Hi fellow chin owners. My name is Lari and I'm new here I currently have 7 chins.

Keeler, my 3 year old male and the one who started it all. (Standard grey)
Kintone (Kin-toe-nay),my almost 3 year old female (white mosaic)
Pocko (who is really my sister's, but has been here since he was a baby (he's keeler and kinto's baby. he just turned 1 yesterday) (SG)
Athena-she's only 7 months old and she's another one one of the babies born here. (White mosaic)

That's all I had until yesterday. I rescued 3 more cuties from an abusive home. These guys are terrified. Any tips on how to warm them up to me and the other chins would be great :). Also, should I change their names, or will they be confused?

Chichi- she's 9 months old. (Black velvet)
Shae-she's 7 months old (**** Beige) she's the most terrified
Gizmo- he's only 5 months old (ebony mosaic)


Thanks for reading, and I hope you all have a good day :):)
 
Hi Lari. Welcome to CnH. I would try to make as little change to their cage as possible except for good pellets and hay. Sit beside them and talk softly. Offer them willow sticks from your hand and maybe an oat or two. Will take a while to earn their trust. I think it's wonderful that you take in rescues. Good luck. There is a lot of great advice in this forum.
