Trixie pet tunnel model TX-44252, 18 × 20 cm, gray

Trixie pet tunnel TX-44252 is a compact gray play and hiding tunnel sized 18 × 20 cm, designed for small pets that enjoy enclosed spaces. The tunnel provides a sheltered area for play, rest and exploration and can be placed indoors or carried to training and enrichment sessions. Its lightweight construction makes it easy to move and store while the neutral gray finish integrates unobtrusively into home interiors.

Advantages

The tunnel offers a simple sheltered space that supports natural hiding and exploration behaviours in small animals. Its compact dimensions make it suitable for limited spaces and easy to fit into cages, playpens or corners of a room. The lightweight design ensures portability and straightforward storage when not in use. Constructed to provide a defined enclosed area, it helps reduce stress by giving pets a private retreat.

• Small rodents such as hamsters, mice and gerbils
• Small rabbits and dwarf bunny breeds for short-term play and hiding
• Ferrets and young or small-sized household pets that prefer confined spaces
• Indoor play areas, pet training sessions and environmental enrichment setups

Key specifications

• Colour: gray
• Intended use: play, hiding and short-term rest
• Suitable for: small pets and animals that prefer enclosed spaces

How to use

Place the tunnel on a stable, flat surface inside the pet's enclosure or in a supervised play area. Introduce the tunnel gradually, allowing the animal to explore at its own pace; you can place familiar bedding or a small treat at the entrance to encourage investigation. Supervise initial interactions to ensure the pet moves through the tunnel comfortably and does not exhibit signs of distress. When used outside a cage, situate the tunnel away from drafts and elevated edges where a pet could fall.

Usage recommendations

Regularly inspect the tunnel for wear or damage and replace it if the structure becomes compromised. Clean according to the material type—remove bedding and wash or wipe with a pet-safe cleaner as needed. Use the tunnel as part of a varied enrichment program, rotating it with other toys and hiding places to maintain the pet's interest.
