"If you give your hamsters a treat when you get home they'll come to expect it and be waiting for you!"

This is so true! But sometimes I pity them when it's not time for food. Keep on hooping into the food plate and jumping around the cage for my attention.

By the way, I have noticed a new type of bedding since mid of last year. Looks like marshmallow / cotton cube. Some brand even comes in few colors. Price is unexpectedly expensive though. Anybody tried that ?

I'm thinking of changing my bedding to this type since I have been spending quite some times on filtering the wood shaving for the every time I change the bedding. Wood shaving always in very sharp shape and a lot dust.

what is the brand called? bear in mind that cotton is dangerous to hamsters, they can swallow it and gets caught in their digestive system or the cotton can get tangled in their limbs cutting off blood supply ..

I use paper bedding - expensive but also a bit of dust. Like you said wood shavings are sharp and the hamsters cannot pouch/carry it to nest or play with ease.

arr maybe not really cotton, just the shape and color look at least to me like cotton or something edible LOL.
But now that you mentioned you are using paper bedding i think it's paper bedding then.
Can't recall the brand but it's something like Carefresh or Kaytee bedding that I look through online.

Mind give some idea where you got yours and the price is ? I find them more comfortable.

Nah, not really Carefresh though. I seriously forgot about the brand already. But the bedding is that type. Got color and non-color 1 then anti-odor type also. Saw them in a pet shop in Cheras leisure mall. Quite pricey. Small pack 1 around RM50.00 big 1 RM100.00 like that. Possible that the 1 i saw is the 1 you are having.
