Chinchilla appreciation!

[Jamesthesilkie]

This is my chin, mr Rosie. He’s about 7yrs and is amazinggg. I also rescued a new chin a few months ago, his name is lucky.

I doubt anyone here has chinchillas but if you do post a pic of yours and share why you love them!

I love my chinchillas because they are non digital tv for me. Watching them bounce off the wall and jump on my bed entertains me very much

While I do not have chins at this time, I did raise them for a number of years; for a couple years in my classroom. They do make wonderful and entertaining pets. I wish I had pictures to share, or better yet, a video. Friday afternoon was dust bath day for the chins. It never failed to make everyone laugh and smile. And what a mess...that's why Friday; time to clean before Monday.

Haha I hate when I'm on craigslist Craigslist and search chinchilla and most results are the rabbits! But yes you get half a point for that. Rabbits are awesome

On the way to get him I told my husband I'm going to name him Chip. (Huge fan of Beauty and the Beast) Funny thing is on the way home I noticed he had a little chip out of his ear just like the little teacup!

This is when we just got him! Chip is on the left ear, but you can't see it.
