Hygiene in Small Animal Homes

The well-being of small animals is closely linked to the cleanliness of their home. If it is dirty, the animals do not feel comfortable and become more susceptible to illnesses. Regular cleaning of the hutch or enclosure is very important for owners. For example, we offer corner toilets for small animals, which help reduce dirt caused by urine and feces. The owner's work is made easier once the animals are trained to use this kind of toilet. You can also fill the corner toilets with bedding. Daily cleaning of bowls and water bottles is equally important for small animals. Proper cleaning ensures hygiene and minimizes risks of infection. Just like with humans, bacteria can easily accumulate on bowls and bottles, and the comparison to eating or drinking from dirty dishes says it all.

For rabbits and guinea pigs, the hygiene of the outdoor enclosure and hutch requires that the bedding be changed at least once a week. The type of bedding does not influence this. To optimize care, a thick layer of hay or straw should be spread over an evenly distributed layer of bedding. This has several advantages: the ground is soft, and there are opportunities for eating and playing. Being stingy in this area would be a mistake. Complementary grooming tools can further maintain small animal health.
