CKB LTD Wooden Hedgehog or Guinea Pig House 33.5 x 34 x 19cm 🐹

This wooden shelter is designed for hedgehogs and small pets to retreat, shelter and even hibernate outdoors. Its curved roof helps shed rain and the solid timber construction provides a warm, secure space for resting during colder months. The design also offers a discreet place for chicks or guinea pigs to nest when kept in a safe outdoor enclosure.

Key Points

This is a practical wooden hideaway that keeps hedgehogs protected from the elements and interested predators. It sits comfortably in a garden sheltered from strong winds with a dry, shaded position. A name plate is included so you can personalise the home for visiting animals. The double-depth design adds extra space inside, which can be beneficial for smaller mammals that appreciate a cosy interior.

Usage Recommendations

Place the house in a quiet, shaded part of the garden, away from direct sun and strong winds. Position it near dense shrubs or undergrowth to mimic natural shelter and encourage animals to settle inside. Before October, situate the shelter so hedgehogs can use it for hibernation and nesting. You can encourage use by adding dry grass and leaves inside as bedding. The wooden construction is robust enough for outdoor use, but consider checking the interior to ensure it remains dry after rainfall. For use as a decorative option in a secure outdoor area, it also accommodates small pets such as guinea pigs within an enclosure. 🦔 If moisture becomes an issue in your climate, you may want to add a simple rain shield or place the house on a slightly raised base to maintain a dry interior. 🐾
