FAQ

Is this feeder suitable for dwarf rabbits?

Yes, size 2 is suitable for dwarf rabbits and small breeds. If you have a large breed rabbit, we recommend considering size 3 from the same Ferplast line for greater capacity.

Can wood splinter or be dangerous if my pet chews on it?

The wood is treated to be safe for gnawing, but as with any natural accessory, check the feeder periodically. If large splinters or sharp edges appear, replace it to prevent mouth injuries.

Can it also be used for vegetables or pellets?

Yes, the two-compartment design allows you to separate hay from other foods like fresh vegetables or pellets. However, keep in mind that the wood can absorb moisture from damp foods, so it's recommended to clean it more often if you use vegetables.

How do you clean it properly without damaging the wood?

Clean with a damp cloth and a little diluted vinegar to disinfect, then dry thoroughly in the air. Do not use bleach or harsh chemicals, and avoid submerging it in water to prevent the wood from swelling or warping.

Is it compatible with all cages?

The attachment system is designed for standard cage bars (approximately 2-3 cm apart). If your cage has very thick bars or wider spacing, it may not attach correctly. Measure the distance between the bars before purchasing.

How long does the feeder last approximately?

Durability depends on usage and your pet's chewing habits. Under normal conditions, with regular cleaning and no excessive chewing, it can last several months. If your pet chews a lot, you'll likely need to replace it every 2-3 months.
