Health / Re: Seizure?

Thanks for your replies! He was seen by a vet yesterday because I just wanted to make sure that everything was ok. He's healthy and at a good weight and build and vet also checked his cage and surroundings and gave me a thumbs up.

it hasn't happened again since he's been cooling in front of the fan :)

Health / Seizure?
« on: July 25, 2016, 05:21:09 AM »
My chinchilla had what seemed like seizures. He went on his back and was moving his feet and hands frantically. I took him in my arms and he was a bit disoriented for a couple of seconds but then went to being his jumpy self, eating and also drinking.
Could it be that he had a slight seizure? I live in a hot and humid country so I thought that it might have been due to the heat.

I have a fan which I tried switching on for him, but he didn't like the wind. after the seizure happened I just went ahead and kept the fan on, and as far as I can tell he hasn't done it again since.

He's also now used to the fan and sometimes sleeps right in front of it. At first, after reading some articles, I thought it might be due to a sugar imbalance, but now thinking it might have been the heat?

Any help is greatly appreciated
