We've bought a shredder now, can I use the paper for my rabbit?

They sell shredders in Poundland if you want one cheap and quick. Also put the shreds in the bid on 2 separate weeks instead of all at once.

My dad sets fire to them in the garden. You could get a small metal bin and do that. They can't be pieced together after a fire!

yes yes yes

Shredded paper is not good for most small animals as it cuts their little paw pads.

Rabbit MAY be OK if he's a big toughie, but it might be best to stay away from using shredded paper for any animal

There is no need to shred anything - all the would-be identity thieves are rummaging round outside the back door of your local bank !!!
