Hay n Play Rose
Hay ‘n’ Play Rose combines high-fibre Sweet Green Hay with delicate rose petals and lightly sweet apple slices to create a fragrant, engaging enrichment experience.
Packed inside a chew-safe box printed using water-based edible inks, this is more than just hay — it’s a boredom-busting, scent-rich activity that encourages pulling, shredding, chewing, and natural grazing behaviours.
The subtle sweetness of apple makes this particularly appealing to fussy eaters, while rose petals provide gentle digestive support and calming properties. Designed as enrichment first and nutrition second, this product supports dental wear and mental stimulation while keeping hay at the centre of the diet.
