"My bun love all the different textures/materials!! I can hide some pellets and treats in the fluffy portions for her to dig through, and she likes to chew on the rest of the toy when there aren't any treats."

Bottom Line

This Oxbow toy provides a delightful play-and-chew experience for pets. It’s a great enrichment item, especially with the variety in textures and hiding spots. However, if durability is your top concern, you might want to consider a more robust toy.
