    Occasional Drool

    Just got a call from the vet. Eeyore did good, he's up and they gave him some pain medicine. I can pick him up in a couple hours! Thank goodness, I was so worried waiting for the call.

    They didn't put him under Friday, no xrays.

    What to do when chins don't care for hay?

    Neither of my boys have cared for hay lately. Tigger occasionally nibbles on the hay cubes. But neither has really touched the loose hay in awhile. Should I just switch brands a couple times and see if they like a different one? Maybe put it in both levels too. Is it essential they eat hay...

    Occasional Drool

    He's going back Monday to get his teeth filed, so he will be put under. So it wasn't a great vet visit, I'm really worried about him being put under as I've heard, with any animal or people even the risks, especially with them though. I'm hoping for the best and trying to stay positive, It's...

    Occasional Drool

    Going to the vet soon. Hopefully she'll look into the drool and we can figure out what is wrong.

    Was that with an xray?

    Occasional Drool

    Any idea what being put under and getting an xray will cost? I know it depends on the vet/place etc.... but any estimate/around.

    Occasional Drool

    He was on CC in nov and some of December. Since then he's eating his pellets which I just put them in water for about two seconds and drain the water. But I guess CC is technically soft food. An X-ray wasn't done. She did want to see him in a couple months to check his teeth, I may just make an...

    Occasional Drool

    So Eeyore had to be put on CC in November I believe, he was dehydrated. One of his front teeth ended up falling out and we went again, It didn't seemed to come out all the way, the other tooth was filled a bit and I continued with the CC for awhile. He's now been eating his pellets, only they...

    Items to use during playtime.....

    Are there any items that can be used during playtime to make it more "fun"? When I first started, I would just have them out in there playpen, which was just a small animal gate, but gave them a nice amount of room to roam, which just a couple chew sticks.....I've just ordered a mini maze for...

    Should you have a light on at night?

    Yeah, I keep the light on my alarm clock up to the brightest it can get so it's no where near pitch black in my room. So it seems that's good enough, which is good.

    Should you have a light on at night?

    That's good to know. It's much easier for me to fall asleep with the glow from my alarm clock then the actual night light. So it's not completely pitch black, but now too bright. Thanks guys.

    Should you have a light on at night?

    I've been wondering if the chins needs a light at night since that is when they are mostly up and about, and sleep during the day. My room isn't pitch black as my ihome has a glow that I can control how bright it is, I recently put an actual night light in the room but it was too bright for me...

    Two chinchillas up for adoption in pet store

    I got my two boys from petsmart, I got them both together and it was my first time owning chins. I guess, any chin can have problems. I didn't know my guys backround when I got them either, and didn't have any problems, just recently was the first time, eeyore had a problem with his tooth but is...

    Broken Bond

    I agree, I'm doing this for eeyore, giving him critical care. First couple days, he hated it!. Now he doesn't mind it at all. He wouldn't come over to me then either thinking everytime he'd be getting the CC. But now he's fine. He doesn't mind it at all. It will just take time.

    Tooth Fell Out!

    The vet recommended trying to give him a treat to get something in him when he wasn't eating, he refused them then. He's now eating on his own, and as far as I can tell, back to normal. Normal poop, eating his softened pellets etc.....and last night he ate even more pellets then the night before.

    Tooth Fell Out!

    It is! And it keeps getting better, He's finally starting to eat on his own, It was the soft pellets, but that is still a great improvement, and he actually took his treat last night. I'm definatly thankful he's improving, it was quite a scare!

    Tooth Fell Out!

    Thank you, He is starting to get back to normal. I can't tell the difference in poop between him and tigger which is great, it seems to be back to normal, and he seems to be eating a bit on his own with the softened pellets, and seems to not dislike the CC has much as in the beginning. Things...

    Tooth Fell Out!

    It was the lower front tooth. Everything came back good at the vet. I guess it didn't come all the way out, there was still some tooth in his gums. She filled the other one a little, she said he seemed much more energetic which was a good thing, and good he ate on his own last night. She said...
