Hi everyone It’s been a long an emotional week!! My chin has been diagnosed with open Pyometra! She’s almost 10 years old and I’m very worried about her getting spayed. She currently is not a good candidate for surgery because she lost weight due to not feeling well. I have been instructed to...

She just wasn't having it at all. She'd take the medicine more than the cc. She hasn't been eating her pellets but she'll occasionally eat some hay. I've found a better way to bundle her and have been able to feed her more. I'll definitely try the canned pumpkin tho. Anything to make the...

Hey y'all My chinchilla Chip broke her front leg on Monday. Took her to the vet and got her splinted since it was a clean break. Got her home Wednesday night along with meds and critical care assist feed. Wednesday night she took the CC incredibly well, she's had it before and knows the...

These posts are hilarious!! I'm reading them to my sister and cracking up I have 2 stories that are pretty funny My first chin Pip was bouncing around her change and she tripped on one of her wood stick chews and I could have sworn she was so embarrassed that she slyly reached for the stick and...

Pictures of my 3 Chins Pip (had to put down :/) Chip (my evil genius girl) Aurora (my princess)

I totally lucked out potty training my girl Chip! I put a bowl in her cage for hay, then all of a sudden she was using it to pee in instead. Makes my life a lot easier and I didn't even have to try :D

Hi All! So my dad bought me a feisty ferret for my first chin before I could really request anything cause that's just how he is. And now I'm too poor to afford a Ferret Nation (with no luck from craigslist either). I've been reading on this forum for like the last hour trying to figure out...

Absolutely love this picture!! Way cute!

Its the worst when you want to take pictures of the cute sleeping chins, but they always wake up... and usually aren't happy about it :D

Haha thanks for all of your replies!! Its funny when other people come in and scratch her and are all like "She's letting me scratch her!" all the while I'm thinking to myself is: she's just too scared to move. :D

Please tell me there are other chinchillas out there that don't like their chins and ears scratched!! My chinchilla Chip will start to like it, do the head tilt and all then BOOM she's like wait you're touching me... NO THANKS! It's so funny though because it's like she has some internal...
