    Travel

    If you are only going to be gone a week, it will be okay if your chin does not have out of cage time. This is especially true if the person feeding your chin is not as familiar with him/her as you are. I have gone on vacation plenty of times and left a pet sitter (vet tech) in charge of my...

    Sleep well Cream

    I’m so sorry for your loss. It’s hard to say how your other chin would have reacted. Extra attention from you may be helpful.

    Do chinchillas inow what they are capable of?

    I think chins just do what comes naturally. Also, their abilities may vary based on age, size, etc. I do believe that they have mind control powers. Their cuteness is their superpower and they know it. ;)

    How to help a chinchilla in mourning?

    I think those are the best ideas. Just keep an eye on her and see how she does for now. I have found the chinnie buddies to be useful. Most of my guys have them.

    Shedding? Fur slipping? :/

    I have two chins that are fur chewers. One of them seems to give himself a trim (i.e.- the fur is shortened and he doesn't typically have bald spots, the other chin looks like he has a ring around his head/shoulder area and the fur is totally missing. Does your chin seem fine other than the fur...

    Chin sounds like coughing

    Chins may cough and rub their noses right after a dust bath. Is it a “Sneezing/barking” kind of noise? Is there any discharge coming out of his nose or eyes?

    ears down

    I am not sure that having their ears down is necessarily indicative of illness. Mine tend to have theirs down when sleepy. I have had a few chins with dental issues and they typically paw at the mouth, have dampness under the chin (drool), or weight loss and small poos. If there is any...

    New oxbow Critical Care Formula Issues

    As with all brands of food, some chins will like it, some chins won’t. I have used Mazuri in the past with some success. Currently, I feed Purina Rabbit Chow Show, which is available in the size I need and is more economical than Oxbow and Mazuri. Whichever New food you choose, make sure to...
