    New Chinparent Here!

    Raisins shouldn't be given at all. Her body can't process them... Rosehips are a good alternative as well as other treats. I'm sure you could find a list on here. Welcome & Congrats on your baby!

    New kit & owner. (lots of info)

    HI! 1. I honestly don't think it's necessary to have a "foster dad". It will take a long time to bond them and unless you plan on keeping them and buy another cage to quarantine and introduce them, the foster dad isn't needed. Not to mention, they might never get along meaning you have 2...

    I have never had a problem with my 2 males fighting when our two girls go into heat & their cages are next to each other.

    New Chin owner in Washington.

    Welcome! As stated above, please be careful. Honestly, if they were my chins, they wouldn't be allowed around the cat. Chinchilla's are prey while cats are predators. The Chinchilla's could possibly be scared of the cat and believe it's trying to attack them.

    wont let me pick him up :(

    I agree with everyone else. One of my chins doesn't like being picked up at all, she's super skiddish. He might not like being picked up ever, you have to remember, chins are cute and all but they aren't exactly cuddly babies. As for getting him back into his cage after playtime, we use the...

    Nice to meet you all!

    Hi! Welcome!! I understand why you are questioning the raisin/fruit stuff. The link above is a great source. My boyfriend had a chin that we fed raisins too but once I joined this forum I stopped giving them to her. It's sugar and chins shouldn't have that. Chins can become bloated from items...

    Keeping a Chinchilla cool?

    Most people recommend Window units when it comes to helping keep the room cool. Another thing i'm worried about... You're chinchilla shouldn't be in the same room as a rabbit. Rabbits have many diseases that kill chinchilla's. I have read many times about the fact that they should be in a...

    New chin owner

    Welcome! Congrats on the new babies! They might never like being held, it depends. We have one who is totally fine with it and three others that don't like being held. Usually they just like to be scratched (Behind the ears, on the belly, etc.) Check out some items on the forum, you'll learn a...

    Safe Toys?

    I wouldn't, mainly because I don't know how they're made and just as Dawn said, those statements scream scam. You're better off buying toys on here from places in the Classified section. I'm pleased with all the items i buy from there. I'm about to order for a 3rd time from TaylorMadeChinchilla's.

    Oxbow or Mazuri?

    I agree with what was said above. We use Mazuri but could use either because we could get either if we wanted too. You should give unlimited hay and pellets for your chins :)
