Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The hutch arrives in flat-pack form and requires basic assembly. Use a standard screwdriver, though a cordless drill on a low torque setting can speed up the process. Ensure you assemble the unit on a flat, level surface.
Compatibility: This model is specifically sized for 1-2 small rabbits or guinea pigs. It is not suitable for larger animals or high-energy pets that might compromise the structure.
Care: To extend the life of the wood, apply a non-toxic pet-safe wood sealant annually. Regularly check all wire mesh for signs of rust or loosening, and ensure the slide-out trays are dried completely after cleaning before sliding them back into the hutch.
