Bridge Trixie TRIXIE 6199 for Hamster and Mouse, Wooden, W160 x D200 mm

The Trixie TRIXIE 6199 wooden bridge for hamster and mouse is a compact accessory designed to increase usable habitat area and encourage natural behaviours in small rodents. With a width of 160 mm and depth of 200 mm, the wooden surface provides traction for climbing and a stable platform for resting or chewing. The simple, natural construction fits inside a variety of cage layouts and can be placed to connect levels, create sheltered spaces underneath, or add a textured surface for activity.

Advantages

The wooden bridge is made from natural wood that offers a non-slip surface and is suitable for gnawing, which helps keep incisors worn to a healthy length. Its compact dimensions make it easy to position in small enclosures without occupying excessive space. The product is lightweight and unobtrusive, allowing owners to change the cage layout quickly to provide environmental enrichment and varied movement routes for hamsters and mice.

Suitable for

• Hamsters and mice in cages or enclosures
• Creating additional platforms or level connections
• Providing a gnawable, textured surface for dental wear
• Designing sheltered spots or hiding areas underneath the bridge

How to use

Place the wooden bridge on a secure, level area inside the cage or use it to connect two levels where the depth and width fit the enclosure layout. Ensure the bridge is stable and cannot tip when the animal climbs on it. Supervise initial introductions so the pet becomes familiar with the new surface. Regularly inspect the wood for excessive wear or splinters and replace the bridge if damage could pose a hazard. Clean surrounding cage areas as needed; the wooden surface itself should not be soaked—wipe with a damp cloth if necessary and allow to dry before returning to the cage.

Usage recommendations

Position the bridge where it enhances movement and exploration but does not block access to essential resources such as food, water, or nesting areas. Rotate or relocate accessories periodically to maintain environmental enrichment. Check the wood frequently for chew damage and replace when structural integrity is compromised.
