I've learned that pine shavings are not the best litter for any pet rabbit. The strong odor is hard on them and can cause them breathing problems. I switched all my bunnies to care fresh litter, and this has worked well for whatever breed of bunny I've had, including my netherland dwarf rabbit. Hope this has been helpful. Pat

Will pine shavings kill a ferret?
No, not recommended. You may see pet stores using cedar or pine shavings as bedding for ferrets. Cedar shavings harbor bacteria and can cause allergies and respiratory problems in ferrets, also pine and other woods produce dust. Wood shavings are completely unnecessary for ferrets, you can use clean towels or old T-shirt for sleeping. Cedar shavings, white and yellow pines, release volatile hydrocarbons which can affect animals. Plicatic acid, a volatile hydrocarbon, results in asthma in humans and rabbits. Other hydrocarbons result in changes in the liver, which may impair its ability to detoxify certain drugs, including various anesthetic agents. Scientists over the years have alluded to possible carcinogenicity in cedar shavings. Absolutely not. Wood shavings are usually made of pine, which is a very dusty wood. If small animals like ferrets, rabbits, etc. come into excessive contact with very dusty materials (such as wood shavings and cat-grade clay litter) this can get into their lungs and dry them up. And that can end up very badly if not caught in time. Short answer: no wood shavings.
