I recently acquired a 6 week old albino female hhog named Dizzy, and have had my female Izzie for over 4 years. Izzie is a grump (I suspect she was not held regularly before I got her) but she warms up to me on some days with the right ritual. I wonder if it would ever be possible and safe to...

Pappy has developed 2 patches (that I can tell so far, she hates being held and inspected). The larger of the 2 is on her back left leg. It's pink on top and no fur on the foot at all. It appears smooth. Her toes also look a bit pink, as well. It must have cropped up in a day or 2, as we've been...

Hi guys :) I've had Minuit for a while (female, 2.5 years old) and I recently adopted Paprika (calling her Pappy, female, 5 years old) from a rescue. At first it seemed like they didn't mind each other, but during intros and neutral play times, they started to spar. Minuit, the one I've had...

I'm worried that I've gone and done a dumb thing, I put the extra cooling plate I have for Minuit in the freezer. Luckily, the AC has worked, until today..... The thing is very cold, but there is a layer of ice on it. If I offer it to Minuit, could she get wet? Sorry if this is a stupid...

Hello friends, I recently acquired an older Double Ferret nation (142, I think) from craigslist. It was used for ferrets and I had to really wash the thing. Anyhoodles, I have some questions about being able to use it for my Chin. We've thoroughly washed and towel dried all the pieces, but...

In her previous/temp cage, I've put fleece down on the bottom to prevent her from stepping on wire, but the fleece I have currently doens't cover the whole thing. So I put newspaper under the fleece, to cover the part that is exposed. ......She has spent all day shredding the news paper (making...

Minuit is 2 years old and has been with me for almost 3 weeks now. She gets play time each night twice... once for about an hour in the early evening when she first starts to get up, and a second run much later (like midnight, I'm a night owl). She loves to run, wall surf, play on stairs...

Does anyone have Care Credit, and do their exotic vets take it? My vet (Ness Exotics, Lisle, Il) take it, and I have 18 months interest free! We have used it for dwarf hamster tumor removals and such. But I'm wondering... does anyone have anything interesting to share about Care Credit that I...

Izzie is 3 years old, and has never eating a fresh piece veggie or fruit. She also rejects hard boiled eggs, and any other treat or food that is not an insect or cat food. I had to buy her cat food high in fiber to ensure she was getting enough fiber. Will she be okay? Is she missing anything...

Meet Minuit :) Now, previous owners said she was Ebony, which seems legit, but I'd like to show her off just to be sure :) [/URL][/IMG] [/URL][/IMG] [/URL][/IMG]

Once we move into our apartment, my fiance and I want to upgrade Minuit's cage from her Ware 4 level cage that has plastic. We have our eye on the Double Ferret Nation. Is this a good cage? Should we do the Ferret nation as opposed to Critter Nation (what my Hedgehog lives in.) I bought a hay...

Hello friends, my name is Clare aka tinypixie and I am a brand new Chin owner and a seasoned hhog owner. I come here for care questions for my ebony female chinchilla, Minuit (French for Midnight), as we got her short notice. I currently own 4 dwarf hamsters, 1 female af. pygmy hhog, Algerian...
