Cage Diapers

April 5th, 2007

The name really gets your imagination moving, doesn’t it?  The name  really threw me off at first.  I didn’t think I could like a product called “Cage Diapers“, but I was happily surprised.  Cage Diapers are a heavy paper cage liner for the bottom of your rabbit’s (or any other small animal) cage.  Why not just use newspaper?  I always did.  My rabbits have free run of a bedroom, but I have a dog crate that they can go into.  It contains their litter box and water bottle and it is where I put their hay.  I lined both the crate tray and the litter box with about 7 layers of newspaper.  It worked fine, until clean-up time.  Trying to clean-up the mess without the paper disintegrating was a challenge.  With the Cage Diapers, I only have to use one for the crate tray and one for the litter box.  Clean-up is a breeze.  Even when being a little torn (Smudge loves to dig and scratch at the paper), it rolls up without falling apart.  Made of unbleached pulp, it is okay if my rabbits nibble on them a bit (always watch for pets that will devour a lot of it.  Too much of anything has the potential to cause problems).  Because it is made from wood pulp, it is also biodegradable which I love since I compost! These have definitely made a difference in my rabbit care routine.
