Oxbow Timothy Club Small Animal Hideout

The item itself is perfectly fine, I guess, for a hamster or mouse, but it came up when I was searching for ferret toys. The hideout is only slightly larger than a roll of toilet paper, and there's no way on earth that a ferret can get through that tiny opening--or even the gap at the bottom (which you really can't see from the product photo. I'd be surprised if a guinea pig could even get in, since their heads and bellies are larger than ferrets.

it’s advertised as a hide but i think it’s great for holding hay! my guinea pig is definitely to big to hide in it lol. it’s so much easier for my guinea pig rather than using a hanging hayrack. love it!

While not his primary hide, this product does offer my male Syrian Hamster a snug place to go when I'm spot cleaning around his cage. I put some bedding inside for him and he felt immediately comfortable. Keep in mind that when I say it's snug I really do mean that. I don't know that I would recommend this product for any animal larger than a hamster; even a female Syrian may find it a little small given that they tend to get larger than males. That said, this is a great little product.

It was fun watching my fur babies destroy and chew this up !! Unfortunately , I thought this was something they could crawl through or hide in because of the picture , not a biggie but wont be ordering again .. I'll stick to the ones I've ordered in the past ..

I ordered the small sized hideout for my fatty hammy and it ended up being bigger than I expected. So if you have a standard sized hamster cage just know that it will take up some space. My hamster loves it though. She is a chunky monkey and has no trouble getting through the hole. She likes it to chew on also which is exactly why I bought this type of hideout. I would never recommend getting one of the plastic hideouts because I think little fur babies get much more enjoyment out of the timothy hay hideouts.

Got this for my mice last may, it lasted until Feb. 2021. I got my male mouse a new one and hes already chewing it up! I'm glad that my mice like to chew on this stuff. I recommend getting this for any gerbil, hamster, or mouse!

My cat, Tidbit, found a baby dwarf rabbit and chased him into our apartment. She tends to do this with all kinds of critters. This time, he was so small that I took him and put him into our cat's crate until he grew older. (our crate has a top door and front door so he gets lots of light). I was afraid this would be too small but son of a gun, it works perfect on the side for him! He's doubled in size, but I think he's still only several months old. Tidbit, stop bringing babies home!~

While this is technically JUST big enough for my degus to use as a hideout, they don't seem to like how cramped it is. So I use it as a foraging feeder! I put some of their timothy hay inside and mix in some of their pellet food and a couple treats, like a sprinkling of oats and a couple sunflower/pumpkin seeds. They love rolling it around and foraging inside. They'll even carry it around the cage to wherever they want to rearrange it! Surprisingly, they've had these for a couple months now and HAVEN'T completely destroyed them! They chew a bit on it occasionally but they don't gnaw it to pieces like they do with some of their other chew toys. I love that it is made of 100% edible timothy hay While this is technically JUST big enough for my degus to use as a hideout, they don't seem to like how cramped it is.

The size would be perfect to use as a hideout for gerbils, hamsters, or mice. A little small for degus or rats but can definitely be used as enrichment in many other ways! … more

My guinea pigs were unable to fit in it. I also cut off one of the sides and they were still unable to fit all the way in. Great for rats, hamster, and maybe baby bunnies and baby guinea pigs.

This little hideout is absolutely perfect for my hamsters. I absolutely recommend this adorable hideout for mice, hamsters and gerbils. Not only a hideout, but perfect for the little nibblers providing a great source of Timothy hay. You can not beat the price or customer service with Chewy.
