I was surprised today to see a jar of Blue Cloud Dust at Petsmart! It was distributed by Lixit. It was 3lbs for 10 dollars. It had a sign that said "new at petsmart"." I screwed off the lid and it wasn't sealed...booooo. It felt a little rough but that may have been settling. Is this the...

Good price today! http://www.amazon.com/Midwest-142-Ferret-Nation-Cage/dp/B000F4OX0E/ref=wl_it_dp_o?ie=UTF8&coliid=IS1LW5IVDC77U&colid=R91K2GWQFEXM

Found a cute surprise a Target today.....a puzzle with a chinchilla on it! It is part of a 4 puzzle pack (500 pieces each). The chin is a large portion of one of the puzzles (although an odd situation of pets by pond?). It was 10 bucks. Check it out...

Hey guys. I found a local pet store that will donate some supplies for the Arlington chins but they need a letter or form or something of record from the rescue so they can deduct it from taxes. NOLA chin rescue is not "officially" non-profit. So if one of you rescues out there is and I could...

I was thinking of making fleece liners but was wondering if making them without towels was absorbent enough if I change them often (every other day). How many layers and of what does everyone make theirs? I have towels in the ones I have now but they shrink up a lot. I wash them in cold with...

My vet prescribed Doxycycline (vibramycin) for a upper respiratory infection. Has anyone had success with this? He is out of town in a seminar until Monday and I can't ask him why he called in doxy and not Baytril. He knows I don't prefer Baytril but I know it is good for URIs. I had my chins...

I was wondering.... On the bag of oxbow pellets there is an expiration date, but not a mill date. How long before the expiration date is the mill date for this food? 6 months?

I loaded up a bunch of pics of my chins, other pets, and other cool pics. I have three albums up. Check out my profile it you wish. Who can resist these faces?:

Pepper had small poos last night, but kind of soft. Tonight she had larger ones, still soft, but I saw her strain to do them. I know she needs to go to the vet....I am taking her. Is this likely statis? There are enough of them, but I am worried about a prolapse possibility. They aren't HUGE...

My vet said to give her 1 c.c. if Matecam (.5mg/mL suspension) and I gave it to her. Then someone said their dosage is .1cc! Is this an Overdose! Help!

My local stores hold onto hay until it is brown. I have been buying Oxbow hay (finding bags that were suitably green), but it seems my babies are losing interest in it. Bunny picks through it and knocks it out of the bowl. Pepper likes pellets (Oxbow) more to begin with but has had even less...

I noticed a little fur missing on the tip of Bunnies nose....and thought maybe Pepper had chewed her because she is a few chewer. I said something about her nose being a little red while we were at the vet for Pepper the other day....and the vet didn't look at her at all. It stopped being red...

Hi. My boyfriend/fiancee and I recently got two chins and have posted about a health concern about Pepper under emergencies. I am looking for a "chin pal" in the Dallas/Fort Worth (Lewisville in particular) area.....maybe someone with several chins and experience.....someone I can call about...

I live in North Dallas. I have a vet that is not bad, but I want to know if any one out there knows of a particularly good chin vet in the area ....PLEASE let me know

Hi. I am new here. I have been reading this forum since I got two Chinchillas 3 weeks ago. I have been following advice from experienced members after researching almost every topic I can think of. My girls, Bunny (beige) and Pepper (gray) are about months old. They are on Oxbow food and Oxbow...
