Environmental Enrichment for Rodents
Ancare Nestlets
2" square
Nestlets are a wonderful nesting material for mice, hamsters, gerbils, rats, rabbits and other small animals. They are chemically inert, odorless and non-ingestible. Made of pulped virgin cotton fiber, they are also clean, dust-free and autoclavable. In harmony with the natural instincts of rodents, Nestlets retain warmth without obstructing airflow or humidity dissipation. Inert and non-ingestible, Nestlets will not compact or form threads or ligatures. They are also soft, absorbent and non-irritating, even to newborn young.
Sold in cases of 3,600.
Enrichment is Key to Animal Welfare
Just like humans, animals need a chance to exercise their minds and have control over their environment. And like humans, lab animals also enjoy toys and treats! That's why environmental enrichment is key to animal welfare—minimizing boredom, stress and stereotypic behaviors such as pacing and rocking. It's as essential as proper nutrition to the well-being of the laboratory animals under your care.
Enrichment products offer animals experiences similar to those they encounter in the wild, such as the opportunity to nest, build, forage, explore and exercise. The result? Happier, healthier animals!
