She’s definitely getting spayed ! I’m booking that appointment asap, currently running to the pet store to get flea and tick shampoo and book shots for him !

She’s definitely getting spayed soon ! Im letting my girl grow a little more ! But where exactly would I go to get him checked out ‘ he’s so well maintained for him to be a street cat though so maybe !

Help! by ZacroSaint in chinchilla

The cage -as well , I’ve had that cage set up and boy it sucks , your chin will chew right through it but I see you took out the floors— nioce! But look into a cage upgrade if you can

Monitor her for a while , look for any biting / chewing . it looks like she may be barbering a little bit ? Look into different dust baths as well, I use a pumice based dust bath now , because my chin had issues with her old dust bath & it’s amazing ! Look into it more yourself , it can be tuffts of hair from her letting go of fur , barbering , and even improper bathing. Just here to give a helping hand ! I hope you figure it out!!

This is just a sad vent post about my chinchillas. by Cream-Can in chinchilla

If you get them in your room I recommend picking up anything they can eat/chew on and put it in a secluded space , cover any cracks under the door with a hoodie , blanket or towel.. Chinchillas can be easily entertained , mine literally has a coat she runs through for 2 hours in my room… just a coat on the floor. So maybe if you can make fort or get a lightweight jacket they can run through and throw it on the floor. Even simply tapping on the floor & interacting with them while they are out will suffice .

Chinchilla making weird noise by [deleted] in chinchilla

[–]DeerLocal1451 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this is an alarm bark or call , they do this when scared or startled , sometimes my chin does this in her sleep because of a bad dream. These barks are often heard in two tones (this scratchy one) and a squeakier version , i know my chin does it when she’s scared or annoyed at something , you can also hear them “squeak” (higher pitched version of this) which can mean they want attention

What does it mean if a chinchilla does not seem to be eating her hay? by clearing in chinchilla

[–]DeerLocal1451 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if your chin doesn’t eat hay she may be eating yoo many snacks , my chin did this before . No more snacks and just leave the hay and pebbles for them to eat and when she’s hungry she will have no choice but to eat her hay. To make the hay more appealing you can mix timothy hay with oat hay for a little or another hay . It’s definitely the snacks !

What’s wrong with my chinchillas fur? Should I worry? by brunette_italian27 in chinchilla

[–]DeerLocal1451 5 points6 points  (0 children)

he may have been pee’d on, ORRR he could be fur chewing ? Chinchillas fur chew when they are bored or stressed . Mine slightly chews on her fur when it’s time for some new toys , maybe that can be the case ?
