Don't mislead others upstairs. I have my own chinchilla, which is exquisite. Landlord, just ask any pet seller and you will know that my neighbor totoro is weaker than other animals!
1, my neighbor totoro is afraid of heat. When the temperature reaches 28, he will die of heatstroke. Please keep it cool indoors.
My neighbor totoro loves cleanliness, but is afraid of water. Don't let him get wet Give him a bath, and he will bathe himself. If possible, it's best to wash it every day. The cage is cleaned about every three days.
Don't feed food indiscriminately, and don't give it to others. There are many totoro food sellers on the Internet. Try to give him Timothy grass instead of staple food and snacks, because Timothy grass can regulate the stomach and is good for cats.
Get close to it, or you will be lonely.
5. Remember to buy it something to grind teeth.
6, the price difference is relatively large, the most common standard ash is about a few hundred dollars. There are silk black 1, 2K and thousands of silver, mainly depending on the appearance.
7. Pay attention to disease prevention. It's best to go to a physical store to see the health status of the living body. Usually observe more and consult more.
The reason why this kind of animal is expensive is that the quantity is small, and the quantity is small because they are weak, unable to survive in nature, and have poor reproductive ability, so they can only be raised artificially.
Are chinchillas easy to raise?
I have a chinchilla. I call it a cat. Of course, it is easy to cultivate feelings when you are young. I brought it back when the cat was half a year old. It took me about five months to establish a good relationship with it. At first, it didn't give it a hug at all. Later, I met it and gave it a hug. It especially likes being tickled.
Varieties are different in coat color, such as standard gray, velvet, pure black, pure white, apricot and so on. And colorful cats. Generally speaking, the price of standard ash is the lowest, but it costs several hundred. My sister's chinchilla matches the standard gray 800 yuan. If it is velvet, pure white, etc. , to one thousand or two thousand, etc.
As far as breeding is concerned, I think it is very easy to raise. As long as food, grass and water are prepared for it, the owner will be fine if he is not at home for two days. Once it was put for two days, and it was okay.
Totoro is a bit tough in summer, because it is afraid of heat and needs to turn on the air conditioner to cool down. If I can't turn on the air conditioner, I need to prepare ice cubes for it. I iced it every night last summer.
Attached to the resources is a photo of my cat, the gray cat sister, who is over one year old. You can have a look if you are interested.
Is my chinchilla easy to keep? The novice just bought one.
My Neighbor Totoro's childhood was dominated by alfalfa, and his adulthood was dominated by western grass in Tianmu Mountain. You can feed the grass in the morning and the grain at night. Drinking water must be pure water or mineral water. You need to eat apples, peel and core them. In short, scientific feeding and care will keep them well.
Totoro itself has no smell, only urine is a little smelly, so it should be cleaned frequently, especially in summer. In summer, the air humidity is high, so you have to take a bath often, otherwise you will feel uncomfortable, scratch or even bite your hair. It's dry in winter, so you can take a bath in about 3 days! Totoro takes a bath with special sand and volcanic ash, not water! My neighbor totoro, like hamster, bathes in bath sand, using special sand instead of water.
My neighbor totoro's Baba is out of control, but it has almost no taste. Just pick it up in the late breeding period and throw it in the trash can.
On the whole, my neighbor totoro is not difficult to raise. It doesn't need human company. Just feed it regularly, bathe it regularly with special cat litter, and then watch it struggle in the cat litter. I think the cutest thing is that it likes to sell cute with others, and there is no bottom line. If there must be shortcomings, it is to shake your hair casually. If you can accept these two points, I think it's good to have a chinchilla.
Is it easy to raise a chinchilla?
Easy to raise.
Feeding technique
1, Totoro is 8 months, and the average life span is 10-20 years.
2. The average pregnancy of chinchillas is 1 1 1 day. In order to avoid the danger caused by blood matching (that is, the wet mother of my neighbor totoro mates again), my neighbor totoro usually only gives birth to one or two children once a year 1-4.
3. There are many problems to be paid attention to when raising chinchillas. The most important thing is to pay attention to cooling in summer. If the temperature exceeds 28 degrees, my chinchilla will die of heatstroke. Second, always observe the poop of chinchillas. When I first came out, I gently broke it with my hand. The cross section was dark green and there were pores. Too soft or too hard is unhealthy. If they are too hard, they should feed a small piece of fresh apple to relieve constipation. If they are soft, they will have gastrointestinal problems. If they change all their food to ladder grass, they will usually recover on their own. Third, don't feed snacks indiscriminately. Don't take chances. Eating my neighbor totoro doesn't mean eating. In the long-term reproduction of human beings, my neighbor totoro has lost the ability to distinguish food. It is best not to feed them. If you want to feed them, you can give them oatmeal. Remember not to feed them too much. Many people give them snacks on the internet. My neighbor totoro is very happy, but it is not good for my health. Fourth, the feeding order is Timothy grass in the morning, chinchilla food in the evening, and a handful of alfalfa grass. Don't give my totoro straw just because it doesn't eat straw. My neighbor totoro needs straw for grinding his teeth on both sides, and the grindstones on both sides can't be grinded. The nutrition of straw is far better than that of grass leaves. Feeding only alfalfa and chinchillas will lead to obesity and cause diseases, so adult chinchillas must be matched with ladder grass.
4. Let's see what my neighbor totoro looks like first. Five fingers on the front foot, four toes on the back leg, and ear injury (mostly bitten by other chinchillas when drinking milk in childhood). As for health, it is no problem to observe whether my totoro is vigorous and whether its jumping ability is normal. It is also necessary to observe whether the chinchilla has the symptoms of biting hair, mostly with its tail. If it's from * *.
My chinchilla will remove the springboard in the early stage of production to avoid accidents. Two days before giving birth, I will move my chinchilla into a nursery cage (that is, a small cage with a dense net to avoid accidents). It's better to have a grass nest, and I can't let my chinchilla lie directly on the bottom net. Totoro usually gives birth to two babies at a time. If you have 3 or 4 babies, consider artificial breastfeeding. We should weigh the newborn totoro with an electronic scale every day. If we gain weight, we don't have to worry. If you lose weight, it means that there is not enough milk. Must be artificially breast-fed, can use milk substitutes, can also use baby milk powder. Female cats can't take a bath for half a month after giving birth, and they will be a little nervous during childbirth and lactation. In order to avoid interference, she can take calcium gluconate solution in drinking water during lactation, or feed raw oatmeal, about 65,438+05 tablets a day, and eat a little when the baby totoro can eat.
6. It must be noted that if two chinchillas are unfamiliar, they must not be kept directly in the cage, otherwise the male cat is likely to be poisoned. First, put the cages of two cats nearby, let them get close, and then put them in different cages. Finally, two cats can only be caged if they stop fighting. General female cats * * *, they will mate successfully. If the mating bolt is found (most of them are not found), or the female cat gains weight quickly, it means that the mating is successful. At this time, the two cats should be switched in the cage, and the pregnant female cat will bite the male cat. It must also be noted that female cats can no longer live with male cats after 4 months, and can only mate after 8 months of adulthood. Otherwise, early pregnancy may lead to stillbirth or weakness, which will also have a great impact on the health of female cats. It is best to let the female cat rest alone for more than half a year before the next mating.
How is my chinchilla?
Depending on where you keep it, the north will be better. Totoro is afraid of heat, but if it is compared with dogs, it really can't be compared with ... dogs are born to live, and if you don't serve them well, Totoro will die. Although my neighbor totoro can live for a long time (but it's not as horrible as the first floor said, I heard that it can live for about 10 years), but the premise is that it won't die for various reasons. For example, chinchillas should pay attention to hygiene, which is easy to be infected with fungi, which will lead to hair loss and eye inflammation. Moreover, chinchillas are more difficult to treat when they are sick, because many veterinarians will treat dogs but not chinchillas. Besides, if the room temperature exceeds 28 degrees, my neighbor totoro is prone to heatstroke and has a great chance of dying of heatstroke. So, if you take care of it, you can live. To borrow someone's words, "you can feed honestly", but it is not "easy to raise".
My neighbor totoro has a strong vitality. If it's the first time, it's recommended. The standard gray near Shanghai, DD is about 550, MM is about 650, DD is about 600 and MM is about 700. The most basic cage is about 300. Food is enough for half a year and sand bath is enough for about three months. After that, if you don't get sick, the monthly expenses are basically around 2, 30 yuan.
Are chinchillas easy to raise?
Basic feed
Totoro's basic feed is Alpha and Totoro's food, and there are even Alpha cubes on the market, which are convenient for feeding Totoro and grinding teeth. Just give them a small bundle of alpha hair and a teaspoon of totoro food when they get up at dusk.
snack
With more and more people raising chinchillas, there are more and more kinds of snacks for chinchillas. In fact, generally speaking, you can feed modern melon seeds, a few raisins or even a small apple, but don't feed too much, which will affect the eating habits and intestines of my neighbor totoro and cause discomfort or diarrhea.
Harmful food
In fact, most of the common diseases of chinchillas are bad stomachs, which are generally caused by partial eclipse or eating habits, so don't feed chinchillas indiscriminately, because some things will do harm to them, for example, they will like to eat bird food or hamster food, but it is better to choose the right chinchillas.
Rules for feeding chinchillas.
There are many things to pay attention to when feeding chinchillas. Too much or too little will make your pet sick, and carelessness may lead to more serious consequences. Therefore, you should pay attention to the following points before feeding:
It only needs to be fed once every night and only needs enough hay during the day, so it can be used as its grass school. If the baby totoro is only three months old, the grain quantity must be halved, and the grain quantity will increase with the baby totoro's age until it is eight months old. If there is too much left after feeding, pay attention to the feeding amount. If my neighbor totoro has a bad appetite, pay attention to its health.
If there is nothing left after each feeding, pay attention to whether the feeding amount is too small, not too many snacks, and don't give irritating food.
The best nutritious food for chinchillas.
You can put some clover in the morning and feed them totoro food at night. Snacks, you can occasionally give them fruit slices, raisins, hair cream, wheat grass and so on. But if you feed them too many snacks, they will have a partial eclipse and diarrhea! If they have a bad habit of partial eclipse, they can mix some snacks into the staple food, but the amount of snacks will gradually decrease until no snacks are added. Let it slowly change the bad habit of partial eclipse. But don't eat too many snacks.
Totoro should not eat fresh fruits, vegetables and lettuce, because fresh food can cause diarrhea. And don't feed them hamster food or white rabbit food, because these things are harmful to them. In addition, water should leak out or boil.
Matters needing attention when taking it home for the first time
1. Avoid direct sunlight on my chinchilla on the way, and turn on the air conditioner to cool down when the temperature inside the car exceeds 25℃.
Try to avoid my chinchilla being exposed or staying in the car in summer to prevent my chinchilla from getting heatstroke.
2. On the way, avoid the objects in the cage from hurting my chinchilla, and don't put my chinchilla away until you go home and set up the cage.
Come out.
When you get home, the cage should be placed in a dark, quiet, cool and ventilated place (never.
Balcony), it is recommended to put in the living room.
Don't touch, hug or let it out for 2-3 days after you go home. If you release it too early, you will.
Make it too nervous and cause unnecessary harm.
It's normal to bark and make noise on the first 1~2 nights after returning home, just showing nervousness about the change of environment.
The mood usually only lasts 1-2 days.
6. On the day of going home, only feed hay leaves and drink pure water. It is best to feed at a fixed point.
7. Pay special attention to their feces in the first week of going home and observe whether they urinate. The first two celestial poles
A few chinchillas may have mild constipation or red urine, usually starting on the third day.
Will return to normal, you can feed some fresh apples to help adjust.
8. Pay attention to the collocation of grain and grass when feeding on weekdays (feed grain one day and grass one day), and don't eat too much snacks.
Don't feed it for the first three days. Drink plenty of fresh water (don't feed it with raw water).
9. Grasp its tail roots or ears when grasping, and never squeeze its chest and abdomen. Of course, it is best to
Put your hands together.
10. Avoid running and chasing (pay attention in summer), and there are chinchillas for some reason.
When the cage jumps wildly, it should be controlled to avoid collision.
1 1. Wash fur with volcanic ash frequently to keep it clean and healthy (once every other day in summer and in winter.
Once a week in the season). When I first got home, I probably didn't take a shower because I was nervous, so I waited for 3~4 days.
Wash it again.
12. My neighbor totoro is a very powerful animal. If they have a minor illness, they will never show it easily.
Exposed, it will cover it up (this is because it is at the bottom of the food chain in the wild)
), so the owner should pay close attention to its health.
It's better to keep a dog at home ~ there are dogs barking all the time around ... my neighbor totoro will be afraid of it ~ ~
Besides, my neighbor totoro is different from hamster ~ It is a vegetarian .. Don't feed anything ~ ~
According to your conditions, see if you stay or not.
Which is better to keep, a cat or a chinchilla?
I think what kind of pet to keep depends on the owner's own schedule and living habits. I used to have a cat, and now I'm raising a chinchilla. I think I am more suitable for raising a chinchilla.
My neighbor totoro is very worry-free, as long as hay and food are fed well and water is hung in the kettle for them to drink. Cats eat more complicated than chinchillas, and sometimes they have to eat chicken liver and pig liver, which is not easier than chinchillas in feeding.
In terms of cleaning, my neighbor totoro can spend ten minutes cleaning cages and changing toilet seats every day. Everything is ready-made, not much is thrown away. I didn't like cat litter. Cat litter is more expensive than ordinary sand, and you can't put too little. Every cleaning is a pile. Unlike my neighbor totoro, I just need to grab two handfuls of Austrian sand and change them once a day. My chinchilla seldom uses it.
There is also the problem of hair. I can't stand cat hair everywhere in my house, because cats sleep on the floor. Unsanitary. Sometimes sitting down is just a hair. Totoro also needs to change its hair all year round, but because they are usually in cages, the flying hair is much lighter. Just vacuum it for a few days. It's easy to clean.
My neighbor totoro uses bath sand, and my cat needs to wash it. Besides, most cats don't like bathing. My family used to be miserable when taking a shower. ............
On the question of parasitic bacteria, cats must carry much more bacteria than chinchillas. The big ones are fleas. Totoro will never have fleas. At most, mites or fungi will infect it, make it shed, and will not infect humans. The biggest problem for cats is Toxoplasma gondii. Many pregnant women in the family give their cats away when they are pregnant. I think this is particularly hurtful.
Then there is the living habits of pets. My neighbor totoro is Nocturnal Animals. People with poor sleep should try not to keep it. It is noisy at night. But so is a cat. You can't keep it in a cage, ONZ. I was trampled by a cat several times when I slept at night. My neighbor totoro is chosen because it is easier to control, because it is independent and can play by itself, while cats are more clingy.
Therefore, if the owner likes to be close to small animals at any time, it is appropriate to keep a cat. If you need privacy and want to get close to your pet again, you'd better get a chinchilla. I can't stand pets having sex. My neighbor totoro is very good.
Are chinchillas easy to raise? How to raise it?
My neighbor totoro is very docile and lively. She likes to jump around, active and curious. She sniffs anything new before biting it down for research. Totoro belongs to plateau animals and is not easy to get sick. My neighbor totoro is clean and free of parasites. My neighbor totoro can take a bath by herself and spend the weekend by herself. There is no need to worry about taking care of it. Totoro's shit has no taste, so it's okay to put it indoors. My neighbor totoro's hair is soft and won't fall off everywhere. My neighbor totoro must be fed from an early age, so that when I grow up, my neighbor totoro will not be afraid of people, and my neighbor totoro will recognize a master and listen to his words.
Because the hair density of my neighbor totoro is very high, which is about twenty or thirty times higher than that of cats and dogs. Generally, cats and dogs have two or three hairs in one pore, but there are about forty or fifty chinchillas, and fleas can't survive on them (I don't know if they suffocate).
