I ordered this log for Sweep
Hamster Hut Natural Chew Toy (Web Exclusive) | Pets At Home
It arrived today, but I wanted to ask about it. When I ordered it I stupidly didn't read the entire description, and had thought it was just a log with a hole in the middle - that is what the picture looks like! So I was a little surprized when it turned up this morning to find the hole isn't actually a hole! It has some sort of soft center. So, I have popped back onto their site, and it says :
"Let your hamster enjoy chewing until his/her hearts content on a natural and safe product which keeps them busy and entertained. The Hamster Hut is the perfect way to help satisfy your hamsters natural urge to chew. Made from a soft,
chewable fibrous wood with a harder outer bark it is irresistible to small animals including hamsters, they can happily chew away and
shred up the soft inner wood until eventually they have a fun play house which they can run and climb through. Being a 100% natural product it is biodegradable, making it totally earth friendly as the wood is harvested from a renewable source."
My question is, is it safe to give to him? I don't really know what "fibrous wood" means ...
