look nice for a few hours �

I just threw my empty bag out. I store mine in a giant plastic cereal container. I have to because my cat finds the fish ingredient very tasty. So do the rats. They have a really smooth coats since switching to this food. They don't itch anymore either.

I would say probably not because the pans get DIRTY REAL QUICK and the pee and poop sticks to them like crazy. I am actually selling all of mine as my ferrets absolutely hated the cage.. and they REFUSED to use their litter box.. and it is just TOO dirty for my rats. I am keeping ONE for my hedgehog though since he seems to be the only one to enjoy it.Also rabbits need A LOT of space. Check out C&C; cages! :D
