Care Fresh In Oz?

Postby Jadex25 » Sun May 06, 2007 11:42 pm

Hey Guys Iv herd a few people on here saying that care fresh isnt avalible in oz. Well guess what...I think i found some.I was a Pet store and i saw some.They were only in small bags and they were green and pink 1s. There was another big bag of white care fresh but it sad on it that it was for store use and not for public sale? Anyone else here from Australia seen any?

Dr Harry's Light and Easy Cat Litter and Coles Recycled Paper Cat Litter are virtually identical to Carefresh.

Breeder's Choice is also a recycled paper product, but it's pelleted, rather than flaked.

I use the Dr Harry's or the Coles brand because I prefer the flaked, but the Breeder's Choice would be fine if you can't get the other two.

Breeders choice is fine - I admit it's pelleted but it makes it easier to find the little ones and it also soaks ups the smells just as well.

Just as a sidenote on the flaked varieties. Wallflower Girl was tracking down the manufacturer as a favour so Brock can order it in for the Hydro shop and found out this.

Dr. Harry's Light & Easy, the Coles brand and the Light & Easy (without Dr. Harry branding) are all made by the same manufacturer. Exactly the same, except for the bag it comes in. So if your local supermarket or pet shop has more than just one of the varieties, go for whichever's cheaper.

Also, most places tend to have the 15litre bags as standard. But the webpage lists that it supplies four different sizes, up to 35litre. So if you keep a lot of herps, or a variety of animals that use it, see if you can get your friendly local store to order in the larger packets and buy in bulk.

Someone who'd watched the truly excellent series Press Gang would get the joke of my nick. Okay, they'd have to have watched it way too much and have a memory for obscure lines, but still... :lol:

That person isn't me; certainly not someone who's up on television happenings. :edward:

I'm still keeping an eye on that Dr. Harry... Just in case...
