Haha! I knew Charm couldn't possibly be the only one! I always felt bad that I made her so miserable because she wanted to be "wild and free!" So I've been building up an amazing cage for her but to no avail.

what a wonderful coincidence you were there to help save him :) Who knows what would have happened if the owner hadn't come in to surrender? :(

I'm 21 and have had a chin since July of this year lol. I decided I wanted a chin 7 years ago but got a guinea pig instead. He's actually still alive but my mom kept him when I moved out and has now formed an attachment to him :P All three of us (my self and 2 sisters) each own a chinchilla so...

One spoiled brat for me :)

Beautiful babies! Congrats :)

Ah, never thought to check the bird department LOL. I'll have to see if they are available when I take a trip there this weekend. Thanks everyone :)

I have a plush in Charm's cage that she grooms and sleeps on top of. She also likes to drag him all over the cage. She once dragged him up to the top shelf. I'm not exactly sure how since I don't have ramps. Haha, she's a silly girl.

I checked Petsmart but they didn't appear to have them. Is this something you have to order online? i'd love more information about where to find them and how much they typically cost.

Chins are all different, just like people. :) My chin hates being held. She prefers to use me as a giant jungle gym but the moment I actually try to hold her she runs back to her cage. She's a brat and I love it :P

Doesn't get better than that :) a treat for you and your chinnies wooh!

Charm did that the first and second day we got her so we had to put this chicken wire type thing around the cage. It was so much fun keeping up with her but 3 weeks later and she's finally unable to squeeze her fat butt through the bars.

How old are they? So cute :)

I named Charm while halfway through the last Harry Potter book. It was originally going to be Caprice after my husbands favorite type of car but it didn't fit her.

I adopted my chinchilla roughly 3 weeks ago when she was 12 weeks old. Her owner has offered to let me have her mother now since she doesn't have time with her new baby. I was wondering if I needed to do introductions differently or will it still need to be done slowly in seperate cages? Will...

Is there such thing as a "dirty bellied" standard? I spent a few hours trying to capture a picture of her belly but absolutely nothing came out of it that was worth posting. Her belly isn't white, it's light grey. It's lighter than the rest of her but it's definitely not a contrasting white like...

I forced the husband to look through all of your amazing designs and now he's very excited to get a FN. He says we're going to Home Depot this weekend to start making shelves. He wasn't even interested in Charm but now he's nominated himself her interior decorator :)

I've got a massive tree in my yard. My sister has four trees in her yard and my mother has close to a dozen in hers. Looks like I'll be able to make plenty from them all :) Maybe even package some up and give to my sister for her chinchilla :P

You are being silently cursed at in that second one :P

Okay I'll try :) She's so fast! It's nearly impossible for pictures of her to not be a fuzzy blur. Picturres just don't do the justice of the full level of cuteness though! Like when she wipes her nose after a dust bath? swoon!

I have two german shepherd mixes and a purebred german shepherd. When I brought Charm home they were curious about her and for a few days they wanted to stay close to their cage. Charm being my little brave girls showed no fear towards them and now will come up to the cage to greet them (even...
