Title: allergies?!
Post by: olivia41 on August 05, 2009, 04:52:17 PM
so Liv's been around for about 6 months now and we all love him very much, including my mom. She's never complained of any allergy problems or anything but then when we got little Indy she started saying that she had been sneezing alot and now she's saying that she's itchy. She's always thought that she might possibly be allergic to our cat but now shes questioning possibly being allergic to my babies. IS there any chance she could be allergic to Indy but not Liv? I didn't think so but i figured i'd ask you guys anyway just to make sure   ::shrug:: help!

 ::silly::  The human body does some strange things.  If you have two chinchillas and she thinks she is only allergic to one ... ::think:: ... never heard that. Who knows.    ::think::   
::shrug:: 

Do you give both the same food and treats?
Do you use the same hay, dust bath dust and bedding for both?
Did your mom's itchy spells begin right after you got Indy?
Have you changed the brand of bedding, hay or food?
