Hi everyone! I'm zompter's better half. We got our chins about 4 months ago. We started out with Petunia and Boop from the pet store, but poor Boop didn't make it because she was eating the plastic in the cage. That's why we love this forum! The people at the pet store just have no idea how to take care of chins. We just had an angel made to remember our sweetie though.
So to keep Petunia company, we got two babies: Peanut and Peaches. We thought this would be the best thing ever! But then we brought them home and they didn't get along :-( But we're still working on it and they are getting more used to each other now.
They are so smart- Tunie's new trick is running upside down under the wheel (see the other thread for pictures- I'm trying to get a video) and the babies just learned how to use their flying saucer wheel!
We also just got a bunch of fun new toys and blankies from Camphor chins which they are loving- Tunie is constantly in her new fleece bed and alternates between watching me type and sleeping.
Merry chin-mas everyone!
 
petunia looking cute, peanut having an adventure, and peaches with giant ears!

Hi Petunia!! Your chins are absolutely adorable! Welcome to CnH!
 
Hi and welcome! I'm in total agreement that petstores rarely give out credible advice, especially with chin care. I'm so sorry you lost a chin because of misinformation, but this is the best forum with the most knowledgeable people. Any questions and we are all here to help! :)

Your chins are incredibly adorable!
 
aww I am so sorry to hear of your loss, but you are right...you have found a wonderful place and these ppl on here know tons more than any pet store out there! I learned so much by reading and reading, and of course have made improvements on my Chin cage and Millie's eating habits :)
