Care Instructions for Raising a Totoro

One: Environmental Management Tips

For a comfortable living environment, Totoros prefer temperatures ranging from 10 to 25 degrees Celsius, ideally around 20 degrees. During winter, if the temperature dips below 11 degrees, it's crucial to provide adequate warmth to prevent them from catching a cold. In summer, temperatures above 26 degrees require immediate cooling measures, such as using air conditioning or placing ice blocks around the area. Totoros are prone to overheating in hot conditions, so it's essential to avoid excessive exercise and keep them out of direct sunlight during the warmer months. When taking them outdoors, be sure to shield them from the wind to prevent heatstroke. Additionally, use air conditioning to cool the room, but maintain a gentle breeze.

Since Totoros are sensitive to moisture, it's vital to keep the humidity below 40%. Ensure the environment is wellventilated and the air is fresh. Regular sand baths can help prevent skin fungal issues caused by dampness.

As nocturnal creatures, Totoros enjoy soft lighting and should be kept away from areas with intense sunlight or direct exposure to bright lights.

Two: Caging Management Tips

Totoros have a natural urge to chew, so it's important to provide a sturdy, tall cage that offers ample space for them to move around, run, and jump. Avoid placing the cage near loud noises, such as speakers or busy windows, as Totoros are easily startled by noise and can become stressed. Maintain a quiet living space to prevent stressrelated hair loss and reduced appetite. Also, protect your Totoro from potential threats like rodents, cats, and dogs, which can cause significant stress.

Three: Diet Management Tips

Totoros are herbivores, primarily eating alfalfa, Timothy hay, and specialized pellets. You can also offer them fruits like apples and vegetables, ensuring a balanced diet. Hay is essential, as it not only meets their nutritional needs but also helps with their dental health. Offering them occasional treats like apple twigs or hay cakes can aid in their dental maintenance. Be cautious with fruits and vegetables that have high water content, as they can lead to diarrhea. Instead, opt for dried fruits or freezedried vegetables. Always ensure fresh water is available, and replace it regularly to keep it clean.

These are just a few examples of the care your Totoro will need. We hope these tips will be helpful to all Totoro enthusiasts!
