There are three kinds of chinchilla food: chinchilla food, alfalfa grass and ladder grass. These can be bought on Taobao. There is an online shop selling totoro products in Jinan. You can choose mail order, and the mail order freight in the province will not be very expensive. Don't buy too much food yet Every chinchilla has a different taste. I suggest you use a kind of chinchilla food and keep using it, because chinchilla's stomach is very fragile. If you change food frequently, it may not be digested. You can buy a little of everything, and then choose a taste that your chinchilla likes to eat and use it all the time. The main brands of Totoro food are Mazurui, Aibo, Kenworthy and Lux, among which Mazurui is recognized by Chinese people, but it is said that foreigners don't use this brand very much, mainly because it is oily, easy to absorb water and oxidize in the air, and has a bad taste; Aibo's is very good, suitable for most chinchillas; The other two have never used it. Totoro food and alfalfa can be fed alternately, that is, totoro food and alfalfa can be fed one day each, and Timothy can feed them once or twice a week. Before buying a totoro, you must first equip the cage with complete equipment. Main equipment: Totoro cage, kettle, springboard, vegetable basin, grass rack and wooden nest. I suggest you buy a 2-6-month-old chinchilla, because chinchilla knows its owner, and if it starts feeding as an adult, it may not be too close to you.

The following is a copy of my answers to other people's questions. You can selectively learn from:

1, it is best to ensure that the living environment of chinchillas is between 15 and 23 degrees, and it cannot be lower than 0,5 degrees for a long time, and it must never be higher than 28 degrees.

2. My neighbor totoro is timid by nature. Cat friends can let the cat smell through the cage first, please it with snacks, and then let the original owner take it out of the cage and give it to himself slowly. Totoro biting fingers is tentative. Cat friends must not panic and scare cats. Hehe, don't scare it. 3. When taking my chinchilla home, use a stable container and don't let my chinchilla roll around in a fixed circular container. The container should be as big as two chinchillas, with enough air holes around it. Be sure to put sawdust (to keep warm) and edible grass in the container (to prevent cats from biting the container when idle).

4. Totoro stays in temporary containers (such as cartons) for no more than 2 hours. I hope all cat friends can have healthy chinchillas that they like and like.

Matters needing attention

1 Summer is a very sad season for my totoro. Because my neighbor totoro's hair is thick, it's best to turn on the air conditioner to reduce the indoor temperature when the weather is sultry in summer.

Totoro cages should be placed in a cool and ventilated place, not in the air outlet. If my totoro is blown directly by the wind, it will catch a cold.

3 Usually you can please my neighbor totoro with a small amount of snacks and get close to it; But don't feed more, such as raisins, just feed 1 to 2 yuan a day. If I feed more snacks, it will not only make my chinchilla picky eaters, but also lead to long-term malnutrition, which is more likely to cause indigestion and diarrhea.

My chinchilla cage should be placed in a quiet place. If the surrounding environment is noisy, my chinchilla will not rest well because of nervousness.

When my neighbor totoro has just arrived at his new home, the owner should not rush to let it out. Let it stay in the cage for a while to get familiar with the new environment and new owner, and then let it play for a while. The time can be shorter first, and the space for play can also be smaller first.

Usually, when the owner is free, you can gently call the name of my neighbor totoro and talk to it. This will make my totoro remember its name and its owner's voice. It should be noted that you must speak kindly and don't scold it loudly, otherwise my neighbor totoro will only be afraid of you and won't come near you.
