Blaine's Story
Blaine was a transfer from a large Chicago Shelter and it has taken him a while to get healthy enough for adoption! He had a skin infection when he arrived and also has chronic dental disease. The infection is all gone but he will likely always have problems with his teeth. Because his teeth grow crooked, he requires a dental trim by the vet 2-3 times a year. He also doesn't eat as much hay as a normal chinchilla so he needs special attention to his diet to make sure he doesn't eat too many cookies and get too chunky, all he wants to eat is pellets and cookies. It is important to not give a dental chinchilla too many soft foods as they are more prone to GI stasis due to the lack of hay. It is still important to offer him hay.<br/> Blaine makes up for his high-maintenance nature by how friendly and sweet he is. Many chinchillas don't love to be touched but Blaine will happily get scritches and pets. He does not like to be picked up, though!https://www.lostwoodsas.com/adoption-application
