Can anyone answer a replacement for hay?

Apparently, I have gotten a bunny recently! It is adorable! as much as their adorable they're a big responsibility for sure! need lots of food, attention, and make sure they don't bite wires if they're free to roam. But recently while setting their cage I had a very horrible allergic reaction to the hay, Timothy hay, I got from the pet store. I got sent to the hospital during the night. Puffy eyes, runny nose, and couldn't breathe too well. I never knew I was allergic to hay. So yay Hay's fever!? But yes I need help to finding newer hay to add to his cage, my so-called "Guardians" are deciding if its the hay or the bunny that made me allergic but believe me. I had that bunny for 5 hours with me alone hiding behind me and all before I started setting up his little new home. Once I opened that bag. That's when it all started. So please help find out what type of hay do I need now? Is there some sort of replacement for the people who are so allergic to it for some weird reason? I handled hay before I am rather very confused with what is going on with this issue! Thanks!

My nephew takes recycled paper out of his shredder and uses that. Not newspapers, though with their nasty dyes, but regular paper and envelopes.

I use lavender wood shavings , it’s cheaper and it doesn’t harm them and it keeps bad smells away , and it doesn’t cause infections or illnesses
Go to local pet store they should have the specific type bedding for rabbits or can help you find a different type

@english Compared to text, I am less confident to ask in calls; as well as talk as I normally would. I am better off going down there somehow. But at the very moment, I am just being told either find better bedding or that bunny goes.
