I'm not talking about the spinning wheel for exercise I meant the wheel for the cage at the very bottom as you can see in the photo

Right now I have the windows open to let the cool air in and I am going to turn the fan on and see if that helps also, what else can I do to help the lil guy? He has fresh water and I will see how he does tonight.

Q & A / Re: My Mom and Uncle Keeps Releasing Chinchilla Out of its Cage help??
« on: November 08, 2013, 02:46:03 PM »Pet chinchillas are treated quite a bit differently than chinchillas on fur ranches. Those chinchillas do very well without getting let out of their cage to exercise and they are raised by the thousands and most do not have exercise wheels. I'm not saying that's right or wrong I'm just that it's proven that chinchillas can do well confined to a cage. I do agree that once a month is not enough unless you are handling your pet regularly outside of its cage. I would say three times a week is minimal for a pet that you want to stay tame.Would you still suggest to let him out more than once a month even if he has taller cage?
Regardless of that if you are going to let a chinchilla roam in places that have not been made safe for them you will soon have a dead chinchilla.

They said chinchilla needs time outside of its cage to stay healthy and when I said do it once every few months they said that's not enough

I really don't like them to release him out of its cage he bites on cords and hard to catch him when it's out in the cage. They think having him inside the cage is unhealthy even he has exercising wheel in its cage. Is this true??

We are a bit confused with the last picture. Do you think that you could please make an easier one to understand? Also how did you attach the cardboard to the inside of the cat carrier?

How can she do it by blocking with the cardboard at the entrance of the cage without taking him out of the cage like how you did in the past? Will you give me details?

« on: March 06, 2013, 11:06:00 PM »Buy a small dog carrier from a pet store. Or buy one from tjschinchillasupplies.com. These are excellent carriers!How should She put him inside the carrier? He's very energetic and can be kind of agressive. Does she need to pick him up or put the carrier in front of the chinchilla cage entrance door? How can She close it safely without him jumping out of the carrier? We are afraid he might escape from the carrier when he's in it or when She try to close the lid.

Also she's afraid to use the chinchilla ball or the cat carrier because somehow she is afraid he might get out or jump out of it. Would using the card board box be easier? She doesn't know how she should do it, he's VERY sneaky and the type he gets out. She has to do this every morning all by herself. She also has to take out the newspaper and cleaning out other junks. Should she hold the cardboard there herself? Shes a bit confused on how it should be held there. She has to use the brush and dustpan to get stuff out of the cage on the bottom and a vacuum as well. Please help us.
How should she block it with the cardboard when cleaning? Does she put it on the inside of it or the outside?

She has a chinchilla and it tries to get out of the cage when she cleans. What can she do so it won't be able to get out? The arrow I have is the wooden part where she jumps down from and gets out. She can not take that out since her uncle wants it there. Hes not a big fan of the ball and he might try to escape in it. http://i.imgur.com/WZsh9ON.jpg?1
