She hasn't actually lobbed it, she just feels like it so it's okay?

I do wonder sometimes what the hell goes on in other peoples heads!

I thought newspaper is only bad if they ate it? We used to use it for our Bailey under straw or hay because it made cleaning him out easier, but he started eating it so we stopped and just have straw and/or hay now.

He's in a shed with a cat flap out to his run anyway now. He doesn't use little house things, he also hates sawdust but he only goes to the toilet in his run, not inside so he doesn't need cleaning out as often. We've given him what he prefers and what is best for him regardless of cost, which at one point was really hard for us but we put the animals first.

I prefer to use the natural bedding types but if it was best for him to be on this megazorb stuff I would use it. From what Crofty's said it sounds cheap enough anyway.

Re: Rabbits paws sore and skin flaking

Yep newspaper is fine as long as they dont eat alot of it! megazorb is the best i have found and cheap because im a poor nurse lol!


Cavy gal

Straw of hay is better than using woodshavings if you dont want to try megazorb, woodshavings really arent a great bedding for buns.

If you want advice on his behaviour i am only too happy to help, your comments do cause me concern though

I understand her point as well, but the animals welfare should come first!
