The Cheeky Chinchillas answer to Doctor Who. A humorous look at this popular British
television programme.
I hope, at the same time, it will remind us all to take care of our chinchillas' teeth.
Dental problems are a major health concern with chinchillas. Correct diet is very important, always
use good quality pellets and hay. Cuttlefish is an excellent source of calcium and a good 'chew' too.
Calcium can also be bought in the form of a powder to sprinkle on pellets.
Also make sure there are suitable items for your chinnie to chew.
If your chinchilla shows sign of having problems with his teeth, you must take him to see your vet.
It is not always apparent if there is a problem, but some obvious signs are:
Drooling/Wet chest
Watery eyes/discharge
Small droppings
Weight loss
Pawing at the mouth
Eating slowly and unable to chew food
Crumbled pellets
