Great little enrichment toy for small animals. The compartments are a little tight, but my hamster was still able to pull them out with a little bit of work. My concern is that it’s made out of plywood which might not be safe due to the glue, and the wood was not smoothed out, so there were a lot of splinters on every edge. If you smooth things out and seal it with a non-toxic sealant, it might make it a little safer to use.
The overall idea is fun, but this item has a few design flaws. The size is good for small pets of a certain size like a rabbit or a ferret, but I think it will be too big for a hamster.The box overall has mostly smooth wood, but the drawers and the area around the drawers are very rough and unfinished. I think that alone could cause some safety concerns if you pet uses his mouth to try and open the drawers or brushes his nose and face along the rough areas. Another thing I noticed is that the drawers don’t open very easily or evenly, so this could also be a challenge. I know it’s supposed to be a puzzle, but I don’t think the idea is to make it difficult to open once the pet figures out how to play with it. I also noticed what appears to be part of a nail in the wood, and it almost looks like it’s poking out of the middle drawer. It didn’t seem to be a sharp end, but it was still a concern.The drawers don’t have much depth, so it won’t hold a lot. It should hold enough to entertain your furry critter, though. There weren’t any instructions included or any suggestions/ideas on how to successfully use it, but I guess in theory it’s a simple concept that didn’t warrant any specific guidance.
These arenât made specifically for guinea pigs, but since itâs just wood I figured I would put it in their cage to see how they reacted to it. They actually figured it out pretty quickly because theyâre very persuaded by food. I just put some food in each one and they were able to grab a box and pull it out. The boxes do get stuck sometimes at an angle and you have to pull them yourself.Iâll be taking it out when they arenât playing with it because otherwise it will get chewed all the way down. But overall a fun activity to mix in with whatever you normally give your little rodent friends for activity.
ONLY USE THIS WHILE YOU CAN SUPERVISE YOUR PETS. The small animal treat box is made of plywood held together by glue (the maker says is non-toxic) and small metal pins! I can see small metal pins holding one of the drawer knobs in place, and other pins holding the frame together through a broken piece of plywood side (see photos). The finish of the rectangular (8â W x 3â D X 2â T) box is not smooth: I had numerous pieces of wood left in my lap after handling the box. Many animals are just going to enjoy chewing on the box itself, ingesting the wood and possibly the pins if left on their own. In theory, small animals will learn to open the drawers by pulling on the knobs, but depending on which animal you have, this could take some training, and patience, starting with the drawer partway open and slowly closing it over several sessions to give them the idea, if they can grab the knobs in some way. The three drawer compartments are about 1-1/2â x 1-3/4â so have a space to put a small amount of treats, like a couple of carrot slices or some kibble that is less than 1/2″ tall. I originally purchased this for my young grandchildren to use with their guinea pigs, but after seeing the pins and knowing how young children can become distracted, I donât think I will be using this after all.
I do not currently have a hamster or similar small pet, but I do have a very small dog who does tricks, one of which is opening drawers, so I thought Iâd try this with him. While he understood the concept of pulling on a drawer to get a treat, as heâs done it many times before, this set defeated him for a couple of reasons. The first is that the drawers are a tight fit into the box and, as I said, heâs a little guy with limited strength. The second problem for him is that the box is not divided inside so the drawers can move around while still inside, defeating his efforts again. Iâm going to wait a couple more days until any residual moisture in the wood from being outside in humidity has dissipated, sand down the edges of the drawers, and maybe also apply something like a wax which is safe for dogs to the drawers to make them slide out more easily. Since I donât want him to eat the wood I wonât use butter. Speaking of eating the wood, I have had hamsters in the past, and Iâd be very attentive when one, or any pet with chewing habits like hamsters, has access to the puzzle to be sure they donât eat their way to the treats through the raw plywood these are made of.
