PINOKIO chinchilla bathtub Pino-43 large model for small mammals

PINOKIO Pino-43 large chinchilla bathtub is a shallow, rigid basin designed for dust and sand baths for small mammals. The product provides a contained area that helps animals roll and groom themselves while keeping dust contained. Suitable for placement inside cages or in a supervised area outside the cage, the bathtub facilitates regular hygiene routines and supports healthy fur maintenance for chinchillas and other small pets.

Advantages

The bathtub is sized to allow natural dust-bathing behavior while minimizing spillage and mess. Its durable plastic construction is easy to clean and resistant to the fine abrasive dust used for grooming. The shallow profile makes it accessible for small mammals to enter and exit without assistance, and the smooth interior surface reduces dust retention. The design supports repeated use and straightforward maintenance.

Suitable for

• Chinchillas
• Degu and gerbils
• Small rabbits and similar small mammals for dust or sand baths
• Use inside cages, on cage platforms, or in supervised play areas

Key specifications

• Type: shallow bathtub for dust/sand baths
• Material: rigid plastic (easy to clean)
• Shape: rectangular/rounded basin with smooth interior
• Capacity: suitable for one or more small mammals to roll comfortably
• Access: low rim for easy entry and exit

How to use

Place the bathtub on a flat surface inside the pet's enclosure or in a supervised area outside the cage. Add an appropriate layer of chinchilla dust or fine sand to a depth that allows the animal to roll without touching the base. Allow the pet to enter and bathe freely for short sessions according to species-specific guidance. After use, remove soiled dust and replace with fresh dust as needed; wash the bathtub periodically with mild soap and water and dry thoroughly before refilling.

Usage recommendations

Provide dust baths 2–3 times per week for chinchillas or as recommended for the specific species. Avoid using wet sand or dirt; use only grooming dust formulated for small mammals. Monitor supervised baths to prevent ingestion of dust and to ensure the animal does not overheat or become stressed.
