A pet products company focused on small animals has launched a floral bedding for rabbits that allows the cute lagomorphs to enjoy a scented bedding that does not use artificial fragrances containing harmful chemicals.
Small Pet Select, based in Louisville, Kentucky, USA, has created the floral bedding in three varieties: marigold, rose, and lavender. The products are created with premium white paper bedding infused with real flower petals and are designed specifically for rabbits and guinea pigs.
The bedding is made with unbleached paper, scented naturally, with no additives, dyes, or irritants. It is 99% dust-free, absorbs urine with odour control, and creates a comfortable nesting area for small pets, the company said in a press release. It said the bedding creates a beautiful habitat while maintaining a high standard of safe and sustainable bedding for small pets.
Artificially scented bedding uses chemicals that a rabbit or guinea pig will breathe in every day. Over time this can harm their sensitive respiratory system, the company said. The floral bedding also checks the boxes for maximum efficiency and safety, it said.
Bedding plays a significant role in the overall health of a rabbit’s environment. Small Pet Select’s basic white paper bedding is a staple for many rabbit owners. It brown paper bedding is a staple for those who want something fully compostable.
“Pet parents want unique products to try with their pets,” Billy Gordon, owner of Small Pet Select, said. “A lot of care is put into creating a habitat and it’s nice to provide variety while keeping everything safe and natural.”
Small Pet Select started out in 2012 by supplying the small pet world with premium hand-packaged hay. It has since expanded to sell bedding, food, treats, toys, chews, and habitat accessories.
