A willow wood bridge for the enclosure. To walk over, hide under and gnaw on. Available in five sizes. Read more.
A willow wood bridge instantly brings something natural to the enclosure. You can use this Esve willow bridge in different ways. Lay it on the floor as a walkway, use it as a step up to a raised area or lean it against a wall. That creates a spot to walk over and hide under.
Hiding is important for prey animals such as guinea pigs, rabbits, hamsters and mice. They feel safer when they can crawl underneath something. A willow bridge forms an extra hiding corner next to the hideout. Rats and degus, on the other hand, like to climb on the bridge and look at the enclosure from a higher point.
Willow is a soft wood that rodents and rabbits like to gnaw on. That is fine: the bridge may be chewed. The teeth of these animals keep growing for life, and gnawing on wood keeps them busy. Replace the bridge when it has been gnawed too far or sharp bits appear.
The willow bridge comes in five sizes. Choose a smaller size for mice, dwarf hamsters and gerbils, and a larger one for rats, guinea pigs and rabbits. Measure how much space there is in the enclosure first.
Look at the size of your pet and the space in the enclosure. The smaller sizes suit mice, dwarf hamsters and gerbils. For rats, guinea pigs and rabbits choose one of the larger sizes, so they can easily walk over or crawl under it.
Yes. Willow wood is meant to be gnawed. Do check the bridge regularly and replace it when it has been chewed too far.
Brush or knock off loose bedding and dirt and let the bridge dry well. Remove it if it stays wet or dirty.
