Shepherd Shacks Rat Shacks offer excellent enrichment for rodents, guinea pigs and ferrets. They are manufactured from unprinted, uncoated white book publisher-grade paper, which is then turned into molded cellulose. They allow rodents, guinea pigs and ferrets to engage in natural activities, including nest building, which helps reduce stress and aggression. They also offer a shelter for rodents to breed undisturbed and have been shown to help increase pup survival rates. Shepherd Shacks Rat Shacks are clean and consistent as well as disposable and compostable. You can also opt to autoclave and reuse them, making them an economical choice for your research facility. Shepherd Shacks Rat Shacks are also ink-, adhesive- and glue-free. In a recent study mice preferred the Shepherd Shack over other enrichment devices due to its characteristics in enhancing animal well-being. Shepherd Shacks are also available in multiple styles and designs!
