As part of their 10th Birthday celebrations we were delighted that the lovely folk at Rosewood Naturals sent the Squidgypigs a selection of their latest products to test.
Today we are reviewing Rosewood Naturals’ Woven Stack ‘n’ Hide den.
What is it?
- A woven hidey tunnel with well proportioned entrances.
- Made only from natural materials (bulrush).
- Contains no glue or wires.
Rosewood describe the Stack ‘n’ Hide as a:
“Large play and sleep tunnel for guinea pigs, chinchillas, rats and degus. 33cm long and 15cm square with holes for scurrying in and out of.”
– Rosewood
What can your pet do with it?
- Hide in the den (See Doughnut above).
- Sleep in the den.
- Stack two dens on top of each other for piggy-block-of-flats fun.
- Climb on top of the den.
- Run through the den as a tunnel.
- Chew/eat the den.
- You could hide hay or treats in the den to give your piggies a challenge.

Where Can I Buy A Woven Stack ‘n’ Hide?
- Independent pet shops.
- Online Stack n Hide
- This is a new product so if you can’t find a Stack ‘n’ Hide in your local pet supply shop they should be happy to order you one.
- The Woven Stack ‘n’ Hide is made from 100% natural bulrush.
- Stack ‘n’ Hides aren’t intended as a food source but will certainly do no harm if (or more accurately when) your Guinea Pig chews or snacks upon it.
- Chewing on the Stack ‘n’ Hide will help your Guinea Pig keep their ever-growing teeth healthy.
- Because the Stack ‘n’ Hide is entirely woven from bulrushes there are no structural wires or hidden glue that could endanger your pets.
Review:
- The Stack ‘n’ Hide Den must smell very appealing to Guinea Pigs because the first thing the Squidgypigs did was start tearing mouthfuls off.
- Alongside eating and pooping one of any Guinea Pig’s favourite activities is “pushing a friend out of a comfy bed” so it comes as no surprise that the competition for the comfiest spot in the Stack ‘n’ Hide Den is hotly contested.
- The weave is structurally sound and sturdy whilst still being sufficiently comfy to warrant “pushing your friend out of their bed”.
- As prey animals Guinea Pigs love tunnels and I can envisage much fun can be had simply by running through the den.
- The holes in the den are a generous size and even our fattest of fluffs could easily squidge through at one point easily fitting two full size fat fluffers in the den.
Conclusion:
- Each Squidgypig had a fantastic time with the Rosewood Naturals Woven Stack ‘n’ Hide Den.
- They enjoyed chewing, eating and playing in and on the den.
- I think this product would be a fantastic addition to any Guinea Pig cage. It’s well proportioned and seems a very safe and enjoyable toy.
