One piece of natural untreated slate. It will help to keep your hamster's nails short.

What are the benefits of using this slate with hamsters?

  • Helps to keep nails worn down
  • Flat and square so easy to position on walkways
  • Hold temperature quite well
  • Non mineral rock so it's safe for hamsters
  • Easy to clean
  • Not chemically treated

Will this slate mean I don't have to take my hamster to the vet to get their claws trimmed?

For most people this is the case. I have never had to have Flamey's claws trimmed at a vet and many of my customers have told me that they were on the verge of a vet visit before they got the slate. 

How do the slates keep my hamster's nails short?

These slates are flat and square so they are easy to lay down in your hamster's usual walkways. I tend to put them under Flamey's water and by his wheel because then he walks over them often. This has kept his nails at a great length.

What size will my hamster's slate be?

Because they are natural slate the shape and size varies. The pieces I have at the moment are about 14cm long and 10cm wide. If you need your stone to be a specific shape or size send me a message and I will do what I can to help.

Perfect product.

Brought this product to finish off my Hammys very large, very cared for enclosure. I popped them in walk ways in which she uses regularly and within a week I could feel the difference in her little nails. Also received a very helpful guide and a taster food (which my little Lattè loves!) Will most definitely order again. Thank you xx

Thank you so much, Abbey! 😊 I’m thrilled the slate is working so well for Lattè (what an adorable name) and it’s lovely to hear how much care and thought you’ve put into her enclosure. I’m so glad the guide and little taster were helpful too, it means the world to know you’re happy with everything! I can’t wait to help with your next order.

Good for keeping nails trimmed

My little ham is a wriggler and does not comply with getting her nails clipped easily. We got this stone instead to help keep them short and it is working already. Also looks nice in her enclosure.

Thank you so much, Louise! 😊 I’m so glad the slate is helping with nail care it’s such a great alternative for a wriggly little one! It’s wonderful to hear you like the look of it in her enclosure too.

Delivery was very quick.
Popcorn was unsure of the slate at first but now he happily walks over it to reach his water and food. Hopefully it helps his claws wear down a bit more!
