About this piece
A cactus rat hide available as a round cactus, tall cactus or two-piece cactus set.

Production: Handmade to order in Cumbria. Dispatched in around 7 working days.
Before you order
The options contain different shapes and quantities, so use the variant photographs and hand-for-scale image to check the selected cactus against your available cage space, doorway and intended mounting position.
Care and safety
Wipe with a damp cloth and allow each piece to dry fully before returning it to the cage. Check the fittings and edges during normal cage cleans and remove a hide if it becomes damaged, rough or heavily chewed.
Delivery: Free UK shipping. Tracked international shipping is available at checkout.
Standard unused items can be returned within 14 days of delivery in their original condition.
How it fixes: a headless bolt screws into a threaded metal insert in the piece, goes through the cage and is held on the outside with washers and a wing nut, so it tightens by hand. Fits cage bars up to about 2.5 cm (1 in).
