How to Use

Usage Instructions

• Place or Hang in the Habitat: Set the carrot somewhere accessible in the cage, or hang it for your pet to paw and bat.
• Let Them Tear It Apart: Don't worry if your pet pulls strands loose or tears into the carrot, since that's expected chewing.
• Repurpose as a Foraging Chew: Once loose strands are gone, tuck treats or greens into the remaining carrot for your pet to find.

Additional Information

Precautions

• Watch for Loose Strands: Some pets pull long strands out and scatter them, so expect a bit of mess during chew time.
• Consider Pet Size: This hay can be fairly large, similar in size to a pear, so it may suit bigger pets better.
• Supervise the First Few Uses: Keep an eye on your pet early on to see how they interact with this chew.

Storage Information

• Store in a Dry Spot: Keep this hay somewhere cool and dry so it doesn't pick up moisture or start to mold.
• Replace Once It's Gone: Since pets chew through this hay at different rates, plan to replace it once it's mostly worn down.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What is this chew made of?

Ans: It's hand-woven from 100% pure Timothy hay, completely edible and free of chemicals, wires, or thread. The carrot shape adds a fun visual element on top of the fiber and chewing benefits your pet gets from the hay itself each day.

Q2: How do I use this chew?

Ans: You can place it somewhere accessible in your pet's habitat or hang it from the cage bars for pawing and batting. Once your pet chews through some of the strands, you can tuck treats or greens into what's left for a foraging challenge.

Q3: What animals is this hay chew good for?

Ans: This works for rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas, gerbils, hamsters, rats, and mice. Keep in mind it's fairly large, roughly the size of a pear, so it may work better for bigger pets than very small exotics like young hamsters or gerbils.

Q4: How long will this hay chew last?

Ans: That depends entirely on your pet's chewing habits. Some pets tear through the loose strands within days, while the denser body of the carrot can take weeks longer to fully chew through. Heavier chewers will naturally go through it faster than gentle ones.

Q5: Will my pet actually enjoy this hay chew?

Ans: It really depends on the pet. Many rabbits and guinea pigs tear into it enthusiastically right away, while some pets, especially picky ones, may only nibble a bit before losing interest. If your pet isn't interested at first, try again in a day or two.

Q6: Is this hay chew messy?

Ans: It can be. Some pets pull long strands of hay loose and scatter them around the habitat while chewing, so expect a bit of cleanup during and after play. That's normal, though, and just part of how this hay is meant to be used.

Q7: Can I use this chew to hide food?

Ans: Yes, once your pet has chewed away some of the loose outer strands, you can tuck small treats or greens into the remaining carrot for a fun foraging challenge. This adds a second life to the chew after the initial chewing wears down.
