Product Description

Kaytee Aspen Bedding and Litter is manufactured with all natural aspen shavings specially processed to eliminate dust and wood debris found in other bedding.

Important information

Directions

At least once per week, remove all bedding and wash the enclosure with a mild soap solution. Rinse habitat thoroughly with clean water to ensure the removal of soap residue. Frequency of habitat cleaning depends on the size of your pet’s home and number of animals. Always replace bedding with fresh product. Maintaining a clean habitat will help your pet from developing respiratory problems due to ammonia build up in the habitat caused by urine.

We recommend that you do not solely rely on the information presented and that you always read labels, warnings, and directions before using or consuming a product

Can't beat the savings on this bedding!

Can't beat the savings on this bedding!
Living on Maui, I am used to the fact that many times I am forced to pay higher prices for certain retail items purchased locally. One good example of this is pet supplies for our Holland Lop rabbit; at the local pet store on the island, I was shelling out $14.99 for the 3200 cubic inch package of Kaytee Aspen Bedding. Several months ago, I realized that I could purchase this same product on amazon.com for $9.43 (and, since I am a member of the Amazon Prime program, there was no additional charge for shipping & handling).Just the other day I came across the 8.0 cubic foot package of Kaytee Aspen Bedding on amazon.com for $21.99 - this is a huge savings for me over anything I could find locally, and I am thrilled to be able to save so much on this product! In addition, due to the large size & weight of the product, not only is shipping free, but amazon.com sends it out to me by UPS, so I get it within 2 days.My only complaint (and this is why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5) is that the bedding was not sealed in any kind of plastic wrapping, but simply in brown packaging paper. It's not as secure as the plastic wrapping might be, and as you can see from the photo I uploaded, there is a small rip in the package....and the bedding is starting to make a mess everywhere. I would recommend plastic packaging for this type of product in the future.UPDATE as of September 2012: I just re-ordered this product, and was very pleased that this time it was wrapped very securely in thick plastic packaging (see photo). The price did increase by a substantial percentage, but for my situation (living in Maui), even this cost - including with it the free shipping through Amazon Prime membership - still beats anything else I could either purchase locally or order from the mainland.
Thank you for your feedback
