    You Know You Own/Are owned by Chinchillas When...

    When you go out of town to visit your sister and her family and make them listen to "The Sounds Chinchillas Make" which has been downloaded to your laptop --- Oh the look of horror on their faces, lol. I love listening to those sounds but then I start to miss my boys even more.

    Where can i get fresh timothy hay?

    I bought 3rd cut from KleenMama. My 4 chins can't get enough of it. They act like they have never had hey before! I guess it's a hit with them!!!

    Already needing the A/C for the chin...

    Same here accept I am in Charleston, South Carolina. Even with the air conditioner on I worry if my chins are to warm because the heat index during the summer stays in the 100's. Although, I must say, we had a cooler than normal winter this year.

    churro does not make any sense

    It's possible, however, he (Dexter) and his cage mate (Dart) never groom each other. Never have! But remember, we are talking about a chin who walks out of a dust bath then rolls and twirls at the opening! He is our "special" boy. He keeps us laughing and is well loved:) My other two chins...

    churro does not make any sense

    I have one that is just like yours ... not to bright. I will have a gazillion wood sticks in my hand and he manages to find a fingernail, actually prefers the fingernail, always! Put the dustbath down and he rolls and twirls around the outside just at the opening. I could go on and on about...

    I bought my carriers from Quality Cages. They are metal and they sell single and double cages too.

    What are these noises? And raisins are bad?! What?

    I bark back and they stop. Usually. I get that "Oh gawd, it's her again" look from them. Unless they are barking in their sleep then I say "Mommy's Here" and that seems to help. One thing I've noticed about barking is you can hear a big inhale from them before they make that sound. And, If you...

    Opinions on the Marshall Folding Mansion?

    I have 2 Quality Cage Mansions and I think they are great. They come with cage guards so it keeps bedding and droppings inside the cage. Sliding pan and double doors work perfectly. Easy to assemble too. The only down side is the shelves are a bit narrow but I've solved that. Sarah Ralston from...

    Chins and TV??

    Barry Manilow could care less about TV. Meatball, however, watches tv. I could never tell what his likes or dislikes are until just recently I've noticed when Southpark is on he races to his ledge and soaks it in!

    how to get a chinny back in his cage?

    My chin knows the word "treat". I say it and he goes in his cage, unless he is not through playing. 9 times out of 10 it works. I wonder if they sense when I am antsy and trying too hard to get him in his cage? He is out for 30 to 60 minutes in the morning and in the evenings. At night when I am...

    Chinchilla cages on wood floors

    My first cage was from petsmart and my chin made a mess. Pee on the floors and walls! I was shocked. I've since replaced that cage with one I bought from Quality Cages and have had no urine problems. However, my chin, meatball, does pee on the floor during playtime. I keep towels in various...

    Professional Pest Control? (roach spray)

    Hi everyone, this is my first post. I live in Charleston, South Carolina and in this part of the country you must have your house sprayed monthly to control roaches, palmetto bugs and/or waterbugs. My vet said it is fine to spray with Meatball, my chinchilla and Dexter and Dart, my sons...
