I would say, as long as it has lots of stuff to do in its cage, and some form of human interaction daily, be if it's your siblings, parent, or yourself, I would think it would be just fine. If I were you, I'd get two of the same gender so they can keep each other company while not having to...

I would love if this was successful! I would like to get one of mine neutered, but it's so risky!

My old chinchilla Mr. Mumbles did this too! I always just shooed him off lol, he quit after awhile!

This happened to my Pippin when he was just 8 weeks old! Scared me to death, but I just kept everything as clean as I could. I thought his finger was broken; it was bad. But it's all healed up now and the only way you can tell it happened is he doesn't have a fingernail there. I hope your...

I wouldn't think that would make him small, although I have heard not to let baby chins play too long (I'm not sure it's true though). I think it's probably genetic, I mean, humans come in all shapes and sizes, why don't chinchillas? I wouldn't worry about it, if he eats, sleeps, poops, plays...

Okay. He's been on antibiotics for a week now because the vet thought he had a uri, so it just doesn't make sense. I'll try and get him an appointment soon! Thank you for your help!!

I was holding him again, feeling around and I have discovered a slightly smaller lump of the opposite side... Is it swollen lymph nodes? What does this mean?

Oh, okay. Thank you! I am going to try and get him an appointment soon, it's just so frustrating because I've already invested $164 in him for vet visits. :(

Also, the tumor moves around, so could it be a fatty tumor that is seen in cats and dogs?

So my dear little Ash, who has been through so, so much, has a tumor near his arm. Is he going to die? He was getting so much better; he made it to 3 weeks old! I discovered it this morning, it's about the size of a pea. I'm really upset. He's been through so much and if it's cancer I don't have...

Alright!! Thank you both! :)

So I've fallen in love with my little Ash (a kit from my Blossom's litter that I thought was going to die) and so has my mom. If I kept him, that would mean that I have two males, and two females. I would have a stacked/divided cage, and probably separate the males and the females. But would the...

I am so so so so sorry!!! This must be so hard for you! :'( I am praying you will find peace in this... You were just trying to do what was best, it's not your fault! RIP little Turbo!

Alright! Thank you both! I will definitely check those out! :)

So I'm looking for a cage that's not too wide, but is divided/stacked. I have a cage that can do this (not very well, but it can) and it's way too wide. It takes up so much floor space! I'm trying to keep my older chinchilla Pikachu separated from my male, but I don't want two cages taking up...
