Hi,
If you are a guest and want to post something. This is the Board to do it in. Most Boards don't allow guests to post at all, but we feel that you may want to try our Board out before you join. You may ask questions also.

Is this a new board? I think its the greatest thing I've ever seen. How novel and welcoming to allow a guest to try the board with a question and or a post or two.

Maybe this has always been in place and I was unaware.

This is genius.

Guests ,...there are great reasons to become a member. Remember we are free and there are things like personal stories in blogs that you dont see being a guest. Also ..
WE members dont have to suffer through those horrible fur ads that you see. We are completely ad free when you are a member.

Come and join us.

Thank you

Jamie

Hi Jamie,
Thank you. I just thought of it this morning. I felt that a guest might have some questions and want to try us out first. Yes, I forgot. Once they join, they will be free of ads, especially those horrible fur ads.

hi everyone I'm so happy my Mum said I can get a chinchilla!

I'm pretty confident I know how to care for him/her an we're looking to buy one soon! One question though; how long will it take for the chinchilla to let me pick him up?

Welcome Katie!
Well, Chinchillas are very different in their character - so it is also very different how long one needs to trust you.
If a Chin is already used to human hands (and had no bad experience before) it could be faster. Maybe you could think about (with your mom) to take a rescue.

Just be sure you AND your mum know all about them(so your mum dosent decide they are too much for you and here later, or ask you to do things that might hurt them). And, be sure to be patient. Some chinchillas don't really like to be held.
Have fun though!

Firstly welcome to LWOC!
Having other animals in the house is perfectly fine but it will depend on the animals temperaments, the chins included as to whether it could be a problem in the way of stress for the chins. Some chins don't give a hoot, others will stress out and even turn to fur biting. To avoid this possibility it is advisable to house the chins in a room out of bounds to the cats and dogs. This also guarantees the peace and quiet chins need for sleeping throughout the day.
I hope this helps in your decision
Sarah

Hi everyone,

I had a question. I just registered and it says my account is pending approval. How long does it take for the staff to pend my account? It's already been almost five hours. If you could let me know, that would be great. Thanks!
Also, I heard if you are under 18 you have to get parental approval or something? How does that work? Does the parent get a message or something if the kid signs up? My niece wants to sign up but her mom doesn't know how to do the parental approval thing. Thanks!
This forum rules!

Well, I'm a moderator, but someone will be along to approve you shortly

! I'm not sure about the permission thingy, again, someone who knows more will be here soon ! I waited less than a day to get approved when I first came on ! And I'm still very new to moderating, so I think I need to ask about this stuff, too :-[
