Much like people, most research animals love to play with balls! The PureMade Ball is specifically designed to maximize utility by allowing for multiple applications. Animals can bat it around, roll it, and use it to satisfy their natural instinct to chew and gnaw. The “plus”-shaped hole in the center lets you attach a chain to secure the ball to the cage top or sides. This center hole also allows the ball to serve as a foraging device—just stuff it with treats like peanut butter, Nutella, hay, fruit, or veggies. You can also freeze treats in the center to lengthen engagement time and provide mental stimulation as the animal works to access them. The PureMade Ball is autoclavable and cagewasher safe. Like all PureMade™ items, this animal enrichment device is 100% natural and nontoxic—supporting animal welfare, research integrity and reproducibility.
