Bedding Cotton

i have two dwarf hamsters and if i don't use that bedding they will get sick. my apartment is very drafty no matter what is done, and i don't want them too cold.
i only use 5 pinches of fluff for them

This fluffy bedding is not recommended because it can wrap around your Dwarf Hamster's foot and cut off the circulation. It could also wrap around its neck and suffocate it. This is really more of a concern for baby hamsters.

I recommend you use the aspen wood shavings or CareFRESH, and just put some old rags or blankets in the cage for them to warm up in.

I've read that the more you wash them the softer they get. Should I put them through the washing machine a few times?

No. That would be wasteful. They mean that as you use them and over time, they continue to soften. There is no need to wash repeatedly between uses.

I am planning to upgrade the bedding in my entire house and decided to go for the best this time. Is Egyptian cotton the best and softest of all? I am going for separate sheets, covers, comfortors etc., as opposed to "bed-in-a-bag with pretty designs" which I had previously, so that I can select higher threadcounts...what threadcounts are considered the best in Egyptian cotton?

Lastly what are some good places to get these from?

(Only soft bedding enthusiasts answer!)

Anything over 350 or 400 thread count is great but the higher you can go the better. Be aware that they will come out of the dryer looking like they need to be ironed and I do iron my pillow cases and the top of the top sheet that shows. These days sheets of this level can be purchased in a lot of places but you can get your best deals at Linens N Things and Bed Bath and Beyond especially with their ongoing 20% off coupons. The bed in a bag sheets are usually only 250 so you are right to not want to use them. If I like the comforters and shams in them, I give the sheets to Goodwill. My highest thread count right now is 1000 and it is perfect. Be sure to wash these sheets on a cold water setting and dry them on a delicate setting. They can shrink if you don't

Today I just tried out that fluffy cotton bedding stuff with my hamster. When I first put it in I saw her bite some off and possibly swallowed a bit. She is still very active and alive. . . but will this cause any damage in the future? (Right after I read the notes on hamsters dying from swallowing this stuff, I removed it. . . which was about 9 hours after I'd put it in the cage)

Thanks in advance!

im not too sure because i never used cotton bedding.. the hamster might have put it in it's pouch
but in the future use aspen its the best..this bedding contains NO artificial oil.
the pine bedding contains oil and it may be bad for your hamster's health and will make it's coat oily

I've noticed some places like Pottery Barn, but I like soft sheets so I was hoping for a higher thread count like 400 and higher. I live in Nevada but also go to Cali and Oregon often...
P.S. I've just started going Green this year, and little by little am trying to make a difference, I know organic cotton is much genetler on the earth than growing conventional cotton!
