Oxbow Enriched Life Timothy Apples & Stix Small Animal Chew Toy

The thicker, darker colored string that is used to hold the apple stick bundle together is made of jute, a long, soft vegetable fiber that has been spun into a coarse, strong thread. Though Jute is non-toxic and is safe to be chewed on, and consumed in small quantities, it is not meant to be a food source as the material has very little, to no, nutritional value. Small pets such as guinea pigs will instinctively chew on hard and fibrous materials, but they are not typically inclined to consume these non-nutritional materials. If you finds your guinea pig is consuming significant quantities of the jute, we recommend removing the jute from the bundle of apple sticks. The thinner, white string that is used to hold the apples and sticks to the packaging is not part of the chews themselves and is not intended to be offered to guinea pigs, or any other small mammal.

The Enriched Life Apples & Stix do not contain any plastic, whatsoever. They are constructed with small pet safe materials: timothy hay, untreated apple stick, jute, and rice glue (to help the "apples" hold their shape).

This chew toy is good for chinchillas, gerbils, hamsters, guinea pigs, mice, rabbits and rats.

This chew toy is recommended for hamsters.
