Carno Paper Pulp Bedding — 400g Soft Nesting Material

The nest, not the floor.

Carno Paper Pulp is a soft log-pulp bedding made for the part of the enclosure your hamster actually sleeps in. Wide, papery flakes in muted two-tone colours drape and layer into a warm nest — and they photograph beautifully against natural cork and wood if you're building a themed setup.

Why owners pick it

• Made for sensitive furbabies. Low-sensitivity, near-dustless log pulp for hamsters that react to shavings or dustier paper products.
• Soft and warm. Flake structure traps air, so the nest holds warmth on cold nights and in air-conditioned rooms.
• Fluffy and breathable. Doesn't compact into a dense mat the way tissue does — air still moves through the nest.
• Naturally absorbent. Handles moisture and helps keep the sleeping chamber from turning damp.
• Two-tone colourway. Soft neutral shades that sit well in naturalistic and pastel enclosure themes.

How to use it Carno Paper Pulp works best as a nesting material and topper rather than as your entire substrate — a 400g bag is generous for nests but won't fill a large enclosure to burrowing depth. Layer it over a deep paper or aspen base, or tuck a handful into a hideout and let your hamster shred and arrange it. Hamsters that build their own nests get real enrichment out of the process, so offer it loose rather than pre-shaped.

Who it's for Syrian and dwarf hamsters, gerbils, mice and other small pets — particularly good for owners moving away from wood shavings.

Pairs well with Flat Cork Bark (as a nest roof), Natural Wooden Branches, and a deep paper base layer.
