Are the shavings kiln-dried? If so, they're safe... but if they're not, then they're toxic. The same goes for pine in lumber or pellet form - it HAS to be kiln-dried to be safe. NOT all pine lumber is kiln-dried.
The health problems caused by the phenols in non-kiln-dried pine are not necessarily ones you'd see after 5-6 months - in addition to potentially causing respiratory issues, the phenols cause liver damage which affects their ability to process certain medications, including the most popular injectable anesthesias used for rabbits and it's been linked to deaths during routine spay operations.
