Wood Varnish Safe For Guinea Pigs?

[Ron]

Hello, I recently bought this flat cut of wood and wanted to use it as the occasional veggie dish for my pigs.

My issue is that i would like to coat it with a protective varnish to make the wood "water resistant" & easier to clean.

Is it not recommended to do so even if I find an animal safe varnish?
Is it safe at all?
Is there any kind of varnish you can recommend?

The wood is fabulous!
And it is fine to use an animal safe paint on it.
Just go to any local DIY store and ask for water based animal friendly products.
If you update your profile with the country you live in, then members might be able to advise you on specific brands.

And welcome to the forum.

Thank you! I'm going for a natural habitat look so I thought this would be a perfect addition. And I surely with add my country
