I use fleece liners for my boy. I’m trying to litter train him though. I’ve been keeping the pans lined with puppy pads to make cleanup easier and also be able to pay attention to where he pees the most. Plus if there is a sudden chance in color or anything it’s easy to spot as well!

[sarahtapsell]

These videos are brilliant. I can't believe they haven't had more views. They are spot on.

[ShandaPanda]

Does anyone have guidance of how many yards of fabric to order? I will be putting in order at joanns online. It’s 8.99 per yard. I have a double critter nation cage and also want to do the backdrop. Thank you for your amazing tips, about to be first time owner and I’m feeling less overwhelmed since watching your videos!

[rehaanali]

Omg this is so helpful!!!! I needed this, so much! I just subbed I have 2 8 month boys, the have a feisty ferret nation cage also quick question I am 12 years old and my question is how do you afforded all those critter nations? A double unit is 250$ dollars online on chewy and I think you own a few chins so how were you able to buy all those critter nations? Also ur chins are sooo cute! My boys are standerds and how many chins do you own? This video is really helpful and thank you!!

[nadyaneysa]

[Alex-riyg]

[thinkoutloudwithme]

Wait a minute… For that cat litter box, dust bath thing. isn’t it made out of plastic!
So what’s stopping the chinchilla from nibbling on it and eating it and getting sick and dying??? 😅

My chinchilla LOVES to be under my bed and stake out there for 40 mins at a time!

[Athena]

I'm a new chinchilla owner, had her about 4 months. I let her out 1-2 times a day. She kept getting in my closet and chewing my shoes.. and silly me, I thought shutting the door would keep her out. With all that fluff, she looks a lot bigger than she is I guess, but she is able to flatten out and get under a 1 inch gap under the door. She is such a brat, but I love her to death

[braelynallison]

I tried the dust back a while back before watching this vid, my chin got scared and ended up being scared of the bath for a while

[StarGirlAQW]

I have a cage similar to the critter nation one but the top door is smaller than the bottom. My chinchilla is too much of a coward to jump from the second story tho so I always keep it open like a window. He loves to grab treats and sit and watch me clean my room etc.

[yakzivz]

I had two chinchillas for 4 yrs and I never had a problem with any of them trying to escape. I have no idea what you are talking about.

[tainatorres]

This is my fist time having a chinchila I have 3 girls

[felbrook]

My chinchilla escaped when she was in the bathroom l didn’t see the gap behind the bath… l have 3 cellars so l thought she must be down there somewhere. Everyday l went down there put clean water and fresh hay and called her after 3 days l really thought l had lost her…. I went down as usuall calling her nothing…. Just turned to walk away when l heard a noise and looked behind me when she came running towards me and let me pick her up…. I think she was scared and so pleased to see me….. the next few days she didn’t want to come out of her cage… now she is back to her normal mischief self🤪😱
