EN PLUS A1 certified pellet litter
Why did we choose EN PLUS A1 certified pellet litter for rabbits?
At NaturalBite, we care for animal well-being with natural and safe products. Choosing the right litter is a crucial aspect of your rabbit's health, and one that's often overlooked. That's why we've developed an EN PLUS A1 certified pellet litter made from beech and fir wood, free from harmful resins. In this article, we'll explain the reasons behind this choice and the benefits it offers your little friend.
The importance of good litter for rabbits
Anyone who owns a rabbit knows how essential quality litter is. The wrong product can cause respiratory problems, dermatitis, or even poisoning. Rabbits are very delicate animals and have sensitive respiratory systems. Furthermore, they tend to ingest whatever they find in their cage, so the litter must be free of toxic substances.
Many pellets on the market are unsuitable for rabbits because they contain resins, chemical additives, or treated shavings, which can release harmful substances. For this reason, we have chosen a natural, safe, and certified litter.
Why did we choose EN PLUS A1 certified pellets?
The EN PLUS A1 certification guarantees that the pellets are made from pure wood, without chemical additives, glues, or toxic substances. This certification is recognized throughout Europe and requires strict product quality controls.
Here are the main advantages of the EN PLUS A1 certification for your rabbit's litter:
✅ 100% natural: no glue, dyes or toxic substances.
✅ Low humidity: Effectively absorbs urine and reduces the growth of bacteria.
✅ Low dust: prevents respiratory problems in rabbits.
✅ High absorbency: eliminates bad odors and keeps the litter box dry for longer.
Many pellets for stoves or other animals may contain resins and chemical additives. At NaturalBite, we want to guarantee only the best for your pets, which is why we've chosen a certification that ensures the highest quality.
Why did we choose a resin-free blend of beech and fir?
Rabbits are very sensitive animals, and the type of wood used in their litter can make a difference to their health. We've chosen a resin-free blend of beech and fir to ensure a safe and effective product.
The problem of resins in common pellets
Some pellets, especially those made from untreated pine and other conifers, contain high levels of resins and essential oils. These substances can be dangerous for rabbits for two main reasons:
1. Respiratory problems: Resins release volatile compounds that can irritate rabbits' respiratory tract, leading to difficulty breathing and lung inflammation.
2. Toxicity if ingested: Rabbits tend to chew on their litter, and ingesting resins can cause digestive, liver, and kidney problems.
For these reasons, many veterinarians advise against the use of resinous wood pellets for rabbits.
The benefits of resin-free beech and fir
Our litter is made from a blend of resin-free beech and fir, two woods ideal for rabbits.
✅ Beech is a hard, resin-free wood, highly absorbent, and has a neutral odor. It's safe for rabbits and helps keep the litter box clean longer.
✅ Resin-free fir was chosen for its lightness and odor-neutralizing properties. Unlike pine and other conifers, our fir is treated to eliminate any residual resin, making it safe for rabbits.
This combination allows you to obtain a highly absorbent, dust-free litter that is 100% safe for your rabbit's health.
The advantages of pellet litter over other options
Many rabbit owners use various types of litter, but not all are suitable. Let's compare our EN PLUS A1 certified pellets with other alternatives:
1️⃣ Pellets for stoves (❌ NOT recommended)
Many people use pellets intended for stoves because they are cheap and readily available. However, these pellets are not tested for animal feed and often contain:
• Resins
• Chemical adhesives
• Artificial additives
These items can be toxic to rabbits, making them an unsafe choice.
2️⃣ Sawdust or wood shavings (⚠️ Partially recommended)
Some use sawdust or wood shavings, but these options can:
• Be dusty, causing respiratory problems.
• Not being absorbent enough, making the litter damp and unpleasant.
• Be difficult to clean, encouraging the proliferation of bacteria.
3️⃣ EN PLUS A1 certified beech and fir pellet litter without resins (✅ BEST OPTION)
✅ Highly absorbent
✅ Dust-free
✅ Without resins or toxic substances
✅ Easy to dispose of, 100% biodegradable
✅ Tested and certified for animal use
Our pellet litter is therefore the best alternative to guarantee hygiene and safety for your rabbit.
