Hello I had a question about my 11 year old chinchilla Chinta. She is housed with another chin who's only 8 months old and they get along pretty well. . Sometimes they argue about food but that's it.
Now on Chinta's tail on the top, the fur is missing in a strip.
the skin doesn't look to be...
Hello I don't know if this would be consider an emergency or not but I'm not completely sure what I should do.

I do and I will take that as advice if I decide to breed at a later time .. but sadly my Little loki just passed away today. I was at when work my sister called and told me she wasn't acting right and within the hour she passed. I buried her next to my other chin i just lost a few months ago...

Hello again I know i've posted before about my kit but I was just curious if a kit is born by itself and is only 38grams but keeps at a constant 36grams could she just be slow at growing or even a little premature though she was born fully furred eyes open? she's a happy little thing, tail up...
I Think I'd be lost without my sister. .with my job keeping me away most of the day and the other issues with taking such a young kit to work I was worried what I would do, Now i just hope everything works out for this little kit of mine.
I've been reading that and just need to buy the supplies tonight or after work. . my sister already said while i'm at work she'll feed the kit or i'd be lost what to do. . thank you also I have seperated them and untill I get Nuka neutered will not put them back together.

Thank you. I do beileve I shall invest in some. I really should have been more prepared in case of emergencies, I will not make the same mistake twice. . I know some things cant be helped but still. =/
Sadly my little boy didn't make it to the vets, he passed away before I could get him there.
I don't have critical care on hand.. what does that consist of so I can maybe prepare it for preperation for my other two chins I don't want something like this to happen again.
Hello. I know this is not the vets and I will be taking my little neko to one as soon as I can but I'd like at least some ideas at what could be wrong with my chinchilla. or to help till i get him to one.
