In Reply to: isnt it amazing that cedar hamster bedding is harmful to even hamsters?? posted by sue3 on February 06, 2001 at 01:21:20:

A while ago before I was hooked up to the net, Yeah im on of those late ones just got internet last year, What the heck did I do with out it???
Anyway I was buying the pine bedding for years, we had hamsters, gerbils died after only a year with us or some even 6 months, Now I cleaned there cages every day, to every other day, they were fed what they were suppose to, the were loved and given attention, and when each one died We (my girls and me) cried. We decided to never get one again, to heart breaking, I then get on the net to find that not only were they probably suffering, I DID IT TO THEM by using TOXIC bedding, I feel HORRIBLE about it. Now that im more educated, i try to tell pet stores (of course they dont listen), but we have added a beautiful sweet adn loveable guniea pig who is doing GREAT. I also wish they would just be honest, people will buy the products even more if they would make a SAFE bedding.

: wonder when the pet industry will have to pay..
: iguana bedding is harmful to iguanas
: hamster bedding harmful to hamsters
: really sad that joe q. public cant rely on packaging. there are way to many joes out there that do just that too.
