sorry that i havent responded in a while guys but for some reason the site isnt notifying me when i get a reponse on a topic even though it is set for that, guess i should have checked back before. anyway, thank you all for your advice, Jamie is on to something, it is when the male is out and it does seem as though what she is describing fits. i think i mislead a bit about her behavior, it wasnt dramatic and it wasnt as if she was depressed or angry, she just changed a bit, not much, but enough for me to notice it. i have seen these spots on the floor in various places around the room but only small spots. it defiintly isnt "leaking" out of her, she is very clean, and as you were asking Joanne, she is about a year old, she eats well, is very healthy, drinks well, and gets plenty of exercise, she utilizes her exercise time well. she hasnt been " spraying" lately so i honestly havent taken her to the vet, because as i said, she seems very healthy otherwise and quite frankly i havent actually seen her doing this so i am not sure it is her, and it doesnt appear in her cage at all, nor his. thanks again for all of the links and your helpful advice. i do have one other question not pertaining to this situation, in the winter i dont keep the heating vent in the chins room open because i dont want it to get too warm in their room, i have done some reasearch but i am curious about the temp in their room, it isnt cold but it is certainly cooler than the rest of the house, probably about 60 or so. is that about right or what temp should i keep it at? thanks alot guys and by the way, i put some new pictures up on my photography website, take a look, if you would like something in particular please feel free to ask, i have alot of photos that are not on the website. here is the link, thanks again everyone!!!!
