Hi all, I really need some advice. Please no judgment. My chinchilla hadn't been eating and drooling for three days so I took him to get dental work. They fed him CC there and he came home. He's been home with me for another 5 days and still isn't eating. He's so fussy that I haven't been able...

Hello all, Me, being an overly protective mother, am very concerned for my chin. Lately, he has been acting very skittish and at sometimes he seems too lazy to even come out. He has also started to eat more, as he wasn't eating as much beforehand. He is skittish in the sense that it only...

Hello everybody, we got an eye issue. I just noticed today my boy has some white liquidy discharge around one of his eyes, but it clears away easily. His eye just seems to be wet since the fur around it is wet and it's a tiny bit crusty but nothing too alarming. The good news is he's acting...

Right now my little boy has literally been screaming for attention for an hour. Every time I leave him alone he barks at me almost frantically. When I go over to him he's perfectly fine. He's never done this before! He just sits in a corner and barks at me until I go over. Any suggestions as...

This is a little long but I just really wanted to share! I'm 15 right now and I got my baby in December. I first wanted a chinchilla as soon as I saw a picture. I honestly had no idea what they were but they were adorable! I saw the first picture from my science teacher. She has one named...

I have so many questions, and I just want your opinions on it. Patch is my first chin I've had for a couple months and I'm very happy with him. C: 1. Whenever I let my little boy out for playtime he ends up squeaking at some point. Usually I will have to get out of his playpen to check the time...

Ah! That's my problem! He'll hide under my bed and I have to lure him out with his dustbath. I'm just afraid of him chewing any wires behind my bed, so I'm going to block off my bed and anything he can get under. It's much easier that way! And hah, cute and cuddly is what you think they are till...

Aw! C: He sounds adorable! He knows my voice already, he responds to it well whenever I talk to him. But they really are rambunctious! Little children they are. Thanks for your help! He won't get away with escaping next time, haha!

Hi! I've had my chin, Patch, for a while now. For about a month. He seems pretty settled in- But he's just a pain in the butt sometimes C: Whenever I come to the cage, he's assuming he's going to be let out. So if I try taking something out or putting something inside of the cage, he'll jump...

Thanks! ^^ I still wonder why exactly he's nibbling though. I gave him a treat earlier, maybe that's why. Also I'm getting a bit paranoid since I have kaytee pellets for him, any people are saying that it's pretty bad. I just got him, so I'm worried that a change will be too much for him. Plus...

Hi, I just got my chinchilla on wednesday and it's now friday night. He seems to be getting used to me. The only thing I've been feeling strange about is his nibbling. They're not enough to pierce my skin or enough to hurt, but theyre not that light nibbling I've experienced with another...

Hi, I just got my chinchilla yesterday! His name's Patch. Yesterday when I got him he was skittish, running around and exploring his new home. He was active at night and most of that day when I brought him home around 3pm. Today's our second day. He was up in the morning with me and awake, but...
