His toys

Awwwww that chin is so cute. And the little hamster's nose! I remember when I had hamsters- they were so lovely.

I love all the toys too :D

Helen, I just didn't have the money to start up. I had got a really really good deal on a huge bulk order of items..but then they never shipped it to me! So I had to put a claim through paypal.
The problem is, types of wood besides pine is really expensive. Like apple, cottonwood, elm, ect...most of it isn't available in AZ either. It costs me about $60 for only 5lbs..which trust me isn't a lot. My chins go probably trhough a pound a week (Which is why I stick to pine then supplement it with other chew toys)

I calculated the cost..it would take me probably about $250 to start, and I simply don't have that money. I wanted to make cheap toys; not the same expensive toys everyone is paying for.

Hopefully later on I can start up again.


Jynx is the female Chinchillas name..I don't think I can tell you guys how sweet she is. She dosesn't mind being held, will come to you, and is just a huge cuddle muffin!
She just puts my casanova to shame!

Last night, Chewy and Anakin where in their cage...sleeping together on th edge of the cage, fur poking out..
And Kinobe decides to sleep with them from the outside of the cage! It was sooooo cute!
 
Would you consider making the bunnies into a trio after they are all fixed?

Congrats on the new chin. She's cute and it's awesome that she's so sweet too.
 
Yeah, I may. I am trying to schedule Kinobes nueter, but I am about two seconds away from breaking up with James (loooong story..but basically I had enough) unless something happens RIGHT NOW that changes.
 
I love your chins! Very much!

& I'm sorry about you and James, I hope you all work out, if it is meant to be that is.
 
beautiful chins! my first was a standard that i rescued from outside someones house, my second a mosiac. they weren't really the right kinda pet for me, but they were amazing little creatures!!!
 
Thanks everyone. It did get better, then this morning it is back to where it was. I swear after all the times he has broken my trust, he still talks to me like a child.
If we break up, and he moves out, I have to get a second job, and honsestly this will be the first time I have lived completley alone in my life.

When we broke up in Dec..the lonliness of the apartment was outstanding. I didn't know how to deal with it.

I just don't know how to be strong and leave. Which is amazing, because everyone tells me how strong I am, and I know I am because of all the things I have in fact been through.

And I still love him dearly, and think there is a chance if he were just to wake up and realize what he is doing.

I really don't want to post what he has done..but Amy knows just a tinsey winsey bit..but overall the realtionship has been filled with him doing things to break my trust..bording the edges of cheating...ect ect.

I would appreciate any strong words or advice.

Sometimes I feel really done, and ready to leave, othertimes (Like right now) he will be nice again.

I also have what I call a "old heart" meaning I stick through to the end...I believe there is a reason why most people divorce and it is because they don't stick it through.

I am just at ends, you know?
 
I think you have to do what feels right to you. I've never been in a particularly great or strong relationship- just never found a guy that I've wanted to be with for longer than a year, or ever found a guy that I could love with all my heart. Everyone I have been with has been...not good really- so I can't understand how hard it is to be going through what you are.

All I can say is you need to be happy. Think of your life without James, and your life with James now. It may be hard at first, but will it be the right choice to leave? Perhaps a few years down the line you will be so glad that you had that courage. But then again, do you stick it out, even through the tough times, and then a few years later be thrilled you stuck it out?

To be honest, from the little you have told me, it sounds like James has some changing to do. If he's not prepared to do that, then maybe you are not prepared to keep being let down and hurt.

I really hope you sort this out, whether it means leaving, or sticking it through.

Have you sat down and told him all this, thoroughly? Perhaps say to him that this is the last chance. If he doesn't change, or isn't prepared to change, then it's time to leave it, because you can't be happy this way.

We have talked about it multiple times..but sometimes he is just a foolish boy. Things are ok at the moment. Were going to hang out with his friend who is town, but unfortunatly there will be another girl there that is practially in love with James and likes to flirt with him (Even though I know she has no chance..)

Roller Derby try outs are tomorrow and I am nervous about them too.

Eek.
 
Things are definatly better..I mean a lot. Last night was great, a good day I have been waiting for.

I called Friday to set a nueter for Kinobe, and it was just my freaking luck that they are booked this week. I really don't want to go anywhere else because it is so expensive. And it is frustrating, because I was suppossed to get him nuetered early, but now it looks like he will be nuetered the same time as I originally planned.

James said he would work on the cage tomorrow or tuesday..I don't know if he wil lstick to that mainly because it is finals week, but I hope he does.

I want to make it 5 NIC panels long by 2 wide..the top section will be kinobes cage and the bottom Chewys and Anakins.

I want to keep Kinobe free roam, but it is hard because he hasn't learned to poop in the litterbox, and James generally dislikes it. I hope however once we nueter him, and he becomes potty trained, he will allow it.

The new chinchilla is doing great. She is such a little angel.

I found someone on craigslist who has a 10 gallon and hood for only $10, but I forgot to email him back and I am afraid it is gone. Let's hope not!

The problem is, I don't have a filter/heater or anything for the 2nd 10 gallon tank, so I am going to have to wait awhile until I can afford it.

I reallly, really miss having chiclids after seeing all my old photos. So I have been keeping an eye out for complete sets on Craigslist that are super cheap..but I know it has to be at the bottom of my priority list.

I used to be so into fishtanks and the upkeeping..now I am lazy, lol.

I thought both of the female leopard geckos would lay this weekend but they haven't...the super snow looks like she is going to explode, lol.
 
I am so nervous for try outs, I think I am going to throw up.
I literally feel ill. I can't remember the last time I felt this nervous. It is horrible.

UGH
 
OK, I just read from page one, to page twenty-six! Whew! :D Love all the photos! I think Valentine is my favorite out of all of your pets. :) Good luck with try outs tomorrow!
 
Well guys, I didn't make it. It was really no surprise..6 girls who made it where from other teams out of state.
And I did pretty bad..I don't know if it was nerves or what, but also they had us do some excersises that were just plain for well trained derby girls. Everyone who made the team was already game ready..no room for beginners.

I am trying not to get upset about it..now I know what to practice for and hopefully I can try out next time.

Took the Chins out for playtime..the first time since Romeo. I just couldn't, but I felt awful they were not getting play time. So they all got an hour. It went well, and I am glad.

Like everyone else, I am stressing about papers I procrastinated on for finals also. I got one down, another one to go, and have to study for math for tomorrow.

So, Jynx, the girl chinchilla came with a cage. My cage was bigger, so I obviously put her in that one.

The cage she came with is exactly this one:

I am going to ask Ren, but I think I want to put the parakeets in the cage. The bar spacing is a little large, but I don't think they could even try to squeeze out.

I think it is super roomy for 2 winged clipped Keets..I am going to add lots of branches for them to hop around on.

I guess my worry is just bar space.
