All-Natural Willow Chew Cube for Small Pets
Product Description
Small pets thrive when they have something to gnaw, toss, and pull apart, and the Oxbow Enriched Life Willow Play Cube delivers exactly that. Built from untreated willow sticks woven into a compact cube, it lets rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, and other small pets wear down their teeth naturally while satisfying an instinct to chew, explore, and play throughout the day.
Benefits
- Natural Dental Wear: Gnawing on the willow surface helps wear down continuously growing teeth in a safe, gradual way.
- Treat Hiding Spot: The open cube shape lets you tuck small treats or hay inside for a hunt-and-find activity.
- Toss and Tumble Fun: Lightweight willow construction makes the cube easy for pets to push, roll, and knock around.
- All-Natural Ingredients: Made entirely from untreated willow, so there's nothing artificial for your pet to chew or swallow.
- Versatile Habitat Addition: Works well in cages, playpens, or free-roam spaces as a standalone toy or combined with others.
Material
Willow.
How to Use
Directions for Use

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Can my small pet safely chew and eat the Willow Play Cube?
Ans: Yes, the cube is built entirely from untreated willow, so pieces your pet gnaws off and swallows are made purely from natural wood with nothing artificial added. Willow chews are commonly offered to rabbits, guinea pigs, and rodents specifically because gnawing wood safely wears down their continuously growing teeth.
Q2: Which small pets is the Willow Play Cube designed for?
Ans: Oxbow designed this cube for rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, mice, hamsters, gerbils, and chinchillas, covering nearly every common small-pet species. Its compact size and open lattice shape work whether your pet likes to gnaw through wood, toss the cube across their space, or squeeze inside for a moment of exploration.
Q3: How big is the Willow Play Cube?
Ans: The cube measures approximately 4.5 inches long, 4.5 inches wide, and 7 inches high, giving it enough presence to stand out in a habitat without overwhelming a smaller cage. That size also makes it sturdy enough to survive being tossed, rolled, and gnawed on repeatedly by an enthusiastic chewer.
Q4: Can I hide treats inside the Willow Play Cube?
Ans: Yes, the cube's open, lattice-style construction leaves natural gaps you can tuck small treats, hay, or leafy greens into. This turns simple feeding time into a short foraging challenge, since your pet has to nose around, chew through, or pull pieces apart to reach whatever you've hidden inside.
Q5: Does the Willow Play Cube come in more than one size or pack?
Ans: This cube is available as a single piece or in a 3-pack, so you can restock easily once your pet chews through the current one. Buying multiples also lets you rotate cubes in and out of the habitat, keeping a fresh chew always on hand for pets that go through them quickly.
