Thanks Everyone!!!! :-) we are lucky to have such a sweet baby

Just wanted to show off some pictures! After getting GI stasis last year we were worried we would lose our baby. After constant care she is back to being her bratty, fuzzy self! Here are some pics of "The Fuzz" relaxing and having fun! ;)

Thanks Tunes, I have read that post before and am trying the same methods. Lola hates the rice sock and doesnt like me touching her stomach so I am doing my best to get massages in. Dragon, He checked out her teeth last night. She has been chewing sticks as usual. She let out three decent...

she is def not pregnant. Last night she was producing regular and frequent BM. Since last night her stool has gotten smaller round and hard. She is still eating without prompt and allows me to feed her with a dropper. The doctor just did a lot of standard tests. He said he felt destention in her...

HI Horrible night here in Ohio. Around 9 oclock tonight (last night if you want to get technical) My fuzzy came in from her daily romp around the house. She went in her cage and I immediately knew something was wrong. She was hunched over and not looking well. I kept a constant eye on her. When...

Hi, I was wondering if anyone had a way to search for vets. I live in NE Ohio and need to find one. I appreciate all the help I can get.

I wanted to know if anyone has suggestions as to which vacuum cleaner is the best for chin poop. I have went through 3 nice vacuums in the past 2 years thanks to my fuzzy. :thumbsup: Thanks in advance everyone

Hi all, I had a question about spraying. :wacko: My chin Lola is a very sweet chinchilla. However she feels like she needs to show dominance over my fiance Chris. He has never grabbed at her or frightened her in any way. As soon as he comes over she repeatedly poops on him. Literally scooting...

I have been watching movies on popcorning chins, I think that might be the solution for what she does when she gets out of the cage! Some of the chinchillas actually shake their heads before they run around? Im hoping that this might solve that problem. I know she deffinatly isnt seizing hard...

I am positive it has nothing to do with the teeth she only does it a second before she stretches her body... ugh i dunno

right... I dont know if it is truly every day, but I see her about 4 times a week. It always seems like its triggered by my arrival. She seems frightened of me then relizes its me then is fine.

It feels like every other entry on here is one in which my beloved fuzzy daughter is in some way shape or form ill. For the past 3 weeks it seems like a few times a week Lola has an odd twich and shake of the head, let me explain: It started with a minor twich. The movement is like if you were...

:dance2: WAHOO! This is great news :-) *hugs*

Well Its sunday, she still has squishy poo, does anyone know how long it takes to get her tummy back on track?

Yes I'm sorry tunes. I thought since it was about a month ago it wouldnt really matter. Yes 1/2 a gram on a rasin a day. Shes not a fan, (she threw the rasin at me and made for some great comic releif) the probiotic is oxbow papaya brand, luckily she didn't even need any treats with, she seemed...

I think you might be right because she got a test done and two medicines and it was a total of 100. That's a pretty good deal! :-)

Hi everyone! Just wanted to give you all an update. So far so good on the homefront! We went and saw dr. Riggs today. We found out he has a lot of experience with chins, he's been in the vet field for 30 years and knows a lot about chinnies. We got right in. He tested for giardia, he said...

Arg seriously? I don't have much of a choice. Hes the only dr. that takes chins. But I really am having trouble shelling out the money needed for this visit. I'm right in the limbo of finishing college and trying to get a job in my field. It's tough, but she makes me happy. He better be a good...

Thanks for the response guys, Lola is on oxbow, unlimited. She roughly eats 1/8th of her bowl of food a day. She also gets a unlimited timothy hay. I've recently switched hay. I have pulled raisins from her diet and am now giving her one small square of shredded wheat everyday. I saw her eat...

Thanks everyone, she has an appointment tomorrow. As soon as I noticed the smell I knew to start worring. I had her out a lot yesterday she pooped more than she has been, yet it was still smelly and squishy. Its my first time going to the chin vet (let alone any vet). I already have a...
