I saw this product suggested in another thread but didn't want to hijack the thread, so figured it would be best to start a new one.
I was really interested in getting one of these for my girls BUT when I read the ingredients I found out that it contains pine shavings
Ingredients:
Pine Wood Shavings, Cassava Starch, Glycerin, Alfalfa, Sodium Alginate, Honey, Propionic Acid (Preservative), Peanut Butter Flavoring, Potassium Sorbate (Preservative), Color Added (FD&C Red #40, FD&C Blue #1, FD&C Yellow #5).
Taken from: http://www.petguys.com/-026851022090.html
Could someone explain why this would be ok to give rats (since I see a lot of people on here have them) and pine shavings are not? Don't they all have the same componants or is this a "how it is made" thing where the toxic compounds are broken down in the processing of the log?
I'm just confused...
