The cooling element has been specially developed to keep rodents and rabbits cool in the summer. When temperatures rise, it is important to provide the animals with a place to cool down. Rabbits in particular like to lie on or next to the cool pod in the summer.
✔ Provides cooling during hot days
The cooling element is particularly suitable for larger rodents and rabbits. The pod is colder than other cooling elements and also stays cold longer. This is especially ideal for larger rodents, multiple rodents or animals with a thicker coat.
Rodents cool off by walking over or lying on something cool. The surface must therefore be large enough for the animal. The cooling element is designed to lie on or next to. In practice we see that, for example, group animals such as rabbits lie down on one side of the pod and as the pod warms up, the animals lie on it. The latter can be a signal that the pod needs to be put back in the freezer.
Place the pod in the freezer for 3-4 hours and it is ready to use.
It is useful to have at least two cooling elements. If one has to be put in the freezer, the other can be placed with the animals and so they can be exchanged and the animals continue to keep a cool place.
Pay close attention to group animals that not the most dominant animals get control of the cooling element, if necessary add an extra one so that there is no quarrel in the group.
This pod comes without a cover, which is a shame because a cover is so ideal for such cooling elements. Fortunately, we have separate Icepod covers that are suitable for this pod. The pod must always be offered under supervision, the pod for Chinchillas must also have a cover. Without a cover, the Chinchilla's coat can get wet due to condensation.
