Q & A / Introducing chins

« on: August 17, 2015, 07:20:59 PM »

Hello all! I have two chins, I've had one for almost three years and one for about one and a half. We have decided to try and introduce them so they will have each others company when we might be gone. So, I understand this could be an easy or difficult process but if you have introduced two chins I'd love to  hear how it went and how you did it. I'd like this to go as smoothly as possibly! Thanks!

Q & A / Handling issues

« on: August 10, 2015, 11:15:22 AM »

Hello! So I have had my chinchilla (Mouse) for two years, he will be three in November. We got him from PetSmart, and he was very timid when we brought him home and he still is. About two years ago we brought home a new chin for my sister named Mittens, we got Mittens from a breeder since we decided he might be a little more open to affection then Mouse; and we were right. Mittens loves to be held and cuddled while Mouse on the other hand is okay with being pet and such but as soon as you put more then one hand in his cage he just knows that you will try to pick him up. I am just about the only person he feels comfortable with (being pet past his chin and such) yet he still won't let me pick him up. I understand that every chin has it's own personality but is there any way I would be able to make him more comfortable with being picked up? Thanks!
