I think my friend's boyfriend's Chincilla bit me?

Question

I held the thing and he was soft and cute. But then I think he bit me. So I was just wondering if he did. I didn't say anything right away but a couple of days later, my finger was yellow.

Answer 1

Trust me, you would've been screaming and yelping if you got bit. Any bites from rodent like animals are VERY painful. They have blunt teeth, so not only do you have puncture wounds, you also have bruising around those puncture wounds because of the blunt teeth.

I would much rather get bit by a dog, cat, snake or other similarly sized carnivore then get bit by a large rodent..

Answer 2

I agree with Love my Lab.

If he bit you, you would know it!

So it's probably something else that turned your finger yellow

Answer 3

If he really bit you then you would know it. There would have been a cut and probably some blood.
