>>...and this is definately a recommended purchase if you can find one used or on ebay.
>>Mine is a fellowes 4200sc (Strip cut.) not cross cut, and it shreds up junk mail, magazines, newspapers, phone books, grocery bags, cardboard boxes, old socks, etc; and makes the best rat bedding ever.

>>The rats seem to love it. I'm still trying it out, but so far it looks promising.
>>Anybody else use a shredder to make bedding?

I think it works for some things. I have issues with it sticking to newborns and being generally not absorbant and stinky. But as nesting material on top of a good bedding I use it.
