Customers rave about these fresh, aromatic sticks that chinchillas absolutely love. "Grabbed from my hand and stripped of bark in about 5 minutes flat," notes one customer. The superior quality and freshness keep pets engaged, with customers saying their chinchillas now refuse other brands. The airtight packaging preserves freshness effectively.
The Apple Katanas, Kabobs, Team Toys and Apple Tossers are a hit with his Highness! Rocko now knows the sound of the bag of Apple Katanas and demands them when he hears it!
My chinchilla loves these! She "fast whiskers" when she sees the bag. The quality is top notch. I only buy her these apple sticks now....she literally won't chew on any other kind.
My chins absolutely love their Apple Katanas! I'm so happy I'm able to have products shipped to Italy so they can enjoy the enrichment they provide.The ordering experience with Little Pals is efficient, especially for International shipping, and the packaging is always excellent. The turnaround time is always prompt and the customer service is fantastic!
Fresh apple aroma can be detected two feet away from cage. Immediately ripped from my hand and stripped of bark in about 5 minutes flat. A big hit!!
My wife owns chinchillas. They’re not very grabby when it comes to being handed things, but they DO go absolutely bananas for the apple katanas regardless!
Always snagged and carried off to chew on immediately. My chinchilla loves it.
Both my girls are loving their Apple Katana’s. Much nicer then the ones you get at the pet store.
Matcha and Dumpling loves these apple sticks so much!
I was sad when it went out of stock for awhile, when I was gonna order more for them.
I hope it get restock soon.
These are quite simply THE best apple sticks! My chinchilla, Bella, would scoff at the other sticks I bought. She'd nibble a little and then toss them aside and I'd end up throwing them on in the fire pit. Now, when I offer her an Apple Katana, she literally GRABS it from my hand and goes to town, chewing off all the bark and usually destroying the rest of it overnight. I usually give her one by hand and hide the other one somewhere in her enclosure for her to find for enrichment. It's a winner!
Our chins scarf down these sticks!!! Always fresh and never dried up!!
I have tried all sorts of apple sticks for our chins from all over the market place. And when these first came out, our chins didn’t touch any other sticks. They are super picky and absolutely love the sticks here.
This is the equivalent of cocain for my chinchilla 🤣🤣 He loves these sticks SO much. The size is perfect for their paws, and im assuming it is also DELICIOUS with the amount of stripped sticks he collects 😭😭 Love these !! Never buying apple sticks from anywhere else !!
Superior quality- my chinch doesn’t want any other sticks now, these are the best
My Dusty loves these sticks! We love buying our goodies here.
I’ve bought apple sticks from numerous vendors in the past, Little Pals’ sticks are consistently fantastic! My chins always love them which is why I’ll keep them in stock so I don’t run out 😊
Rocko absolutely loves his Apple Katanas!
My chin is obsessed with these specific Apple sticks! Will definitely be ordering again. Little pals was also very helpful resolving an issue where my order got lost in the mail!
The overlooked seal is awesome! In my years of being a chinchilla mom, I purchased a lot of apple sticks from various manufacturers, and no bag contained a seal, not even a twisty tie. The bags would flop open without cares in the world. Bark does not go bad. Oh, but I beg to differ, and my chinchillas agree. My older chinchilla turned down one of his favorite treats for an Apple "Katana" Stick. Clearly, those stick manufacturers were not taking their jobs seriously. Little Pals is different. As long as you remember to close the seal, it is airtight to guarantee and preserve freshness.
My chin loves these !! Hes super picky, but when it comes to these, he'll eat the whole bag at once if i let him 🤣
Last night my chinchillas entered a whole new world of apple sticks. I was collecting bags of Apple "Katanas" Sticks because my boys had quite a few bundles left. Those were safe, but lately, I have come to question apple sticks not made in America. Those were not cheap, either; therefore, I made them finish those before bringing out the high-quality stuff. When I opened a bag of Apple "Katanas" Sticks, the first thing I noticed was the apple smell. So strong and fresh. These sticks were going to be good! I put five in my hand and presented my palm to my younger chinchilla. He actually took the stick out of my hand. A new gesture for him! It was more like an attack on the Katana. He chewed it as if it was corn on the cob. That gave him a spurt of high-quality enrichment. On a scale out of 5 with 1 being the most lethargic and 5 being the least lethargic, the energy level of my chinchillas bounced from a 2 (on these sticks are not very tasty, but I guess I will eat them because I do not have anything else) to a 5 (on Apple "Katanas" Sticks. It was fun and encouraging to see that high-quality enrichment!
These are the only sticks Enzo will eat now. I like the fact that we know exactly what ingredients are in these.
