How to use

Place the wooden hideout inside the enclosure on a stable surface or hang it using the wooden hook if the cage layout allows. Ensure the entrance faces away from direct drafts and that the hideout is positioned to avoid obstructing feeding or watering stations. Regularly check the hideout for damage from gnawing and replace it if splintering occurs to maintain a safe environment.

Usage recommendations

Introduce the hideout gradually and observe how individual animals use it; some may prefer a ground-level shelter while others use a suspended position. Clean the surrounding area regularly and avoid treating the wood with chemicals. Replace the hideout when signs of excessive wear appear to ensure ongoing safety and hygiene.
