        I meant to get the Yesterdays News that was unscented, but I accidentally got the Fresh Scent bag and it is with the softer texture.  Is it okay to use?

          I would think the perfume would irritate their noses. Even if it didn’t, they might be put off by the smell. Can you exchange it?

            Okay I think I will just exchange it. I definately don’t want it to irritate him in anyway!

              Yup, agreed with LBJ. Yesterday’s News does also market something specifically for small animals, but make sure you get the one for cats (non-clumping and unscented)…they’re essentially the same thing but the small animal one is more expensive.

                Purina no longer makes Yesterday’s News for rabbits, ferrets, etc. They only make the version for cats. They say that the Softer Texture Unscented is most like the versions they used to make for small animals.

                    I’m going to try and switch Usagi’s litter to Yesterdays News. Do you have to do it gradually so it doesn’t irritate them, or can you just completely switch them over in a day?

                      I think it depends on the rabbit and the type of litter he/she is used to. With Scat changing from cedar shavings (previous owner) to wood pelets, i have to mix in some carefresh. even after 3 weeks i have to put a thin layer of carefresh over top or he wont use the litter box, but i am slowly phasing it out.

                        Pablo switched over in one day. I guess you could try it. If it doesn’t work. try again

                          We are just switching from one type of paper litter to Yesterdays News so not really a big change. I think I will just do it in a day and if he doesn’t respond well I will try doing it gradually.

                            I got the Yesterdays News that was unscented. Thanks for all your help!

                              Im glad you were able to exchange for the unscented. That happened to me once too and I since I had already opened it I just decided to mix it with regular YN and even though that the scent even more mild my bunnies started peeing just right outside of the box part of the time. They obviously did not like it.
