I got my chinchilla, Azalea, a few weeks ago. She's 2 years old and has amazing temperament (I think) and I LOVE her! I just have a few questions because I'm a brand new Chin owner.
1. Well I've heard you can litter train chins, and I wanna know if they HAVE to be caged. I've heard that they like to chew on wires, and I was wondering if there's a way I could eliminate this threat, could I keep my chin out of a cage?
2. I bought a wooden cage with 4 levels for her. I've heard that wood is not optimal for chins, but she seems to be fine with it. I'm keeping aspen shavings in the bottom along with her little cooling tile and Timothy hay.
3. She is chewing on EVERYTHING. Is this gonna continue, or is it just because she's adjusting to her new owner?
4. I've been working on a bond with her, but she still drops hair and squeaks at me when she doesn't wanna be touched. I love her, and I want to build a super strong bond. What are the best ways to get the most fun out of building a bond with her?
5. I have 2 kitties, and they are VERY VERY curious! Would my little kitties frighten her or make her uncomfortable? I haven't really introduced them, and I'm kinda nervous for their reactions.
Also, my baby Azalea has little red bumps/sores on the tops of her feet. I read online that being in a wire cage does this to them (her previous owner didn't properly care for her). Can anyone confirm or disagree what these bumps are? I'll leave an image attached! Than you soooooo much!!!
