Posted August 26, 2007 Many of you - at some point - may have to administer eye drops to a chinchilla. I have had to take a photo of this procedure (to be published elsewhere) - but I thought I may as well post it here too - as Polie posed so patiently!! I hope it may be useful. I do not wrap chinchillas in towels to restrain them (just my own preference) - but instead, I hold the chin close to my body - facing outwards. With the same hand - I use my thumb to hold the eye open. With my free hand I give the required dose. I use a similar technique for giving oral medications.
