  1. Degu Discussion
    Last night my degus climbed up the side of their cage and ate a hole in the bottom of the raison bag and raisons went everywhere. (stupid me for forgetting them there :hitself: ) I dont know exactly how many they ate because they left a bunch in there scattered, but will they be ok :confused: ...
  2. Chinchilla Discussion
    i have just acquired a chinchilla, xander. i've read up a decent amount to know that too many treats may lead to constipation and various GI problems; however i havent been able to find info on how much is considered too much? ive only had xander for a few days and im just trying to "tame" him...
  3. Degu Discussion
    I went to clean out the degus cage today and all but one jumped into my arms for me to put them in the other cage, for them to have a sandbath.. Denny finally came out and I noticed she did not seem her normal self, I put her in the cage with the others, and kept an eye on her, making sure she...
  4. Degu Discussion
    hmmm just read a post on guinea pig treats and was wondering if anyone had any ideas for real treaty treats for degus they already love pumpkin seeds but other than that i have no ideas :confused:
  5. General Animal Discussion
    Do your pets attempt to get your attention in any cute or unusual ways? Olle sneezes at you. Indy jumps on you in the mornings when u r in bed and yawns all over u. In the evening he rakes his claws down your back. Emil meows silently. Or he smacks his chops. Sonny digs his claws in your leg...

    Do you feed your small animals commercially prepared treats of just fresh fruits and veggies?
  7. Chinchilla Discussion
    I miss my babies!!! :( It got warm here today and the chin room got up to nearly 80 degrees. With my worthless landlord putting off adding freon to our a/c for as long as is legally possible, it may be a while til we get air. So, in a pinch, I packed the chinnies up into their carriers and had...
  8. Degu Discussion
    Hey everyone, I will be moving to my own house here in a few months and I'm trying to decide if degus are right for me. I have done a lot of research so far and they seem like really cool little animals. But I'm worried because they are so prone to diseases. If I make sure they have a...
  9. Prairie Dog Discussion
    I've been feeding my prairie dogs a bit of alfalfa largely because a friend of mine is in to horses and can get it free. However, I was reading a book (bringing a prairie dog pup into your home by Karen Stoica and Betsy Callis -- very good, by the way) in which they say that alfalfa is really...
  10. Degu Discussion
    HI ALL, I wrote to Vitakraft asking them to put me in touch with a supplier of the new Degu food they have started selling, as i cant get it anywhere down here in Swansea. They have wrote back giving me the freephone number where i can order it over the phone..so if anyone is interested then...
  11. Degu Discussion
    I've had my degus for about a month. I got them from a rescue situation - their owner was a young boy who really wanted a hamster. When I got them they had wire floors and a hamster wheel - one of the tiny ones for dwarves with the wire rungs. They'd run in it with their front paws :( ...
  12. Degu Discussion
    Hikaru loves carrots and romaine lettuce. He also enjoys sweet potatoes. Ichigo likes sunflower seeds, sun-dried tomato chips, amd the occasional walnut. They both love corn but can't have very much.
  13. Chinchilla Discussion
    I'm looking for suggestions on how to take weight off of overweight chinchillas (namely Praline, who has fat deposits under her front legs). They have a wheel right now, but it's never used because it doesn't easily turn. I'm trying to get my hands on a flying saucer through a friend, but...
  14. Chinchilla Discussion
    Hey guys, I know you all have been wanting new pics of Saber and Sage and Lila and the hedgies and all, but I've been really busy lately. This is what's going on... When I went to pick up the hedgies last Thursday and take the cat to her new home, the breeder asked me to take a 6 week old...
  15. Chinchilla Discussion
    My baby is home right now from the vet. I know he's still in pain, because I tried to give him his medicine, he wouldn't take it. I put it in shredded wheat, and he looked at it and walked away. This is what they wrote on my invoice: We removed spurrs from Sneaker's left lower premolar, 1st...
  16. Mouse & Rat Discussion
    Well it sure is easy to give the ratties their Baytril! All I have to do is measure it with the syringe and squirt it onto little pieces of bread (one for each rat) and they scarf it down! :clap: They love the cherry flavor. I'll take some pics of them eating their Baytril bread soon. :)
  17. Chinchilla Discussion
    I saw the favorite snack thread and thought about posting one of my own. What do you give your chinnies for treats? I'm really all for giving them a healthy alternative for a treat. I give them as a once in a great while treat of a calcium stick. I know too much calcium in their diet isn't...
  18. Chinchilla Discussion
    My chins beg constantly for their favorite snack- dried cherries. I only give them to the chins every couple of days, they are about the size of 2 raisins. Does this sound reasonalbe to everyone? I'm not sure if I am being too stingy with the goods, or if I am one track. Thanks!
  19. Chinchilla Discussion
    Ok, so all of you know my plight with Stitch. We have tried the hay and water diet. We thought it was working, but it was not. So, we took a sample in to the vet. First time around they didn't catch anything, but the second time they did. So, they put him on flagyl. Great for a while, until he...
