I
got Sid last Christmas when his old family no longer has the time to
care for him. He is my third chin, the first two hate being scratched so
it was great to find out that there is nothing Sid loves more than a good
rub behind the ears! Sid is very vocal, when he sees me visiting with the
other chins he starts to buzz and beep and make all kinds of noises,
jumping around the cage until he gets attention. When he is out playing he
can even sound like he is laughing, especially when I am trying to
convince him to return to his cage! He is very outgoing, when we first got
him he used to get upset if we touched his tail or back but now he is fine
with it and as soon as I open his cage door he tries to literally leap
into my arms!
Sid is living alone at the moment, we did attempt to introduce him to my
other two chins but it didn't go well so now I am waiting for the perfect
baby chin to come along to hopefully be his cagemate. Until then, he will
continue to enjoy lots of extra love and attention from me.
