I came home and her eye was much better :) still swollen but its almost back to normal. I definitely should've waited longer before jumping to conclusions! I just figured that since it takes us seconds to clear our eyes out when we get dust in our eyes.. that a chin's eye shouldn't take so...

Last night when I came home from work, my chin Sugar's right eye was swollen and the fur underneath was a little messed up, as if it were wet. However I felt the fur and it wasn't wet anymore. The eye was swollen to about half the size of the normal eye, and there was no puss. Today the eye...

LOL!! How in the world do you cut it with dental floss?!

How do you guys cut PVC tubes down to the proper size? I bought the tube at Home Depot, but they said they "didn't have the right equipment" to cut it for me, but that I could use a simple hacksaw. I then took it to Lowe's, and they basically told me the same thing. I used a small electric...

I have an update. I was thinking of the wrong cousin, her name is Helen not Sandi. She woke up a couple days ago, and she can speak now but she has trouble breathing on her own. She is in the psych ward now, and her mom can only see her once a day, which is weird and scary. But we are glad...

bahahaha cute! I have an "extreme mosaic" too =)

I went! I camped out at Best Buy from 11 pm Thursday night to 5 am when they opened the doors. Got a Samsung 32" LCD tv that's originally "$450 for $328. Yay!

I flip her on her back and hold her against my legs with one hand.. then I try to lay my fingers over the top of her toes if I can to hold her feet still. I use the other hand to apply the bag balm. Here is a video, she's squirmier than usual but you get the idea. There you go, thats...

I just got sprayed for the first time a couple days ago too. It grazed my cheek and hit my ear and hair. I swear I saw that pee flying at me in slow motion.. before landing on my head. Gross. A couple more inches over and it woulda hit my mouth. Thank goodness that hasn't happened yet!

I'm definately not an expert, but I had almost the exact situation as you. After reading the thread on chin pain, I noticed Poopy flicking her ears periodically when she eats. This behavior continued throughout the week I was monitoring her. I bought a scale during that week and noticed her...

I'm not sure if this is an appropriate topic, since this is a family friendly forum, so if not can a mod please delete? My boyfriend just informed me that his cousin Sandi tried to commit suicide. She took 15 vicodin and 15 muscle relaxers, and her mom found her this morning. I don't know the...

That third picture was so precious!

Her ears sit in a regular perked position.. but when she starts eating she flicks both ears downwards every 10-15 seconds. I've only seen her do this when she eats pellets though. I'm not sure if she does it when she eats hay

Oh. Maybe I'm overreacting then lol. She still eats, poops, and chews like crazy. No pawing or drooling. She seems normal in every way, except for the ear flicking. What are some possibilities that ear flicking indicates?

I've noticed that Poopy flicks her ears downwards when she eats. She does it periodically, maybe every 10-15 seconds or so. I read that this is a sign of pain and that she could have mouth or teeth issues, so I've made a vet appointment for tomorrow morning. This will be our first visit to...

Aww!! Looks like he's found his favorite "hammock" =)

Aww!! Handbag is so loving and outgoing. I'm so jealous. You two look like you've been bonded forever, it's hard to believe you've only had him for a couple months! Where did you get that name plaque btw? Its adorableeee

1:59 first try! Thanks, now I'm going to be up all night trying to beat my best scores over.. and over.. and over..

My house is being fumigated for termites tomarrow (Tuesday) morning. We'll be able to move back in by Thursday afternoon. While we're away, I'm going to move my chins to my boyfriend's house. I'll be taking all their food, hay, wood, etc as well. Will it be okay for them to move back in when...

Will there be anything to catch them, like a hammock or something, in case they slip and fall from the top of the enclosure? Typically owners who have tall cages design them so that if there are any mishaps, the chin only falls down a short section of the cage, rather than all the way to the...
