Chipsi Carefresh Confetti is bedding made from super soft cellulose fibres in cheerful colours. The fibres are lovely to crawl into, dig in and build a den with. According to the manufacturer, the colours are harmless to your pet and Carefresh absorbs more than twice as much moisture as ordinary straw. The material is 100% biodegradable.
How much you use depends on your pet. For small rodents such as mice, dwarf hamsters, hamsters and gerbils, the manufacturer advises a thick layer of at least 20 centimetres. For larger animals such as rats, guinea pigs and rabbits, spread a layer of about 10 centimetres. Press it down lightly until at least 5 centimetres remain.
Carefresh is also suitable for hamster scaping. It is soft and easy to dig in. Want the tunnels to hold better? Then mix Carefresh with another bedding, such as hay or hemp. Sprinkle some dried herbs through it now and then, so your pet has something to search for.

A pressed layer is firmer to walk on and absorbs moisture better. The manufacturer advises about 10 centimetres, lightly pressed down to at least 5 centimetres.
Yes, the manufacturer even recommends it. Hay or hemp gives the bedding more stability. For hay eaters such as rabbits and guinea pigs, fresh hay in a hay rack remains the most important thing.
