Cocoon

The cocoon is designed to encourage your animals to forage, carry and shred to their hearts content to create a nest that is warm, soft and perfect for adults and pups alike.

  • Satisfies animals’ natural instincts to shred material for nests 
  • Short fibres are safe and create a warm, soft environment 
  • Reduces time normally spent portioning 
  • Limits experiment variability in comparison to non portion controlled nesting

About Cocoon

Cocoon has a small, cylindrical, lightweight form to allow your animals to transport it around their environment with ease. They are made from safe, short fibres which are tightly packed to encourage rodents to rip, shred and pull apart the material – just as they would in a natural habitat. 

The short fibres are completely safe for rodents and pups. They remain soft to the touch and trap the animals body heat to create a warm environment and aid thermoregulation.
