Pumice Stone

[CrystalH]

My chinchilla's eye has been watering for a little more than a week and it got me all freaked out thinking it was a sign of malo--but i've p much narrowed down the culprit to the introduction of super pet lava ledges and accessories into the cage, which i think have gotten some dust into his eye when he chews it. i was really excited to use this as a chewing tool...but i don't want his eye to be always irritated. does anybody know if this is because of the quality of the pumice at superpet? can you recommend a brand or store (online) that sells good quality pumice?

I've never had this problem with lava products. Have you tried rinsing his yet out with saline to see if there may just be a dust particle or something stuck in there that's irritating it.

Get the sterile saline solution in the eye drops section of Walmart/Target, etc.
