Yes I found out the hard way = Hay will attract Mice.. Now if you go to Walmart & buy Pine Shavings = that does great for my dogs.. It should be ok for your kitty as well.. It will keep out the bugs & all mice.. The bag (large) of Pine Shavings is around $6.00.. It will be in the dog section.. Look on the top shelves.. The bags are bigg..

Thanks - I know just what you mean. I was going to use pine for his winter house, but decided he would need something warmer. Duh - where's my head today??? - I should have thought of that right away!

Yes I used Hay one year && it got to where the dogs would not go into their houses.. Well a friend said have you checked for mice & I said no.. Well come to find out that is what happened mice & other small bugs & ect was all into the hay.. Well I dump & cleaned the dog houses & put in Pine Shavings.. From there on out I am devoted to Pine Shavings.. No Dust - No Bugs && No Mice.. Also it keeps the smell fresh..

Cedar might be OK, too; it smells nice and repels bugs.

Yes Cedar Shavings is good too.. Really I like to mix the two for the dog houses..
