Well I tried to be tactful but still make an impressing in my reply. Time will tell on how well it was received. What do you think?
[FONT=Calisto MT]Chinchilla's are naturally curious and will love anything new in their cage. Something as simple as moving a toy from one side to the other makes the toy new again. Please refer to the toy album and get Chica some toys. She will show you a side of her personality that you didn't know was there. They should have stimulation for their well being and mental health. How could you think they didn't need toys? Buddy has about 6-8 hanging wooden bird toys that I rotate in and out of his cage. What does Chica chew on? What size cage is she in? It should be very large and spacious. I can hardly wait until I am a homeowner again and have the space to build Buddy a gigantic cage. I haven't worked out his square footage. I have 7 guinea pigs that have close to 20 sq. feet of space. They run laps and pop around like nuts. They don't sit in one spot all day. Buddy jumps all around the different shelves of his cage. In the mornings when I am up at 4 he is banging around insisting I get him out. He sits on my left shoulder while I make coffee, pack my lunch, and vacuum poos out of the GP cage. He loves it. Just now we got home and I put Buddy on my shoulder while I undressed and put on my pjs and changed my earrings. He is so happy when I do that. Just put yourself in Chica's place and what would you like?[/FONT]
