And I took him to the vet about two months ago. Besides him being a tiny bit of a fatty she said he looked like a very healthy chinchilla.

Thank you guys so much, he's been acting normal since and everything, but I'm not sure if I can even bring my dog upstairs anymore. I never even thought of letting them out and near each other but my chinchilla always stuck his nose out of his cage to sniff him and he kinda seemed to like him. Once again thank you, I think from all the information that he probably went into shock. I felt horrible :-\

Health / scared chinchilla might have had a seizure?
« on: June 27, 2012, 10:08:22 PM »
The other night I let my chinchilla run around while my dog was upstairs as well. The dog didn't even notice the chin on the couch and jumped right up like usual and lied down. The chin was jumping on him and sniffing him all over and even tried to nibble on my dog's nails. They were fine together and I thought my chin actually really enjoyed it, so I let them around each other again tonight. After a couple seconds of sniffing (from my dog) my chinchilla's head slowly started to rest on the blanket. I knew this was unusual so I lifted him up and held him close to my chest. He wasn't shaking but his body was stiff so I took him into another room and after a minute of sitting on my lap he started jumping around and eating him treats like nothing happened. He wasn't acting confused or anything and his ears weren't hot or red or anything so I know he wasn't overheating from the more than likely seizure. I watched him for an hour afterwards and he has been acting completely normal again. Was it just because he was scared at that moment? Or will this happen again even though the "scare" isn't around him anymore? Sorry this is so long, I just want all the details out there!!

Health / Re: male chinchilla swollen around testicles?
« on: May 08, 2012, 03:35:20 PM »
well I know it's not his testicles because i could clearly see them. That's how I knew the bulge was in front of them. I have an appointment with the vet tomorrow, but he's not acting strange or eating/drinking less so I don't know if it's normal or not.

Health / male chinchilla swollen around testicles?
« on: May 04, 2012, 07:08:16 AM »
My chinchilla is around five years old and he is a male. Last night he was running around on my couch and he jumped on the back of it and I could clearly see the area in front of his testicles (near his stomach) was big. I have never noticed this before, but then again I have never checked this area before. In front of his testicles felt really big and swollen and not rock hard but it was firm. Should I be concerned about this? Or is this normal?
