    Chew rate increasing? How much wood do I supply?

    So since I've had Ganache, just about two months now, he hasn't been huge on chewing. He eats his hay and everything, but for a while we only had willow chew toys since that's all they stock at our local pet place (petsmart Canada had just about zero chinchilla toys). So when I finally got some...

    The rules for petsitting...

    So my husband and I are headed home for two weeks at Christmas, which means the first time that I will be away from Ganache and I'm getting worried about how he's going to do. I know there's a couple other petsitting threads but I had still have some questions... 1) Is it okay for Ganache to be...

    The quest for a cuddle buddy..

    So I've been trying to get a cuddle buddy for my little guy, since his cage is lacking much other than the bare minimum. I lack any possible sewing ability so I went ahead and bought one online. It did not tell me that there was a bell sewn inside of this one! It's pretty small too, maybe only...

    Pictures! What is his color and is that a freckle?

    Officially introducing Ganache! He's at just over three months :) Questions: what do I call his color? Tan, dark tan, chocolate? Is there a difference? Also, are the spots on his ears the beginning of freckles? the big one in the last picture appeared at about ten weeks and now a smaller one...

    Stop peeing on the pellets!

    So fourth morning in a row now I've come out to find Ganache has peed in his food bowl, wasting about half of his night's worth of pellets. And he really likes eating pellets! I don't understand what the deal is and I'm worried he isn't getting enough food if half of it is wasted in the night...

    Smaller wheel with younger chin?

    So my Dad just brought me a present for my little chin Ganache. I had mentioned wanting a wheel when I get his new cage in a few months but he got ahead of me and bought one already. It's plastic, so it won't go in his cage, but it's pretty sturdy and 13 inches. Question is, should I have it...

    Talking in Chin Language?

    So my little baby chin loves to squeak / "woot" as I call it when he's curious, wanting attention, whatever. After a couple weeks of trying to imitate this noise, I've found a little squeak that I can make which he makes him start wooting and squeaking back like crazy! also when he grinds his...

    Loofa chews and Dye in toys?

    So I'm trying to find my little guy a variety of chewing things.. we haven't found anything that he really LOVES yet.. I keep seeing these Loofa chews, of all different sorts, and I don't know what they're made of or if they're safe. Are they considered treats? Also they have things called "rice...

    Cuddle Buddy?

    So after reading some of the posts on here about young male chins' sexual behavior I am wondering how to get a cuddle buddy for my little guy. He's young right now but I'd rather not be scrambling in a few months to find/make one of these things and have him humping me constantly. So are there...

    Eating too much?

    Hi there, I just got my baby chin a few weeks ago. He's only about two months so he's very young and growing really fast. I feed him a good dose of hay every night which he loves, and I've been keeping him with unlimited pellets because I was told they wouldn't over eat. In the last week he's...
