    Cat Owners -- Has anybody ever used these?

    My cats are constantly scratching up my carpets and furniture no matter how often I clip their nails and how many scratching posts I provide for them. I do not believe in declawing them and would never want to put them through that. I have tried using a squirt bottle, but they are really smart...

    Drinking a lot of water ...

    So I stopped changing my chins water every day for just a little while so that I could judge how fast they drink the whole bottle. I believe it's an 8 oz bottle and Fonzie can finish it in 2 days time. Casper takes about 4 days. Considering I read that chinchillas don't drink a lot of water...

    Picking up my kitten today! Name ideas please!

    We're picking up an all black little male kitten today :)) The best part about him is that he has 3 extra toes on each of his front paws! He wouldn't sit still enough for me to check his back feet but he's got some extra toes there as well. It's so cute because it looks like he has a thumb...

    Trying to peel my nail polish off .. haha!

    I painted my nails last night for the first time since I've had Fonzie. This morning, after they were long dry and didn't smell anymore, I was poking around cleaning his cage a bit (he makes such a mess at night lol). He rushed over to me and immediately started to try to chew on my nails! I...

    Good place to buy FN cages?

    OK So I have seen all these fancy FN cages all over the site. I'm pretty sure Fonzie is staring at the computer like "Why can't I have a fancy cage like that, Mom!?" I'm going to have to wait until summertime to buy one, but I wanted to know what is a good place or website with reasonable...

    is this wood ok?

    I've seen on many sellers websites, grape vine wood is sold. I've seen it in wreath form and just plain stick form. My mother has a wild grape vine in her backyard and the the birds devour the grapes each spring and summer. She has never used any sort of pesticides on it. We were wondering...

    I have a bit of a dilemma here ..

    As some of you may know, I just bought my first chinchilla, Fonzie (standard, gray, male), about a week ago at a local PetSmart. He is the best pet decision I have ever made, hands down. I love him to death! He's such a sweetheart. Onto the problem ... There's another pet store in my area...

    rose hips?

    I just purchased toys, rose hips and various other treats from a seller on this website. I was just curious as to how I'm supposed to cut the rose hips up to give them to my chin, Fonzie. They look like they may have seeds in them. Can he eat the seeds? I've never heard of rose hips before...

    Bonding with my new chinchilla .. ?

    So I have had my first chinchilla, Fonzie, for about a week. I'm almost positive that he's at least semi comfortable with me. He takes dust baths freely in front of me, takes treats from me, licks & sits in my hand when presented to him in his cage & all sorts of other cute things. He is the...
