Pet Bedding "Guinea Pigs" Product Reviews

Salutations! 
Okay, man, it's great to be back... I love writing these blog things. Since, I currently don't have any type of camera to make Youtube videos, I have to do "this". Anyway as you can probably tell, I'm going to be reviewing pet bedding for Guinea Pigs. 

*Here are the different types of Pet bedding you can choose from*

1. Fleece (most commonly used for C&C cages)

2. Carefresh Bedding (expensive)

3. Boxo Bedding (pretty inexpensive)

4. Critter Care (commonly mistaken for Carefresh- otherwise pretty inexpensive)

5. Aspen 

6. Eco Bedding (paper bedding)

7. Newspaper (not recommended)

Okay here we go, 

Fleece Pros and Cons 

Pros: It was very tidy, no bedding was kicked out the side of the bars. It added a nice pop of color in the cage. Guinea pigs loved it! They would lay down and sleep on it. Quick cleanup 

Cons: It smelled bad, had to be changed often. Guinea pigs would sometimes crawl under the fleece and poo and pee there. 

Carefresh Pros and Cons

Pros: I loved the colors, it was very soft. My guinea pigs enjoyed this bedding as well. Absorbent. 

Cons: Wasn't a big difference as far as smell goes, Poop and pee showed very much through the white bedding but that was expected. Too expensive. 

Boxo Pros and Cons

Pros: Cheap, Absorbent, Very soft, Guinea Pigs loved it, 

Cons: Not a pleasant smell when I first opened the bag. No color options. 

Critter Care Pros and Cons

Pros: It was comfortable for the guinea pigs. Has different color options.

Cons: It smelled very bad when you first open the bag, some what dusty, It's very hard to find Critter Care Colors now. 

Aspen Pros and Cons 

Pros: It isn't bad for the guinea pigs. (i've personally have never used Aspen for my Guinea pigs)

Cons: Too dusty, and bits can get into the Guinea pigs eye.

Eco Bedding Pros and Cons (Note: I haven't tried this product since 2009, but they have added a new line supposedly more absorbent)

Pros: Loved the Colors, Very Inexpensive.

Cons: Didn't hold odors very well, bad absorbency, Small bag.

Newspaper (Note: Do not use this on a regular basis, I only used this once on emergency when we had ran out of bedding and couldn't go to the store)

Pros: None but they were not made for real bedding 

Cons: BAD BAD BAD. Terrible but they were never made for bedding so this review is pretty much pointless :)

Anyway, the bedding I am currently using and love is BOXO bedding :) good luck on choosing your pets preferred bedding. Hopefully this helped in your search. If you would like me to test a certain bedding or product for you, just leave a comment or contact me from the Home Page *B
