Arm & Hammer Super Absorbent Cage Liners for Small Animals, 7 Count

About a month ago i rescued a bunny. it took my a while to figure out the whole litter bin situation and what worked best for him. Until i figured it out, these things made cleaning up his cage in the morning much much easier. I have a cage that has a “pee tray” so i used the liners over top of the tray to catch his pee during the night. In the morning it was easy to clean, take the liner out, put it in a garbage bag, and replace it. It was much easier and much better than dealing with his pee all over his food bin, thats for sure.

Absorbent and locks in odor! Perfect fit for my cage!

I like these anyone that has guinea pigs knows how messy they can be especially when it comes time to clean their cages. I place this under their bedding and when its time to clean i roll it and toss it in the trash easy peazy.

I’ve owned guinea pigs for close to 9 years now, and I’m not sure why I never used these things. I’m almost mad I didn’t use them earlier honestly! Absolute game changers. They’re really effective at keeping down the urine smell for longer — and if you own guinea pigs, you *know* that smell can get bad after awhile.

For best results, I highly recommend lining the entire area of the cage with these liners, then pairing with some sort of bedding, preferably aspen bedding because it’s best in terms of odor neutralizing and not being too dusty for guinea pigs’ lungs. If you have a guinea pig who nibbles at everything, the bedding will help keep the liners out of sight. It wouldn’t be good for them to chew on it, which is something to consider before buying.

I’ve also discovered that these help ease the cleanup process, too! Instead of having to scoop up every last bit of bedding on cleaning days, I just have to scoop a little off the top, then roll up the liners and use them almost like diapers! haha

As far as absorbency goes, these were fantastic. I used them in a cage with two guinea pigs for about 3 weeks, just to test out if they’d hold up, and while the smell did start to become a little noticeable (fair enough for 3 weeks honestly), none of the urine seeped through the bottom. The canvas floor of the cage was completely dry. Again: game changer.

If you’re debating on using these to keep the smell down and help with cleanup overall, I couldn’t recommend them more. Not to mention, they’re very cheap for how many you can get in a whole pack!

These work amazing for a quick clean out job of a cage, but they aren’t large pads, and there’s not that many in a box. For a regular Midwest habitat which is the minimum size cage for a guinea pig, I have to use 4 pads to cover the cage. I go through 2 boxes within a month, so not sure I’ll continue using this brand, but I do like that all I have to do is bundle up all the dirty shavings in the liners and put them in the trash. It cut my cleaning time in half. So there’s definitely pros and cons.

Super absorbed great size and keeps the smell down

I tried these pads under the shavings in the cage. My chinchillas shredded them. They work great for the cages that have a grate between the animal and the shavings. The best use for these is the travel cages. I fold the pads inside fleece so the animals are comfortable but they have an absorbent surface. This is much easier than shavings when traveling or trips to the vet.
