FAQs
What animals is this tunnel suitable for?
This tunnel is specifically designed for rabbits and other small animals like guinea pigs and chinchillas.
Is the hay and carrot filling safe for my pet to eat?
Yes, the hay and carrot filling, as well as the wicker itself, are made from natural, safe materials for your small animal to consume.
How long will the tunnel last?
The lifespan of the tunnel depends on your pet's chewing habits. It is designed to be edible and will be consumed over time. The hay and carrot filling will be eaten first, followed by the wicker structure.
Do I need to assemble the tunnel?
No, the tunnel comes fully assembled and ready to be placed directly into your pet's habitat.
Can this tunnel be washed?
The tunnel is not designed to be washed. As it is edible and filled with hay, it is meant to be replaced once consumed or worn out.
What are the dimensions of the tunnel?
The tunnel measures approximately 330 mm in width and 150 mm in depth.
Is this product grain-free?
Yes, the TRIXIE Wicker Tunnel with Hay is described as grain-free.
Troubleshooting
Pet is hesitant to enter the tunnel.
Encourage your pet by placing a favorite treat at the other end of the tunnel, or by gently scattering some of the hay filling just inside the entrance.
Tunnel is being destroyed too quickly.
This is normal as the product is designed to be chewed. If you wish for it to last longer, consider providing it for shorter periods or introducing it alongside other chew toys.
Hay or carrot pieces are scattered around the habitat.
This is a natural behavior as pets forage. Regular habitat cleaning will help manage any scattered food items.
Tunnel appears to be getting moldy.
Ensure the habitat has adequate ventilation and that the tunnel is not placed in an overly damp area. Remove and discard the tunnel immediately if mold is present.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Simply place the TRIXIE Wicker Tunnel with Hay directly into your small animal's habitat. Ensure it is placed on a stable surface and allows easy access for your pet.
Compatibility: This tunnel is primarily designed for rabbits and other similarly sized small animals such as guinea pigs or chinchillas. It is suitable for use in standard cages, exercise pens, or during supervised free-roam time.
Care: As the tunnel is filled with hay and carrots and made of edible wicker, it is designed to be consumed by your pet. Once the hay and carrots are gone, and the wicker shows signs of significant chewing or wear, it should be replaced. Regularly check the tunnel for any damage or signs of mold, especially if your pet does not consume it quickly. Discard if it becomes soiled or damaged.
