This specialized substrate is designed for use in habitats housing small animals. It provides a comfortable and absorbent surface for creatures such as hamsters, gerbils, rabbits, and guinea pigs. Its composition typically includes processed natural fibers, often derived from cellulose.
The use of this material contributes to a cleaner and healthier environment for pets. It offers significant advantages over traditional bedding options such as wood shavings, including superior odor control, reduced dust, and enhanced moisture absorption. Historically, the availability of such materials marked a shift toward prioritizing the well-being of small companion animals and simplifying their care.
