Title: Goodbye Modi =(
Post by: SamiB24 on September 20, 2011, 11:46:51 PM

My baby chinchilla passed away a little over a hour ago. He would have been 8 days old at noon. He wasnt eating enough and became dehydrated. We believe he may also have been sick in some way because of how quickly he passed.
Rest in peace Modi Dustbunny =(

 :'(  Sorry for your loss. Losing A chin of any age hurts.  The most common cause of death for kits is hypothermia, hypoglycemia, and dehydration.  An infection could be a culprit too. You might want to have a necropsy done to try and determine the exact cause of death.
