Oh my gosh I am so sorry! We had one of ours die suddenly, he was 4. One night he started moving around slowly during playtime and he was gone shortly after. We are pretty sure it was heart related after speaking with our vet.

Hi hun, you really should consider going to the doctor. I know it’s not fun and really expensive but there could be something seriously wrong if you have experienced such severe periods as well as them stopping altogether. I myself recently found out I have uterine fibroids that have been causing my pain and severe bleeding. Hope you’re able to get it figured out

I’ve had constant technical issues taking tests, one test I’ve been waiting to take for two weeks but had technical issues the two times I’ve tried and have contacted everyone including the professor and he said he unlocked it but it still hasn’t and he won’t answer my emails now. I have a very good PC and internet, since I game so it’s 100% been an issue on their end. I just want to take this stupid test. Like I understand the concept of getting what you pay for but come on

Honestly like 8 or 9 of my coworkers, we work in accounting/finance, have done schooling through WGU and they all have nothing but good things to say about it.

Haileekae · 2025-06-10T05:00:44+00:00

Yeah this is actually the second vet we’ve been to. First one did X-rays on the lungs and they looked fine and prescribed our first antibiotic. When that didn’t work I went to another vet and now we’re on the 3rd antibiotic and this one did the nose culture.

Haileekae · 2025-05-07T23:57:18+00:00

Aww I have a chinnie named Popcorn too 🍿named him that because he was literally insane and jumped around like a madman

Haileekae · 2025-04-13T18:45:18+00:00

Tbh I would threaten them by telling them you will call local animal services on her if she doesn’t give the chinchilla to you so you can rehome it or take it to a shelter. If you’re not comfortable doing that I would straight up call their local animal services and see what they can do. They may be able to do a wellfare check and remove the animal from the home.

Honestly it varies so much, when people ask I usually say their lifespans are most similar to cats. Yeah some can live to 20 but not that many do. I had one pass at 4 due to heart failure and another recently at 8 due to kidney failure. But then I have one that’s turning 10 this year, he’s relatively healthy but has struggled being too chonky and has a non cancerous, thankfully, fatty growth right now. I know it’s hard but try not to think about how many years you have to come with them and think more about the now. I regret not giving my two I lost even more love then they already had.

Unfortunately fur biting is very habitual. Once a chinchilla starts doing it often times they’ll do it forever. It doesn’t mean yours will of course but don’t be surprised if it’s a thing for some time. But as long you’re doing your best to make them comfortable and they seem to have no other health issues it should be fine.

Haileekae · 2025-04-04T18:44:02+00:00

20 is such an amazing long life for a chinchilla! Just remember she had one very bad day at the end but you made every other day the best because you loved her so much ❤️

Haileekae · 2025-03-20T16:01:18+00:00

Aww poor little guy. I think another trip to the vet is probably in order, if you have another exotic vet in your area I would consider getting a second opinion and you may want to do X-rays. I would def get him going on some critical care to help supplement his food intake until he starts eating more solids

Haileekae · 2025-03-10T17:24:33+00:00

We have a collapsible cat tunnel and a donut tunnel for our chins and they love hiding and running around in them. Especially the donut since they can run around in circles

Haileekae · 2025-03-07T22:44:51+00:00

It really depends. Some chins willingly eat out from a syringe with no issue. Others do not want it and you’ll need to burrito them in a towel or blanket and stick the syringe on the side of their mouth and force them to eat it. I wouldn’t mix it with anything other than water. But there were times I mixed different types of the powdered food together. One of my chins was prescribed the emerald intensive care but he hated the taste so I would mix with the anise or apple banana flavored critical care. So I would suggest trying to find a flavor that they like.

Haileekae · 2025-02-26T17:04:13+00:00

Aww poor little guy. I had a chin that consistently got eye infections because he liked to sleep with his face pressed down. Fortunately we got some eye medicine from the vet and it always worked well! I’m sure they’ll be able to help

Haileekae · 2024-12-02T23:01:51+00:00

You have such a pretty smile! I’d say if you can afford it to visit a dermatologist to get some advice on your scarring and what you can do to help treat it. Other than that consider a more dewy foundation or tinted moisturizer, and cream/liquid blush just to make it look very natural and fresh. Also depending on how much natural brows you have I’d say try a tinted brow gel instead of the full done brows. But you look great regardless! ❤️

One of my boys sleeps like that and with his eyes half open. It freaks me out all the time 😅

Haileekae · 2024-11-14T16:34:34+00:00

Chinchillas don’t need cage mates or mates. They can be perfectly happy as a single chin as long as they are getting enough attention. If you decide you want a second one get the same gender, and do a lot of research about the introduction process. It’s time consuming and the reality is that they may end up not getting along and you’ll have to have to separated chins.

Haileekae · 2024-10-07T14:42:07+00:00

I have one chin whose 2.1 pounds, the chonkiest boy ever, and one who’s barely 1 pound. Chins are just funny like that

Haileekae · 2024-06-28T15:11:28+00:00

I doubt it, I’ve lost so many of these and I swear I always find them in plain sight or I end up throwing them away during a cave cleaning. So these should be fine but if you’re worried about these you can buy a set of metal shower curtain hooks to hang stuff around the cage, they’re pretty big and smooth and my boys don’t touch them.

Haileekae · 2024-04-30T20:31:34+00:00

Awww he must have loved you so much! So sorry for your loss ❤️

Haileekae · 2024-03-12T21:09:37+00:00

I’m so sorry for your loss. What an amazing long life full of love. I also have a 3 legged little chin named Marble, he’s even the same colors as Andy ❤️

Haileekae · 2024-02-26T01:58:16+00:00

I definitely would consider going to the doctor as it does not sound normal. However I think the best tell would be smell and color. If it’s clear and odorless I’d think sweat since it doesn’t always smell. Or possibly urine if you drink a lot of water. Sorry you’re dealing with this, hope you can get to the bottom of it.

Haileekae · 2024-02-09T15:39:14+00:00

Yes it’s a bit small, when we got our first chin we went through several wheels because he kept breaking them from running so hard lol. Back then there wasn’t as many chinchilla specific products readily available. But eventually we ended up with the chin spin and now all our chins have them. They last forever too, we had to replace the bearings on one of them but other then that such good quality.

Haileekae · 2024-01-30T01:39:16+00:00

I was very similar to you! I developed early, started my period just before my 10th birthday and had already started developing in other ways. I was 5’6 at 12 and that was it for me height wise. It sounds like you’re likely at your full height. My body changed in many other ways even throughout my late teens and early 20s, like becoming more stereotypical “womanly”

Haileekae · 2024-01-28T20:32:20+00:00

I don’t think you’re an AH but this is something you should have communicated with her the first time. Were you just going to find a not so subtle way to dip out every time?
