Q & A / hammock

« on: December 04, 2007, 10:26:20 AM »

i bought a relaxer pouch from pets at home its like a hammock you hang round your neck and its for chinchillas and to help bond with them well when i get mine out and im holding him he will go straight in i dont even have to put him in there he loves it he will sleep for hours in it if he was aloud well i was wondering if its ok to use it as one site told me off for using it like i said i dont put him in it if im wearing it he will go in by himself and snuggle up and sleep and i dont like to leave him in for too long incase he over heats and it says its for chinchillas to feel safe and helps bond thank you
