coconut matting

[cheekyfilly]

Hi all I have been trying to get coconut matting for my girls cage. But every time I find it it seems to have a latex coating on it. Presumably this is not healthy for my babies so can anyone suggest where I might get it? I found a fab website that sells the hemp flooring on the roll but its in Denmark and I cant get my tablet to translate to English to find out if they would send it to the UK...

Found some pet safe options:

www.zooplus.co.uk/shop/small_pets/hay_and_bedding/other_bedding_small_pets/348287

You might need to check if this has a non safe backing:

Is this one you originally found not big enough?

I've always gotten mine just at a garden center. They sell it off big rolls, by the foot. The one thing to watch out for is if it has been sprayed with any kind of pesticide. Smell it, it should just smell like musty coconut fibers, if you get any kind of chemical or petroleum smell, stay away from it. It always has a kind of waxy feel to it, that's just the way the fibers feel.

I think I am going to go with the original one. Ideally I could do with being wider but I can order extra to make it up. The other one on amazon has latex and I don't trust that. Thank you ?
