My chinchilla got a hold of a candle. Ate the wick, some wax and a bit of the aluminum case. She's acting fine but I'm super scared. Any advice??
 
I believe regular candles aren't toxic.. They're made of beeswax. I'd keep an eye on her and make sure her poos are normal. It wouldn't hurt to call your vet.
 
Just keep an eye on her poops to make sure she does not get a blockage for about 24 hours
