Q & A / Need help for chinchilla with a dental problem
« on: January 15, 2017, 01:42:44 AM »
We have a four year old chinchilla with a dental problem. Last Saturday he had an operation and survived it but unfortunately he doesn’t want to eat nothing by himself. He was on antibiotics and meloxicam for 7 days and we are giving him food with syringe but he doesn’t like it all and he is fighting during the process of feeding. The doctors say he doesn’t have other health problems. Has anyone been in this situation? Is this normal? How long does it takes from them to stars to eat by themselves even soft food (their food placed in water). We are from Bulgaria and will be very grateful for any information and tips.
