yes! most definatly! Shredded paper is a very commonly used for pet bedding including, rabbits, hamsers, mice, kittens, ginuea pigs, and other rodent creatures. alternatively you can use hay, but either is fine and safe for your pet. *Agreed, just make sure that it is NOT newspaper as the ink can be toxic to these creatures. Any plain or recycled paper is fine.

What bedding can your hamster have?
Hamsters can have only wood shaving bedding. This is because with paper bedding, they will eat it, store it in their cheeks and get an infection.

Aspen bedding is definitely safe for the hamster to use.
