2008

I had a friend who was trying to get rid of her 2 Chins and we decided to take them in. They were so cute and sweet but I found them to be a lot of work! The cage had to be cleaned every day and they had a 4 story cage. They would pick through their food and throw around the pieces that they didn't like and the food is expensive for a little bag. They feel so soft but their hair gets all over everything, they shed worse than cats! I made sure to not put mine near the wall because they had chewed through my friends wall paper and wall. I even woke up one morning to find that one of them had chewed through the METAL bars of the cage and had been free all night! I'm just glad it didn't chew up anything else. Also, if you don't like dust or if you have any allergies to dust then you will not want one of these since they take dust baths! Needless to say, after about a month, we gave them back to my friend who then sold them.

You know if you go to a feed store you can buy Mazuri (the very best chinchilla food) by the pound, for much less than pet store foods. And the chins rarely pick through it!!
