Before choosing a product

Different species need different habitats. Rabbits and guinea pigs need continuous access to suitable hay; hamsters need safe, deep burrowing substrate. These are product options, not an interchangeable shopping list for every small pet. Remove splintered or damaged items and check all hardware regularly.
