Stacking Cups Rabbit Toy
Stacking Cups are a simple toy for bunnies but are among the most popular toys you can buy because they are cheap, hard-wearing and can be lots of fun repeatedly.
They typically come in packs of 8 multicolored cups that increase in size from up to about 3 inches wide. They can nest inside each other or can be stacked on top of each other to make a tower about 14 inches tall.
They are made from the same safe and durable Material that you would typically find in children’s toys so are resistant to chewing and you can be sure they won’t shatter into shards if they break. They can be left out when your rabbit is unsupervised outside. Make sure you buy Stacking cups that are BPA-free, and ABS-free plastic to be safe and designed.
There are three main ways to use them. Firstly, you can use them as a foraging toy by placing a treat inside them then nesting them inside each other. Your rabbit will enjoy pulling them apart to get to the treats. Another use is to build a tower where your rabbit can smash down something they find surprisingly irresistible. Lastly, they make good toss toys your rabbits will enjoy tossing about and making a noise with.
They are cheap and are easy to tidy away and keep clean, which makes them an excellent choice if you are looking for an all-round toy for your rabbit.
Our review of the Stacking cups rabbit toy
Where this toy really came into its own as a winner was when we were spending time playing together without buns and we found lots of things to do that would keep us and them engaged for ages. It became a game we would play over and again to stack them up and our bunny never got bored of knocking them over.
We also use to stack them up when we let our bunnies out into a room and knocking them over would be the first thing they would do when they came rushing in. We also use to hide treats in them before we stacked them up and this would help make the treats last a bit longer as we were mindful of their diet which was mostly hay.
We did use to play similar games with old toilet roll tubes, however it was always a worry that they would eat a lot of the card, and these did become messy when people visited so these quickly replaced them as a safe and more attractive alternative.
How a Stacking cups rabbit toy can help you bunny proof your home
Stacking cups can be a wonderful way to satisfy a lot of the instinctive behavior that can lead to destruction in your home. Rabbits are natural foragers and in the wild they would always be on the lookout for new things to eat.
This behavior in your home can mean your rabbit will want to chew everything.] Unfortunately mean they may end up nibbling the soft wooden corners of the baseboards or stripping off the wallpaper on your walls.
Using stacking cups as a foraging toy by hiding treats in or under them will help provide an acceptable alternative to this natural behavior which can help avoid the destruction and costly repairs.
Overall
Great for rabbits that like to make a noise and toss toys about.
