I was 14 when I got my first chinchilla. I was looking through pictures of my new pet, and decided she looked like a Charlie.
We picked her up and brought her home. I let her play. I gave her half a grape as a treat as we didn't have raisins. We became real close.
Than, one day I came home and saw a rat in her cage. I opened the cage to see if Charlie was fine, and realized it wasn't a rat, but a kit!
Than, I found another one! It turns out Charlie got pregnant before she came to her new home.
One of the kits were smaller than the other. (if being a new chinchilla owner wasn't scary enough, having 2 new babies made it a whole lot more stressful for a 14 year old!!)
Fatty, (The bigger kit) soon died a few days later.
It took forever to get over the loss of one of my new babies, as I'm sure it was for Charlie, also.
Soon, I got Mouse! My parents picked him up for me. Charlie & Mouse soon became very close, also.
Than came along Chico! the newest edition to our little jungle.
I ♥ my chinchillas!
By the way: Charlie is now a fur chewer. Any advice? Thanks so much!
Sorry, I don't understand how to post a picture. I'm new to this. Just thought I'd post a quick one to see how this works. :hmm:
