Cooling Tile Trixie ceramic 35×25 cm for rabbit TX-63012

The Cooling Tile Trixie ceramic 35×25 cm for rabbit TX-63012 is a flat, varnished ceramic panel designed to provide a cool surface inside hutches and small mammal enclosures. Its dimensions of 35×25 cm offer a stable resting area that passively dissipates heat and helps rabbits regulate body temperature during warm weather. Rubber feet on the underside keep the tile in place and make it suitable for use on different floor types.

Advantages

The varnished ceramic construction offers durability and an easy-to-clean surface that can be wiped with a wet cloth. Passive cooling requires no electricity: placing the tile in the shade allows it to absorb and retain lower temperatures, and for additional cooling it can be placed briefly in a refrigerator prior to use. Rubber feet provide non-slip stability and reduce movement when animals settle on the tile. The design supports animal welfare requirements for temperature management.

Suitable for

• Rabbits in hutches or indoor pens as a cool resting surface
• Other small mammals that benefit from a cool, stable platform
• Temporary cooling during warm weather or heat waves

Key specifications

• Material: glazed/varnished ceramic
• Dimensions: 35 × 25 cm
• Surface: flat, smooth finish for easy cleaning
• Feet: rubber non-slip feet on the underside
• Cleaning: wipeable with a damp cloth
• Cooling type: passive thermal mass cooling (no electricity)

How to use

Place the ceramic cooling tile inside the hutch or pen on a stable, level area where your rabbit regularly rests. For standard passive cooling, position the tile away from direct sunlight in a shaded spot so it remains cooler than surrounding surfaces. For stronger cooling effect, place the tile in a refrigerator for a short time before returning it to the enclosure; avoid extreme temperature shocks and check that the tile is dry and not too cold for the animal. Wipe the surface with a wet cloth for routine cleaning and inspect rubber feet periodically to ensure firm contact with the floor.

Usage recommendations

Use the tile as part of a broader heat management plan: provide shade, fresh water, and ventilation alongside the cooling tile. Monitor animal behaviour and adjust placement so rabbits can choose the tile when they need it. Do not use as the sole method of cooling in extreme temperatures; combine with other welfare measures as needed.
