Auratus Cup Birch Tree Trunk for Rodents and Rabbits

Auratus Cup Tree Trunk 10 cm – natural birch wood cup for snacks, herbs and scaping

The Auratus Cup Tree Trunk is a natural birch wood cup for rodents and rabbits. Thanks to its robust tree trunk shape, it fits beautifully into a naturally decorated enclosure and can be used in various ways: as a snack bowl, herb bowl, foraging cup, small food bowl, or scaving bowl.

At DRD, when it comes to natural bowls, we focus primarily on their practical use. This Auratus Cup is approximately 10 cm high and has a natural, sturdy shape. For small animals, you can partially bury it in the bedding so that it stands lower and more stable. For larger animals, you use it mainly as a small snack or herb bowl, for example for dried herbs, flowers, leaves, pellets, or a small portion of treats.

Advantages of the Auratus Cup Tree Trunk

✔ Made of natural birch wood
✔ Natural tree trunk shape that blends beautifully into the enclosure
✔ Handy for herbs, flowers, leaves, snacks, or a small portion of food
✔ Can be partially buried for small animals for a lower entry
✔ Great as a small aquaculture container or foraging spot

Why choose the Auratus Cup?

The Auratus Cup is ideal when you want to create a feeding or snack spot that fits a natural setup better than a standard bowl. The tree trunk shape looks calm and robust, allowing the cup to combine beautifully with cork, moss, humus, bark, willow, deep bedding, and other landscaping materials.

For mice, dwarf hamsters, hamsters, and gerbils, you can partially bury the cup in the bedding. This way, it sits lower, is more stable, and looks more natural in the enclosure. You can place a small amount of herbs, flowers, seeds, pellets, or a snack inside, for example. Your animal will then have to make just a little more effort to reach it, making snack time more interesting.

For rats, rabbits, chinchillas, and degus, you use the Auratus Cup primarily as a small snack or herb bowl. Think of a few dried herbs, leaves, flowers, or a targeted snack portion. This way, the cup does not become a large feeding station, but rather a beautiful natural detail that helps to make the enclosure more varied.

Auratus Cup, Kudus Cup or Bali Cup?

The Auratus Cup is a natural birch wood cup with a calm, light appearance. If you are looking for a compact tree trunk cup in mahogany, the Kudus Cup is a good fit. If you are looking for a larger, more striking cup with more capacity, the Bali Cup is a logical choice.

So choose the Auratus Cup when you are looking for a natural birch wood snack or herb spot that pairs beautifully with light woods, birch tunnels, hamsterscaping, and gerbilscaping.

For which animals is the Auratus Cup Tree Trunk suitable?

• Mouse: suitable as a small snack bowl, herb bowl, or natural landscaping element. You can partially bury the cup so that mice can easily access it.
• Dwarf hamster: suitable as a snack cup, herb bowl, or small aquapark container. By placing it in the bedding, it stands lower and more stable in the enclosure.
• Hamster: suitable as a natural snack or herb bowl. For Syrian hamsters, it is especially useful to partially bury the cup so that your hamster can access it more comfortably.
• Gerbil: suitable as a sturdy snack bowl or foraging cup. Gerbils can explore the cup and use it as part of a natural gerbilscaping setup.
• Dwarf rat: suitable as a small herb, snack, or foraging bowl. Because dwarf rats can vary in size, observe primarily how your animals use the cup.
• Rat: suitable as a small snack cup, herb bowl, or foraging spot. For rats, use it primarily as an enriching detail, not as a large food bowl.
• Rabbit: suitable as a small herb or snack bowl. Due to its compact size, it is especially handy for a small portion of extras, not as a large main food bowl.
• Chinchilla: suitable as a small container for herbs, leaves, or flowers. Not intended as a sand bath; for that, a chinchilla needs a much larger sand bath area.
• Degu: suitable as a small bowl for herbs, leaves, or snacks. Use it, for example, for a small foraging portion within a natural setting.

This cup is usually less practical for guinea pigs because it is relatively high. If you still want to use it for a guinea pig, it must be placed securely and low enough, for example, partially sunk into suitable bedding. In many cases, a lower or larger bowl is more practical for guinea pigs.

Usage & placement

Place the Auratus Cup in a stable spot in the enclosure. For small animals, you can partially bury the cup in the bedding. This makes it stand lower, sturdier, and more natural. This fits nicely into hamsterscaping and gerbilscaping, where food and snack spots are often incorporated into the design.

Do you want to make snack time more active? Then don't always place the cup in exactly the same spot, but vary it gradually within the enclosure. You can also scatter some herbs, flowers, or small snacks around the cup so that your animal has to search before reaching the bowl.

For larger animals such as rats, rabbits, chinchillas, and degus, use the cup primarily as a small bowl for treats. Keep the portion size deliberate and appropriate for the animal species. For chinchillas and degus, choose herbs, leaves, flowers, and hay rather than fruity or sweeter snacks.

Cleaning & maintenance

Because this is a natural wooden bowl, it is best to keep the Auratus Cup dry and clean. Remove loose residue after use and wipe the cup with a slightly damp cloth if necessary.

In case of a minor accident, you can use a suitable urine remover locally, such as CSI Urine Spray. Allow the wood to dry thoroughly afterwards before placing the cup back in the enclosure.

Use the Auratus Cup primarily for dry contents, such as herbs, leaves, flowers, seeds, kibble, or dry snacks. This keeps the wood looking neat for longer and ensures the bowl fits beautifully into a natural, well-maintained interior.
