I noticed that Freya's had some small poops the last couple days, so I wanted to give her a stomach massage. But when I (finally) managed to pick her up and get a good look at her, I noticed this sort of... gunk, like a whitish-clear discharge, coming from her vagina. She got really fidgety and...

My boyfriend and I cleaned up the area around Freya's cage just today, and ever since we did that, we've been finding random little poops all over the entire apartment. Places that aren't even by her cage and where she's never been! So my boyfriend has dubbed our chinchilla a "poop ninja". :rofl2:

So, Freya is comfortable enough with me around her cage and sticking my hand in that she will hop up on my hands. Today, I tried something a little risky, but well worth the results! I opened up her cage door, let her come up and into my hands, then scooped her up from the bottom (holding her...

Hi, my name's Becky, but online people call me Rimbaum (and any variation thereof) or MaRu. I'm a first time chinchilla owner, and my darling little Freya, even though she's shy around me and my boyfriend right now, has been giving me a lot of joy after being a pet owner my whole life and...
