[QUOTE="Sabeth, post: 28308, member: 545"] You're welcome, I really hope everything goes well with your T. You can leave him in the ICU for up to 2 days before changing the towels. By stint I mean each 2-day round in the ICU, with the changings in between. So by the time you've replaced the toweling the third time, hopefully there will have been some improvement. That means roughly 6 days. With luck things will take a turn for the better, although unfortunately there's no guarantee. The best substrate I can recommend is dry shredded coconut fiber. It goes by the name EcoEarth in some stores. If possible, try to get it already processed and bagged so you don't have the hassle of wetting a hard brick and drying it in the sun. You can also use peat moss; a pet store should carry this. Temporarily, if sub isn't immediately available, you could use dry paper toweling on the bottom of the cage until you are able to get the sub. But from the sound of things, you have a few days.
