Does anybody use a dual level cage for one chin? Im looking at a dual level (the stackable FN cages) and wondering if anybody has ever made it so the chin could use both cages/levels? Hubby wants our to be critter to have as much room as possible lol. ;)

I used a small animal/reptile pad heater on the bottom of my hedgehogs cage with an adapter/controller that allowed me to control the temp on the pad. Granted hers was a plastic base and not glass...so not sure if you could do the same with glass.. .might get way too hot. I see you are in...

I had to change my hedgie's wheel at a point as well as her old one cracked. I too was worried about her turning her nose up at it as she was so particular lol. She did for a day, but then realized she liked it better and ran even more. :) Glad yours worked out as well!

Another thing you can to to make nail trimming easier is if you have a mesh grate stand them on it so their nails come through (Grate has to be solid and thick enough that they have good standing surface). Then just snip the nails from underneath! It worked for a bit for me with my...

I HIGHLY recommend The Village Animal Clinic in Voorheesville, NY. I worked with these vets for a couple of years and they are fantastic people and wonderful, compassionate vets. Dr Mike McCarthy has taken care of not only our family dogs, but he cared for my hegehog Zuri from her initial...

Maybe I missed it, but I don't see any where mentioned that he has actual heat in his cage. I saw mention of a room heater but that's it. My girl LOVED her heater. I had one of the ones that stick to the underside of the cage and I got an adapter to control the temperature. She would lay flat...

Thanks all! :hug2: Awww its a good name! :-) We picked it because it was Swahili for "Cute" and as she was an african pygmy hedgehog we thought it fit ;-)

Cinder, we are the same way... always going for the largest we can accommodate for our critters. :) So thank you for this...we were thinking it was a bit on the smaller side as well.

Thanks all! Yes I meant to mention its not set up for a chin... just still sitting from my recently passed Hedgie. :( So yes I would be removing the igloo and wheel. Thank you for the input... I'll most likely just get a new all metal cage. Hubby and I always err on the side of caution with our...

Here's the cage in question. We certainly are opening to purchasing a new one.. .kind of think we might anyway as its a plastic base.

So I read somewhere that the recommended size cage is 18x16x18, is this correct? The cage I have currently, that formerly housed my hedgehog, is 22 deep, 19 high and 33 wide. Is this an OK size for a chin? Two chins? It does have a plastic bottom, which I know some chins attempt to chew and it...

Hello All, Figured I'd start off here and introduce myself. My names Danielle and I am here to get some more info on chinchillas as we are considering acquiring one soon! We recently lost our beloved hedgie of 3 years, Zuri, to oral cancer. Its ripped our hearts out and after a bit of...
