They like to sleep where no-one can see them, usually burrowing will need suitable material inside the nests/ ‘houses’ (see ‘new owners’ below).

There’ also mini-sleeping-bag type beds, which they can snuggle into – not much on chewing front but tick for hiding urge.

Soft hay sold especially for small animals (so it won’t poke delicate eyes or otherwise hurt them)
Clean white kitchen paper so they can make their bed with it – not cotton wool, not newspaper

Toys for stimulation – cardboard tubes, wooden cotton reels
