can i use shredded paper as hamster bedding?

yea becuse i do that for my rats and i have no problemz, and i have a rat that just had babies, i use it for them and there is no problem... just add some T.P. to make it a lil soft

maybe the reason is if the pine bedding might have some pitch on it that could get on there feet. I know that they will like the paper. They will use it to make a next. I have always found they love the paper. It should be fine.

Paper has sharp edges and that might irritate your hamsters feet and they could hurt their eyes on it too. You shouldn't use paper that has a lot of ink on it either because it's not healthy for them. It was a good thought though!

It might be better to use toilet paper. The edge of shredded paper might end up giving them cuts (you know you hate paper cuts!) I wouldn't use the shredded paper. It won't absorb everything as well, and might end up make your hammy's cage smell worse!

No, it is very easy for them to choke on or cause a fatal blockage. You would be better with regular pet store bedding (not wood chips)

hamsters are very delicate. i would not recommend it. it is okay for rabbits because they are bigger and don't think about eating it plus they don't spend as much time in the bedding so ni would say no.

yea i think itll be good :)

i used it for my rabbits allof the time!!!

and i never heard it was bad for them
