    X-rays of a 17 year old chinchilla.

    I keep forgetting I have these, last year Roy, my now almost 18 year old chinchilla, got full body X-rays done to check to see how he was aging. I thought I’d post them for everyone to see. My files apparently are too big so I’ll have to post a link to my tumblr since I don’t have access to a...

    Deaths with Petsmart Chins

    The one here has been fine, my friend got hers from them. Hes so sweet, very well mannered. Hes doing fine, she even got a second one and hes just as sweet and even more well mannered. Perhaps its just with a Particular vendor? The one here uses Barny's Pets. I know other states don't (there...

    Digging in food

    Out of annoyance last night I tossed in a old cereal bowl I had that is ceramic, it's shaped a bit different then the other bowls I've tried in the past, more curved I suppose, I added a small amount of food last night and this after noon when I got home, there is only a few pellets on the shelf...

    Digging in food

    Is there ANY way to break this habit or a dish that would keep digging to a minim? I adopted a 5 year old female from someone, and she has the worst habits! Don't get me wrong, shes a sweet heart and I love her, but this food digging is starting to drive me bonkers! I think her old owners...

    Suggestion as to how to help chins at Petsmart

    Not sure if anyone has said this.. But their standards do allow wooden things in the cage.. The one here has a wood hut and one of the girls hand made a fleece cover for the frozen water bottles that they put in the cage to help them keep cool (She has chins of her own and understands the...

    Ferret nation side by side

    : ) I would have to disagree on the FN and CN not fitting together... They fit just fine and my chins are loving the new space. The CN I have is the exact same as the FN, the only difference is the bars are closer together and are horizontal instead of vertical (It was supposed to be an inch...

    dividing a single level fn cage into 2 sections

    You could always make a divider out of chinchilla safe wood and hard wire cloth.

    Ferret nation side by side

    I am so happy I found this. I am getting a Critter nation tomorrow, (assuming my work gets it in!) and I plan on somehow connecting it up with my Ferret nation. My plan was to keep the top side where it was and take out the bottom sides connecting it together, but I was unsure if this would be...

    Sented Dust baths

    Thankfully she picked up the blue cloud we sell in store. I told my coworker that the perfume in it could cause resporty issues, but I wanted to double check to make sure I wasn't wrong. Ive been having a lot of problems with this certain coworker and giving the right info out to new pet...

    Have you owned a chin with Malo or another genetic defect?

    Not sure if my little girl has a defect, or if mum accidentally bit off her toes when she was a baby, but my little Ed is missing all her fingers on one of her front paws. Doesn't bother her at all though.

    Toys your chin just won't touch

    My girls don't like anything that's not wicker or willow.. It gets pricy fast when it comes to getting them toys.. They go threw the wicker and willow with in hours. I found some bigger ones that we started carrying at work that last time a few weeks.

    Sented Dust baths

    So I work at Petsmart, I know a lot of you do not like petsmarts because of the care given to the animals. Well before I get hate post about working there, I take pride in the care our animals are given. We are one of the stores that care about the care of our animals, and my manager and I...
