"We have been doing long-distance hikes with our two children for some time now and every year we have a little surprise for them. Of course, we can't carry big or heavy things with us.
It is not so easy to find something. After two little mice took part the last year, we wanted to equip them with a tent of their own.
We had ripstop nylon leftovers from the sewing projects for our gear, and so the two mice tents came into being....
HubbaBubba XXS - one to two-mouse igloo tent
Description:
Ultralight single-wall tent for lightweight hiking mice - the first and best of its kind!
Fast pitching and removal thanks to revolutionary, bendable wire poles.
Caution: not cat-proof!
Technical details:
- Material: ripstop nylon, silicone-coated
- Frame: Bowden cable with fabric-protecting aluminium end caps
- lying surface 110x150 mm

It was a lot of fiddling, but it was worth it!"

This picture gave me a big smile. I am sure all other animals-travellers would want such gear too. Lovely little project!
