    Not all chinchillas learn how to use a litter box. It is a skill best taught to chinchillas when they are very young. To start, put your chinchilla in a cage with bedding on the floor. When they urinate in an area, scoop up the wet bedding with a spoon and put it in the litter box. Put the litter box near the wet area. Keep putting all the wet bedding in the litter pan. When you have to change the litter and bedding, this time don't put bedding on the floor and take a scoop of the wet litter to save. Change the rest of the litter, then put the wet litter on the new litter. After a few months of this, your chinchilla should choose to go in its litter pan instead of elsewhere.

    • Hi. Got your message on the other thread. Picked this obscure thread if you wanted to talk. The questioner here hasn't been on in two years. I've had some problems giving my e-mail address out over the net so I really don't like to do that.
