Wood Shaving Bedding

Shop wood bedding for small pets — a popular, absorbent, and natural option for rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils, and more. Wood shavings provide good moisture control and odour protection, but always choose dust-extracted and kiln-dried varieties to protect your pet's sensitive respiratory system. Aspen is the only safe wood shavings for hamsters and many guinea pigs, while cedar and unprocessed pine contain harmful phenols that can cause respiratory and liver issues.

For species-specific advice, read what bedding should my guinea pig have to compare wood shavings, fleece, and paper options, how to choose the best rabbit bedding for depth and absorbency tips, and the best hamster bedding for your furry friend for burrow-friendly substrates.

Browse by material to find the right fit: shop hay & straw for outdoor insulation and nesting, paper bedding for soft, dust-free comfort ideal for burrow-builders, and this wood bedding range for absorbent shavings and chips. The right wood bedding keeps your pet dry, comfortable, and healthy year-round.
