Hi everyone,
My chin is usually very active and lively but I noticed just recently that he's been mostly silent all day. He's spent a lot of time on his chinchiller, but the temperature in the room is normal... He looks very alert with wide eyes, even when he appears to be relaxed. When I went to comfort him, he made a sound that was similar to barking or choking more than once. He wouldn't even come down to take a dust bath, his wheel has been mostly ignored all day... Water level is a little less than usual. He only ate treats after I laid them gently by his resting area. He won't let me pet him, feel his tummy, etc.

Please help with any advice. I'm very worried about my baby. :(
 
I would take him to a vet it sounds like your chinny could be bloated which could potentially harm them or there could be a blockage.... Has he been pooping/peeing alright?
