I have two chinchillas but one of them passed away yesterday because of the heat stroke. Other one is agonizing and don't know what to do. There is no vet. specialized on this animal in my country (Turkey) therefore, they can't do anything. Just gave her serum from hypodermic. But it didn't help her I thought you could help me with saying what to do. She is looking good from outside but not eating, drinking just sitting in her cage. The serious thing is she is giving salivary sometimes. I read on net if chinchillas heat will increase their color of ears will get red but there is no sign like that on my chinchilla. The place where I bought told me to put ice pats inside of her cage until she turns normal health. But not sure it helps her at the moment or not. She is shiviring and giving pituitary/salivary. Please tell me what can I or a vet can do for her. I'll be waiting your answer. Thanks for your help and support. Greetings from Turkey.
