Drooling?? Worried owner.....
« on: March 02, 2014, 10:32:38 PM »

Its been a few months from my last post about my chinchilla Niblit, she had her teeth trimmed a month ago, one tooth grew up in to the roof of her mouth, she wasnt chewing on her stuff and she always lets me know when its time to go to the vet, well she didnt so almost $200 later shes better but i just saw her mouth and chest is wet, its not her normal ive been drinking water like crazy, its down her chest by her hands, Im scared out of my mind, shes old, and has a big attitude so im worried. please anyone who can help me, i plan on calling the vet first thing in the morning..

Because of your pet's history it's time for another tooth exam. There are other things besides tooth problems that can cause drooling as well. You may want to have a culture done to see if there is an infection.
