    Pugsy, Ginger, and Goldie Girl.. Rest in Peace Angel Babies

    The last few weeks have been very sad in my house and it seems as if the Bridge Keeper has been taken up residence in my home. 2 weeks ago, I lost my 13 year old doxie, Gingerbread, to a what we think was either a stroke or heart attack. One week to the day she passed, I lost her father, 17...

    Sabin

    I don't know what to say, all I feel is guilt about what happened. Had I been able to see in the future, I would never have left the house today. Instead I would have remained home and spent the day with you, and maybe this would not have happened. I was entrusted to your care, and I failed at...

    Difference in Temps

    I have 4 chins and up until today, I have been keeping them all in my bedroom, where I have a window unit that keeps my room around 68 degrees and nice and cool for them. I had to move them in there in July, when our central AC went out and before we got a new unit installed. I say, up until...

    While doing the hay bins tonight, I noticed these tiny brown beetle looking bugs in the hay, does anyone know what they might be? And when I say tiny I mean tiny like the size of a flea but they didn't look like fleas..

    Coastal Hay

    Does anyone know if this safe to feed to chins and guinea pigs? I found a feed store near me who can get bales of alfalfa and coastal hay for 5.50 and was wondering if anyone feeds this to their chins or knows if they can even have it?

    Sabin's New Digs

    We set Sabin, our balance challenged chin, into a longer cage today. he can only be in a single level cage but with low shelves added to it and a hammock and tube, he is just as happy as our other 3. :) http://i640.photobucket.com/albums/uu121/bostongirl75/IMAG0187.jpg...

    Ive seen it all now

    Okay, so I have 4 chinchillas and up until today I thought I had seen it all..but boy howdy, was I ever mistaken! Today, after an exceptionally painful dental appointment, I walked into the chin room to say hi to all of my babies and to snuggle and commiserate with my malo chin, Herby. As I...

    chicken pox and shingles

    Does anyone know if you can get shingles more than once? I may have been exposed to the chicken pox virus while babysitting a friends son and I have had them before so that is not a problem, but I was exposed a few years ago too and ended up with shingles from the exposure. I had been sick with...

    Random Chin Thought for the Day

    Okay, so I was on my way home from dropping my son off at school, and I was sitting at a red light behind a logging truck. And what do you think was the first thought that popped into my head? Whether or not the logs were secured to the truck enough? Nope! The first thought that popped into my...

    16 years today!

    16 years today I married the man of my dreams, my confidante and my best friend, Shawn! I was a senior in high school and had just turned 19 when I asked my best friend to get me a date for prom, so I would not have to go alone. She told me that her boyfriend was out in the parking lot with 2...

    I am an avid watcher of Animal Planet and the Animal Cops series, especially AC Houston. I was watching an episode the other day, that I had not seen and one of the rescues they got in was a Stallion whose teeth were all overgrown and had to be floated. The doctor said that its teeth got like...

I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem? And does anyone know where I can get a water bottle that has a lever...
