I've seen people buy large safely designed playpens for their chinchillas (looking into one myself). Maybe talk to them about getting one so it can have designated, safe play time. I would avoid the ball at all costs. They have such thick fur that when it traps heat it's about double that for...

I think pets are wonderful for children. I started with hamsters when I was about 10 then went to owning guinea pigs and now I own a chin. I actually adopted a1 year old hamster from our local shelter and let my niece help out with her whenever she was over(she passed last July and then we had...

I have a friend who always says Chimi looks like a pikachu, I do agree. She's like a really sassy pikachu with better fur.

If you're concerned, first thing is you should take him into the vet. You know your chin best and you know when he's sick. Even if he isn't, it'll give you peace at mind. I think the temp you're keeping him at may be a little high. I keep mine at a constant 60 degrees, some might think that's...

I recently acquired her from my mom's co-worker. She a pretty little standard grey. I've done a ton of research and am always looking for a way to make her a healthy happy little girl. But anyway, picture!

I was on vacation for four days(I worried about her the entire time, even though I had someone responsible watching her) as soon as I came back I went to her cage to greet her. We touched noses with me like she always does but I think in protest she snatched my glasses off my face and ran away...

I just bought my girl a FN182. Now this will be a huge change from her smaller cage which she's had for 6 years. I wanted to make her more wooden ledges. The previous owner had made four smaller ones before. I found the kiln dried pine, stainless steel washers, stainless steel nuts, but for the...

I wish I had known about Quality one. I ended up purchasing some fleece items from Annie Chinchic on Etsy. But I see she does liners which is awesome. I'll keep an eye out. Thank you!

Thanks for the advice! I just ordered her FN182 cage last night. I'm looking around for a good place to buy accessories for it now. In the end I think I will end up making her fleece items.

I just ordered my FN182 today woohoo. I'm excited to decorate it for my little girl. Where are some good places to get hammocks and durable cage accessories?

Thank you! I'm going to look around a lot for Chinnie hammocks. Right now she's not too happy with me, probably from taking her to the vet. She'll come up to cage for a scratch, I'll start scratching her chin and then she'll push me away with her paw.

I recently acquired a 6 year old chinchilla. She is my first chinchilla. Well first off, I recently took him(or what I thought) into the vet a discovered he is actually a she. The previous owners told me it was a male. Other then that she's ideal weight, digestions good and, teeth are perfect. I...
