I woke up this morning to find Dolly's right ear extremely red. The left one is normal. I've checked it over for any signs of scratches, discharge, etc but found nothing. It looks normal except for the red. My first thought was that she's too hot but wouldn't both ears be red? And it's not that...

Hi All!! I just bought a grass ball for Dolly but wanted to make sure it was safe for her before I put it in her cage. It came from Orscheln's. It's called a Peter's Play ball. It's for rabbits & small animals. Says on the package it's natural grass & safe to chew. If anyone could help, that'd...

Hey everyone, I've decided that instead of building Dolly a new cage right now, I'm going to remodel the one she's in now. I'm not the most creative person so was wondering if any of you had the same cage, if you could show me pictures or explain how you have it set up to give me ideas? I have a...

There's a guy down the road that has a big pile of branches. The electric company trimmed them from the power lines. Only problem is, he doesn't know anything about trees & has no idea what kind they are. Is there any way to find out & eliminate them from the bad wood list? Would love to make...

I'm so happy I just had to share :) I received Dolly a month or so before Christmas. She had been kept in a small cage, hardly ever taken out. Fed Wal-Mart's rabbit food & no hay. No toys or anything to chew on. I quickly bought her a much bigger cage, chinchilla food, and a TON of toys. Within...

I just joined the group. I currently live in Kansas. I love animals. I have 2 dogs, a cat, a horse, & of course Dolly, the chinchilla. I used to own 2 chins years ago and have always wanted another one. I received Dolly as a Christmas present. She's been a lot of joy :) I'm looking forward to...

My cat just got ahold of my chin....He stuck his paw through the cage :( My chin mainly suffered lost hair but there is a spot right under her ear where some of the skin was pulled off. Not real big...Just kind of a dot size area about the size of a pencil...She's running around her cage...
