I'm writing and illustrating a book about chinchillas...I decided yesterday. I know, sudden, right? It should come out good, my step dad and I wrote a book together a few years ago, I'll attach the cover so you guys can see (it's not published, we've been trying for years, but it is ready to be...

Raptor is very small, but he kinda freaks them out..however my hamster also freaked them out haha. Raptor lands on their cages occasionally but they ignore him even if he crawls inside. His wing flapping doesn't seem to bother them, but then again he's smaller than a parakeet. I would suggest...

I luff his leeps in peekture number two ♥

Little Pink Chinchilla "Testicles"

I'm wondering if the 50 lb bag of Mazuri that disappeared was sold somewhere along the line? I can't think of any other way for it to disappear that fast! Unless it was thrown out, but who throws out 50 lbs of animal food?! I'm still reeling over the Kangaroo Pellet thing. Why is that even for...

I wonder why his fur ends up matted? He gets baths at least 3 times a week, the same as all my other babies, and no one else has matted fur... hmmm... *curses vet* Ya know, they told me cheerios were terrible treats for chinchillas that should never be given to them EVER, but raisins were...

I had to stack them again because I moved everything around in my living room. They can't see each other, but they can hear each other and I'm sure they can smell each other. We'll see how this pouch thing goes--thanks again everyone :)

Thank you both for the information. I don't know if Rodya is fur chewing...if he is, it isn't bad at all, esp compared to the pictures on the site Tanya's link sent me to (chinnation.com). I tried the fleece buddies, but they really seem to hate them. I even switched them so they'd have the...

I. Am. Going. To. SCREAM. From. The. Cute. When are we setting up that railroad for Mousey to finally come home to me?? ;)

That's what he seems like, too. Oh, and if I give him a treat, he'll hunch over it and eat it all fast with his back to the wall as if to say "NO. You cannot have any of my shredded wheat! Stop trying to take it from me with your flat vertical wall-hands." O_o He's such a weirdo lol. He really...

I know you guys are looking at this thread!! :(

Have you thought about doing a necropsy on mom and perhaps telling Petco about it? Doubt they'd do much, but if you make enough of a fuss...maybe something good will come out of the chins they sell in the future?

Incubus fan? :D In other news, Fungus is adorable, but really I think we're all just suckers for your pictures. They're very nice. Give us a thread for each of your chins! :thumbsup:

Mork does this thing where he'll stare at the wall for hours to make sure it doesn't go anywhere. I'm watching you, he thinks, I know you'll move as soon as I turn my back! I know that's what he thinks. lol IDK if that's boredom, or just...Mork. He's a little strange. I can't put the TV or...

I was reading a book to Rodya in his playpen, letting him run around on my and get used to me, and he kept coming up and tasting it. Now my Irish Language book has got chinchilla teeth marks on the cover, in like 15 different places. So cute. Like everyone else has said, it reminds me of him...

I just want to say thank you for taking her to the vet as soon as you knew something was wrong, and then coming on here to post for advice after the fact. I would prefer to see MUCH more of that around here. :hearts:

Mork has stolen 2 screwdrivers and a hammer. O_o

So I finally got the room situated. Mork is in the living room now, and I put heavy blankets up on both doorways. I also took out the window fan that was in the kitchen. I cannot believe how much my common sense was lacking. "Duh, hey guys, why don't my magic air cooler work gooder than it do...

:cry3: :tissue: Fritz! Our poor baby! I say our because I know everyone on this forum and anyone who physically came in contact with him loved him...but mostly you, Crysta. Oh, poor, poor Fritz! :cry2: I know there weren't any "signs" that you didn't see, because you are so careful and...
