If I give hammocks to my hamsters, I tend to be vigilant, checking for any sign of chewing on a daily basis and removing it if necessary but in most cases if I put some toilet tissue inside, they have been content to make a snuggly nest there without needing to chew the hammock itself.

Thanks so much for your feedback! Unfortunately, Enigma is a BIG chewer. She had a rosewood hanging tube kind of thing which she used a lot. Then suddenly more or less overnight, she chewed it all up into tiny pieces. So on balance, probably not the kind of ham to give a hammock to!
