Oxbow Timothy Hay 4 kg.

The Exotic Animal Vet’s High Fibre, Highly Palatable Hay Choice.

Timothy Hay's high fibre and low protein is credited with helping prevent obesity, maintaining a healthy urinary system and improving overall health. And bonus – they LOVE it!

Oxbow’s all-natural Western Timothy Hay is a nutritious, sweet-smelling grass that will stimulate the appetite of your rabbit, guinea pig, or other small pet.

PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS:

• Harvested fresh from Oxbow’s family of farms.

• Smaller sizes (425g and 1.13kg) are hand-sorted and hand-packed.

• Provides essential fibre to support digestive and dental health.

• No artificial colours, flavours, or preservatives.

THE IMPORTANCE OF HAY IN THE DIET OF SMALL HERBIVORES:

DIGESTIVE

The fibre in hay facilitates the constant digestive movement that small herbivores require to maintain digestive health.

Disrupting this movement can lead to a number of gastrointestinal issues, some of which can be life-threatening. Providing grass hay most closely mimics the foraging activity small herbivores would perform in nature.

DENTAL

Small herbivores require constant chewing of hard, fibrous foods (i.e. hay) to provide necessary dental wear. The teeth of rabbits and guinea pigs never stop growing, making it critical to provide a proper diet centred around hay.

A diet with insufficient hay can lead to dental issues, including disease and malocclusion.

MENTAL

Hay is not just great for the body of small pets, it is essential to their mental health as well!

Access to a variety of hay provides mental stimulation, keeping pets active and healthy.

Try placing hay in as many locations as possible through your pet’s living space.
