My chin Boromir has been driving me absolutely crazy at night. Recently, he began chewing on the bars of his cage non stop. It's a terrible habit and I have no idea why he has begun to do this. Before I go to sleep, I make sure he has plenty of toys to chew on, Timothy hay and pellets. I am...

He had himself a great little chinny birthday yesterday... I didn't take pictures, but my brother and I replaced his plastic shelves with wooden ones, and he got a new food dish. Plus the thousands of things from ChinChic and AZchins he got at the beginning of the week. We used a little...

My chinny Boromir loves to be at the very top of the cage, smushed into the corner against the bars. Recently he has been basically holding one of the bars in his mouth while he does this. I was wondering if this was a sign of something wrong with his teeth? I'm just not sure why he does it. I...

Just want to thank AZ Chins and the Chin Chic store for Boromir's bday presents. They arrived today! I got the cuddle buddy from ChinChic and the rest of the stuff from AZ Chins. They're really great products and I highly recommend them! :) Couldn't be happier! Of course the little one got a...

This is what I mean :)

I am considering getting my chinchilla Boromir a fleece cuddle buddy, house, and/or hammock for his cage. Any suggestions of where I should buy these things, or what kind I should get? My chin is quite the nibbler so I'm concerned none will last long. I want to at least get him a buddy since he...

I can't believe it...I've had him since October. My father passed away in September and I got him as a way to cope with my grief. Now he's one of the greatest joys in my life. So precious! The first few pictures are him in the store as I was about to buy him, and they get more recent. I can't...

When I was playing with my chinchilla Boromir recently, he started chewing on my hair tie that I had on my wrist. I thought it was funny so I took it off and I would hold one end while he chewed and tugged on the tie. He never shredded any of the string off and it didn't snap, but he seemed to...

My chinchilla plays in his little fenced area for 1 hour, 3-4 times per day. Sometimes when I put him back in his cage, he smushes himself against the top corner of his cage. He's in the picture I have attached. I'm trying to figure out what this behavior means! Most of the time, I give him some...

I'm wondering what Petsmart treats and toys are best for chinchillas. My chinchilla Boromir loves rice pops but I've been giving him small pieces of a rice pop once a day. He absolutely loves them but I'm concerned because of all the starch. Any suggestions?

Hi My name is Casey, I'm 20 and I got a chinchilla in October. His name is Boromir Alexander (Boromir from LOTR, Alexander as in Alex Ovechkin of the Washington Capitals). I bought him from Petsmart (I know, bad!) and at first I didn't know much about him or what to do with him...but now he...
