    Buttons (Ebony, Male, 2 years)

    Buttons is a fun loving little dude. He can't sleep without the radio on. Unfortunately, he was diagnosed with a serious illness earlier tis year. The situation is being carefully monitored by myself and my vet. I don't know how much time I have left with him, but I intend to make his life as...

    Chinchilla Sneezed His Head Off For An Hour

    He hasn't done it since, so I hope we're in the clear!

    Common Chin Allergies

    Does anybody else have chins with allergies and if so, do you know what they are allergic to? My chin is having allergies, but I can't quite pin down what could be causing it.

    Chinchilla Sneezed His Head Off For An Hour

    I am watching him like a hawk. If he starts up again (which seems unlikely) he will be going straight to the vet. Thank you.

    Chinchilla Sneezed His Head Off For An Hour

    Last night, my chin could not stop sneezing for close to an hour. He would sneeze several times in one minute and he has never done this before. He had a dust bath a few hours before and there was some dust still on the fleece which he kept revisiting and rubbing his face in. I didn't know what...

    Oh good. Thanks again!

    Opinions on Dumor?

    My mom brought home a bag of Dumor timothy hay balls. It's not something I probably would have tried, but since I have it, I wanted to ask before I just give it to my chin. Any thoughts?

    Detergent For Chin Fleece

    I have been looking for that brand of Tide, but none of my stores seem to have it. Must order it somewhere. I will definitely be doing the extra rinse regardless. Thanks!

    Detergent For Chin Fleece

    I have a bit of a problem right now. My chin has a weepy eye and gets drops as needed (he was at the vet last week and his mouth is fine). He obviously hates the drops, so after he gets them, he will rub his face on the fleece I have for him. I can't help but wonder if the detergent I'm using...

    Less Feces

    Just when you think you've got em' figured out, they throw you a curve ball! He seems to be doing a lot better. Good thinking about the water bottle. I haven't noticed any issues with it, but I'll keep it in mind for future reference.

    Less Feces

    Good advice!

    Less Feces

    He's actually doing better, but to be safe I'm going to get some alfalfa to coax him into eating more hay.

    CBD candle around chin?

    I'm not very educated in regards to cannabis usage, but I would air on the side of caution and not light the candle in the same room as your chinchilla.

    Less Feces

    This is probably going to be a question with no answer, but I noticed that my chin is produced less feces then usual last night. The thing of it is, everything else is entirely normal. The feces are a proper size, color and texture. My chin is still eating, sleeping and playing normally. He...

    How to give chinchillas eye drops?

    Oh yeah. My chin is always getting his eyes gunked up and I have to apply eye drops a lot. He acts like a mad man, so I have to hold his head still while my mother applies the drops. Unfortunately, you have to use a tiny bit of force to keep the chin in place which can be tricky. You have to be...

    Chins and Day Light's Saving Time

    C Chins are weird indeed! :D He seems to be acting fine now. No clue what his issue was.

    Soft Baby Chin Stool

    Buttons doesn't really bother with the ropes actually. He just chews up the wood and likes to sit on it and under it. I may consider pulling the rope out though just in case. *sigh* I really wish I could get things right.

    Chins and Day Light's Saving Time

    My 1 year old male chin has a sudden change in behavior and it seems to be ever since the clocks were changed. He seems a lot more fearful and he is hiding a lot more. Everything else is normal however. He just seems extra skittish. I was wondering if the change in time could be confusing him...

    Soft Baby Chin Stool

    Sorry, I just saw your question today. I call it a jungle gym, but the official name is play table. My chin loves it so much, that he has gone through a few already. Oxbow makes them. You can look at one here: OXBOW Play Table Small Animal Toy - Chewy.com

    Tall Vs. Wide Cage

    That's funny that you saw the same post! I guess the chin world is a small circle. I totally agree. Having a bird's eye view has and is still very important to my chins. I have dachshunds in the house and when one of them would walk into the room, Perkins would stand on his perch and look down...
