A friend of mine posted this on Facebook earlier today:
"Anybody know the effects of forest fire smoke on chinchillas? I am freaking out. We are getting tons of smoke from a big Arizona fire and on the news they said to turn off your air and shut your windows. Right........ It is to hot to turn it off so all night my babies are sucking down smoke. It was so bad I had an asthma attack last night. It is bad today also. I don't know what to do..........."
I suggested keeping windows closed, plugging any drafty spots, turning thermostat up a bit so the a/c is not having to be on as often, and giving the chins fleece-wrapped frozen water bottles. Anybody got any other ideas??
Thank you!
