Trixie Natural Living | Small Pet Enrichment | Wooden Playing & Digging Tower - 20cm

⭐ Product Overview

The Trixie Natural Living Wooden Playing & Digging Tower is a thoughtfully designed enrichment toy for small pets such as mice and hamsters. Built from natural, pet‑safe bark wood, this tower encourages instinctive digging, burrowing and exploring behaviours. The transparent acrylic viewing panel allows owners to watch their pets enjoy natural behaviours, while the enclosed design helps keep bedding neatly contained.

⭐ Key Benefits

• Encourages natural digging behaviour, allowing pets to burrow, tunnel and forage.

• Acrylic viewing pane lets you observe your pet without disturbing them.

• Two side entrances provide multiple access points and encourage exploration.

• Raised rim helps prevent bedding from spilling out during digging.

• Made from natural bark wood, dried and processed without resin channels for safety.

⭐ How to Use

Fill the tower with your chosen substrate — such as softwood shavings, paper bedding or a digging mix — and allow your pet to burrow and tunnel naturally. You can layer different textures to encourage exploration or hide small treats to stimulate foraging instincts. Place the tower in a stable area of the enclosure to prevent tipping.
