Why Pet Owners Are Switching to Aspen Bedding and Litter?

Why Pet Owners Are Switching to Aspen Bedding and Litter?

The Right Bedding Matters

Your small pet deserves a clean, comfortable, and safe environment. Whether you have a rabbit, guinea pig, hamster, mouse, rat, chinchilla, or even a reptile, choosing the right bedding and litter is crucial for their health and happiness.

Unfortunately, many bedding options on the market are low-quality byproducts of the timber industry, often filled with dust, resin, and even unwanted materials like plastic or metal. These cheap alternatives may seem like a good deal, but they can lead to respiratory problems, bacterial growth, and poor hygiene—putting your pet’s well-being at risk.

At Millamore, we believe small pets deserve better. That’s why we craft premium aspen bedding and litter, designed specifically for small animals—not as an afterthought, but with their health, comfort, and safety in mind.

Why Aspen Bedding and Litter is the Superior Choice?

Natural and Safe for Small Pets

Unlike pine or spruce, which contain high levels of aromatic resins and phenols that can cause respiratory and liver issues in small animals, aspen bedding and litter is made from a low-resin, hypoallergenic hardwood. This makes aspen the safest wood bedding choice for your furry friend.

At Millamore, we go even further:

✔ 100% natural aspen wood – No added chemicals or artificial additives
✔ Dust-free – Eliminates respiratory risks for both pets and owners
✔ Hypoallergenic – Free from harmful aromatic oils, making it safe for all small animals

Superior Hygiene: Heat-Treated for Safety

Bedding can be a breeding ground for bacteria, mold, and other harmful microorganisms if not properly processed. That’s why Millamore aspen bedding and litter undergoes a high-temperature heat treatment at over 100°C.

Why heat-treated bedding is important:
✔ Kills bacteria, mold, and fungi that can cause infections
✔ Removes excess moisture, ensuring a drier and healthier habitat
✔ Eliminates dust, reducing allergens that can irritate your pet’s lungs

By choosing heat-treated aspen bedding, you’re ensuring a clean, hygienic environment for your small pet—without the risk of contaminants found in lower-quality alternatives.

High Absorbency and Odor Control

One of the biggest concerns for small pet owners is odor control. Millamore’s aspen bedding absorbs 200% of its weight in liquid, helping to:

✔ Keep cages dry longer, reducing the need for frequent cleanings
✔ Minimize bacterial growth, preventing unwanted odors
✔ Bind ammonia effectively—Millamore bedding has 3x higher ammonia-binding capacity than other wooden beddings

This means a fresher, healthier home for both you and your pet.

Tested to the Highest Standards: As Safe as Pet Food!

Most people don’t realize this, but there are no official bedding safety standards. That means many brands get away with selling unsafe, contaminated, or low-quality products.

At Millamore, we hold ourselves to the strictest standards by testing our bedding against pet food safety requirements.

✅ For 20 years, we have never failed a single test.
✅ Every batch is tested for harmful chemicals, bacteria, and contaminants.
✅ Our bedding is as safe as the food you give your pet.

This means peace of mind—knowing your small pet is sleeping, playing, and burrowing in a safe and healthy environment.

Sustainability Matters: Eco-Friendly Bedding

Many bedding brands use timber industry leftovers, which can include dust, resin, and even scraps of plastic or metal.

Millamore does things differently:

🌱 Made from FSC-certified aspen – Sourced responsibly from sustainable forests
🌱 100% biodegradable and compostable – No harmful waste, good for the planet
🌱 Produced with renewable energy – Supporting a greener future

When you choose Millamore aspen bedding and litter, you’re not just protecting your pet—you’re making an eco-conscious choice for the environment.
