Review: Super high quality straw for animal bedding - Yes this straw is more expensive than the stuff you can buy from a garden center but I am very pleased to say that this is really high quality, very clean, dry, straw that is perfect for animal bedding. Also it is packed into the bag much tighter than any standard bale of straw you would get for gardening so you get more straw than you would for the same volume* (*for example if you just dropped some straw into a box and then compared that to a box that was stuffed with compressed straw, sure the container is the same volume but the one that was stuffed with compressed straw contains more straw than the one that wasn't compressed). The description says this bag contains 25 pounds of straw and I did not stop to weigh it before I opened the bag but it felt like 25 pounds to me. Also, it is very clean, and dry, without any dirt like you might find in the normal garden center straw so none of that weight is dirt or excessive moisture content. As for the use, I used it for bedding inside of outdoor animal house and I could not be more pleased and I would buy this again. As for the price, it is currently $34.30, so if you add an inexpensive book or other token item that is 70 cents or more you can get free shipping from desertcart. For me, not having to get straw all over the inside of the trunk of my car (normal unboxed or unbagged straw goes everywhere) and having it delivered right to my door, and in a bag that I was able to reseal (by just rolling up the open end like a bag of potato chips and putting some bag clips on the end) was a definite plus. To avoid any confusion, the straw is sealed in a bag and that bag was shipped inside a cardboard box provided by desertcart; I just wanted to make that clear so there is no worry of the bag getting torn during shipping since it is inside a shipping box. Having the straw packed in a plastic bag may not sound like a big deal, but it kept it perfectly clean and dry, whereas the stuff in a at the garden center bale can absorb moisture. Also it is nice not having to buy a box of heavy duty garbage bags to store any left over straw (I only ended up using about 1/3 of the 25 pound bag to cover the ground surrounding the shelter and the ground under the shelter, and a second floor inside the shelter, so it was nice to be able to reseal the bag and keep the rest for whenever). In addition there is very faint and pleasant smell to this straw, unlike garden center straw which can sometimes have a strong or musty smell. I have not posted them yet (and plan to later), but I did take some pictures that show some of this chopped straw next to some standard straw and you really can notice a difference. The chopped straw is shorter and flatter. So I plan to post the pictures later but in the mean time I wanted to let anyone know, that is interested in getting straw as bedding for their pets or small animals that, yes it is more expensive than garden center straw, but in my opinion this is one of those products where you actually get what you pay for. Of course it is too expensive to fill up a barn with but if you need high quality, clean, and dry straw for animal bedding, this is very nice straw.
Review: Lots and LOTS of straw at a price you can't beat. - I do cat rescue and with something like 25-plus cat houses to clean and refill with fresh straw each fall I use a lot of this stuff. I've tried numerous other brands. Some were very good and some were pretty bad too. But of all of those I tried no one has come close to the amount you get for this price and quality is excellent as well. It comes in a large plastic bag and the straw is very compressed. It looks like it will fill about five or six cat houses (shelters made from 20-gallon plastic storage totes) but once I started pulling some out for two new ones I hardly made a dent in the bag at all! Amazing. There is lots of straw in a 25 pound bag. I bet if I dumped it out there'd be enough to turn my garage into one huge cat shelter and I'd be comfy in it too...and I'd probably still have some left over. I'm telling you it's like a bottomless bag of straw. And, unlike the longer strands of UN-chopped straw, the chopped straws are actually heated to kill off any seeds/etc. that could germinate and allow plant growth during warmer months (or even warmer days in winter). And straw NEVER retains moisture. If it does, it's hay, NOT straw. NEVER USE HAY for any animal bedding that is outdoors or not changed daily. If it's wet and the animal is wet, they can and most likely will get pneumonia and die before you realize they're ill. Seriously though, if you're into cat rescue or need straw (not hay--THAT holds moisture) bedding for animals look no further. You ain't gonna beat this quality and amount any place...at least, not on the same planet I'm sitting on right now. And remember it's also available UNCHOPPED. That type is NOT heat-treated though. Have a great day! Ad keep up the good cat-care work...god knows they need all the help they can get.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ For the ferals
*by V***O on November 9, 2025*

Great for ferals and warm in winter! One can put that so it does not keep humidity contrary to cloths. I put a bit of powder (silicat) in case of insects, but the straw is very clean, really. A lot of it and prompt delivery.
