it is a fine bedding but it is kind of messy. if you can go to your local pet stor and look for yesterdays news recycled newspaper litter and it works realy good and you only have to change it like once a month.

Note that some people feel cedar is not a good bedding for small animals due to concerns over the fumes. There doesn't seem to be a great deal of hard evidence one way or the other, but the aromatic compounds that give cedar its smell do seem to at least have the potential to cause liver damage.

I would like to use cedar shavings inside of my home to repel small rodents. Will the cedar shavings have an adverse effect on my grown cat?

Cedar shavings are safe for your grown cat. A cat can actually eat a cedar chip without adverse reaction, however they hate the smell so much that, as a general rule, they wont go near them. Cedar chips are often used outside to deter feral cats from specific areas, without harming them. They are also great for use in cat litter. The scent of cedar greatly reduces the smell of urine, which is a huge relief for many. The cedar wood is not toxic to your cat, but cedar oil is. Essential oils of any kind are toxic to cats and should be avoided at all cost. Good luck with your way with the rodents. Yoy should be the victor in no time by using cedar chips.
