Newspaper is also OK for composting, and is easier to shred since you
just do it after reading (presumably that doesn't get it wet).

True if I shred it right after reading, but probably not if it has been
under the bird cage.

So it sounds like either newspaper or "the paper made essentially from wood
pulp produced by a modified sulfate pulping process" will work. I don't know
which will neccessarily work better for either the cage or the pile, but
that gives me two good options.

I wonder if I should start reading a newspaper?
