Treats are more than just a reward — for small pets they're a tool for bonding, dental health, and mental enrichment. But not all treats are created equal. Our Small Animal Treats collection carries three very different options: high-fibre loops for hand-feeding and bonding, grain-free breakfast cookies in a variety of flavours, and hard-baked carrot and fennel sticks for dental health. Here's how they compare.
1. Supreme Selective Naturals Woodland Loops – High Fibre Rabbit Treats, 80g
£18.28
The Supreme Selective Naturals Woodland Loops are the bonding treat — designed specifically for hand-feeding and interactive play. The loop shape and soft texture make them ideal for offering by hand, helping you build a trusting relationship with your rabbit, guinea pig, chinchilla, or degu through positive reinforcement. The high-fibre formula supports healthy digestion, and the natural ingredient list is free from artificial colours and unnecessary additives. At £18.28 for 80g, they're the most premium treat per gram in this comparison — but the Supreme Selective brand is one of the most trusted names in small pet nutrition, and the bonding value is real.
Best for: Rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas, degus; hand-feeding, bonding, positive reinforcement training.
Weight: 80g | Key benefit: High fibre, gut health support | Format: Loop shape | Free from: Artificial colours | Brand: Supreme Selective Naturals
2. Rosewood Naturals Grain-Free Breakfast Cookies – Small Animal Treats, 110g
£14.00
The Rosewood Naturals Grain-Free Breakfast Cookies are the variety treat — a 110g pack containing six cookies across three flavour combinations: Dandelion & Sunflower, Marigold & Banana, and Parsley, Raspberry & Banana. Made from 100% natural ingredients including pea flakes, dried banana, carrot, apple, raspberries, and sunflower petals, they contain no sugar, honey, or artificial binders like gelatine. The grain-free formula makes them suitable for the widest range of small pets: rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils, rats, mice, chinchillas, and degus. At £14.00, they're the most affordable option in this comparison and the best choice for owners who want variety and flavour diversity in their pet's treat rotation.
Best for: Rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils, rats, mice, chinchillas, degus; variety-seeking owners, grain-free diets.

3. Rosewood Naturals Carrot & Fennel Sticks – Small Animal Treats, 140g
£14.46
The Rosewood Naturals Carrot & Fennel Sticks are the dental health treat — and the most functional of the three. The firm, hard-baked texture is specifically designed to act as a dental chew, naturally wearing down small animal teeth that grow continuously and can cause serious health problems if left unchecked. The long-lasting stick format also encourages natural foraging and gnawing behaviour, keeping pets mentally stimulated and reducing boredom in the enclosure. Made from 100% natural carrot and fennel with no artificial additives, the 140g pack contains two sticks — the largest weight in this comparison. At £14.46, they're excellent value for a treat that actively contributes to your pet's dental wellbeing.
Best for: Rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, rats, mice, gerbils; dental health, gnawing enrichment, boredom reduction.
Weight: 140g (2 sticks) | Key benefit: Dental chew, tooth wear, foraging enrichment | Ingredients: Carrot & fennel | Free from: Artificial additives | Brand: Rosewood Naturals

Which Small Animal Treat Is Right for Your Pet?
These three treats serve genuinely different purposes, so the best answer for most small pet owners is to rotate between them. If you want a treat specifically for hand-feeding and building a bond with your rabbit, guinea pig, or chinchilla, the Supreme Selective Woodland Loops at £18.28 are the premium pick from one of the most trusted brands in small pet nutrition. If you want the most variety and flavour diversity — and you need something suitable for the widest range of species including hamsters, rats, and mice — the Rosewood Breakfast Cookies at £14.00 are the most affordable and versatile option. And if your pet's dental health is a priority — as it should be for any small animal owner, since overgrown teeth are a serious welfare concern — the Rosewood Carrot & Fennel Sticks at £14.46 are the most functional treat in the range, actively contributing to tooth wear and gnawing enrichment.
