Thank you! I never saw it on any of the "Not safe wood" lists so I thought I'd ask. It should be added!

I looked everywhere and can't find if catalpa (sometimes called Catawba) wood is safe. Anyone know? Thanks! :)

So a while back I tried introducing my chins and wasn't very successful. Since then, I had kind of given up.. I'd put them in the bathroom together and watch for how they reacted towards each other. I picked a neutral ground, but they weren't very nice. I don't know if I'm just overreacting or...

It's funny, I never realized how much more fun Charlee would have if I added a few things to jump on, crawl under, tunnel through, or jump over to her play time. But right now I'm watching her run around like a crazy woman just having a blast! She keeps wanting to jump out of her playpen though...

Thanks! I'll try that!(:

This is really gross, but almost everyday my chins pee in their food bowl :vomit: and I have to give them new food. Has anybody's ever done this before? And how do I stop it!? Thanks!

Okay, thank's everybody! The hair will grow back, right?

It's not really dry, just the hair's gone..

A month or so ago I noticed some hair loss on my baby's tail, and all of a sudden it has gonna worse!? Anybody know why this is happening? Thanks!

"I have raised Chinchillas for 20 yrs." Black chinchilla? Cream chinchilla? Leash?? Ya, not dying to buy a chin from this "breeder" any time soon......

So whenever I have Charlee out for playtime she always makes this weird sound and I don't quite know what it is... I can't tell if its coming from her mouth or nose.. If it's coming from her mouth it sounds like a crunch of a seed or nut or something. But she's not eating anything.. and I don't...

Sounds to me like she needed a babysitter for her chin while she moved... I'm sorry that happened to you! And like Caiti, I don't know what I would have done.. that would be really hard. I've only had one of my chinchillas for a month now and I know I wouldn't be able to give her back now. I've...

I adopted one who's 7 and I think she adapted better than my 1 1/2 year old. I really think it just depends on the chin and it's surroundings and background(:

Oh my gosh! The poor thing looked miserable!! :( I feel so bad for it and wish we could do something about it! You could just see in its eyes it was crying for help!

Okay, I definitely won't.
