There is not any pine or cedar in the chinchilla area. They use yesterdays news for their pee pan and Oxbow pellets and Timothy Hay/Orchard grass for feed. There treats consist of vit C tabs, Papaya tabs, acidiphilus tab every now and then and a shredded wheat periodically. I can't think of anything else she would have become in contact with in their cage. Oh they do get balsa wood for treats to chew now and again. If I am spelling that right. I wonder how similar that is to pine.
hmm
