    ALWAYS make sure your cage is locked/shut completely because somehow mine wasn't last night (even though i KNOW i closed it) and my black chin escaped 😅 Found him upstairs in our office, he went on a whole adventure, exploring every room on both floors including the bathtub LOL

      Mine did that when I was at my dads house (my mum didn’t shut it properly) and they ate my whole room 😂 AND then my mum just had to blame ME for the room when I wasn’t even in the same town - let alone house. Plus it wasn’t exactly my fault that I was at my dads house considering that’s what they agreed on for about ten/eleven years

    My husband and I both often work until late, so our chin's activity schedule is ideal with us! When we get home around 9-12, we are just as awake as he is and we all have some playtime. We affectionately refer to our little family as vampyres and named our little boy Nosfüratu

    Here’s something I’ve learned for my experience,
    It is very hard when they die, I’ve been through it 2 times this year, they are very fragile,
    If you have young siblings, make sure that you watch them while they are playing with your chinchillas,

    Just some tips for people: a few ways to make cleaning dramatically quicker are: 1) take out the middle floor, 2) use a handvac instead of a brush and dustpan (I use a Bissell for pets), and 3) use ledges that have guards on them. Thanks to these tricks, my daily and weekly cleaning time have gone down exponentially. When I took out the middle floor, I noticed that Momo didn't go up to the corner perch or hanging hideout I put up there, but once I put a towel over the top of the cage to make it a little darker, he sleeps up there now. If you take out the middle floor, do keep in mind about falling - I put a bridge in the middle to catch him just in case. Lastly, I put pee pads under the fleece for those times when he doesn't go in his litter box. I'm down to 5 minutes a day and maybe 15 minutes for the weekly cleaning which is down from 15 minutes a day and almost an hour for the weekly cleaning (and way less mess under the cage!)

    Chinchillas don't necessarily need another chinchilla as long as they can get social interaction between them and their owners.
    Also when it comes down to it chinchillas aren't that expensive, I lived through poverty (barely able to feed myself) and managed to still keep my baby happy and healthy, the situation was out of my control and had no other options but we had access to good quality food that was made for chinchillas that was uber expensive (£2.99 even now we've moved to Sweden (she did a 3 hour flight in cargo recently too) I'm still planning to keep her on that British food) I also got good suitable toys for rather cheap at the pet store the only time this wasn't the case was when I was burgled June last year and the people stole her toys because they couldn't get her. I'm a ferm believer that pets are for life and so their needs come over my own, things are way better than they were last year but it is possible to provide for chinchillas even when you're literally in poverty (the government agence actually told me that I was due to my income as an under 25) picchu was what kept me going day to day during the literal worst year of my life and now I have finally gotten her to Sweden she'll see me through some of the best years of my life, she's an amazing floof and was worth every penny to keep her with me (nearly £3000 to get her to Sweden and a huge huge panic attack on the plane as she's been my unofficial support animal over the last five years) I couldn't give her up when I was struggling to eat but her bowl was always full, toys always available and plenty of social time with me and the other people that would come to see her, picchu is my best friend and she's really bonded with me to the point when we finally picked her up and I got to check on her after the flight she ran straight onto my lap and let me hug her (which she doesn't allow often) she didn't even glad or try to run anywhere else, humans can build super strong bonds with chinchillas.

      I'm so grateful that you were able to keep your precious pet and support animal by your side. Also I like how you explain how you did it during a financial crisis you experienced. Please keep in mind that a lot of young people as well as children follow this channel. They have no control over what their parents are willing to do or spend on such an exotic pet. For that reason I'm glad she pointed out the very real responsibility that comes with a Chin. Also keep in mind some people don't have your commitment to doing the right thing no matter the challenges they might face. I hope your future looks up from now on. I hope you receive my message in the gentle, kind, and humble way it is intended. Please pet your very special floof for me!🙂

    Here in Brazil it’s kinda hard to find great chinchilas toys and stuff and when you find it’s very expensive. I payed lots of money in them (they’re from a breeder like Zorro). I absolutely agree with everything you said, there are very expensive pets and live many many years. I hope people start realizing that BEFORE they get their chins. I always see adds of chins that are for sale because their previous owners got bored or didn’t want to take care of them anymore, that’s very frustrating.

    We just got our chinchilla yesterday and Nitro was for free, no clue why, but he came with his large cage and some of his toys and a tunnel and bath and food bowl etc but love him and the bonus is that since we spend no money on him and his cage we can spoil him more with toys and get him better things with the money we could've initially spent on the animal and his cage!! Absolutely love him, sweetest thing ever, he did come alone though and i was told he is too old to be introduced to a partner so that's a shame but he's cute enough for two just by himself

Have you noticed a change in the hay? Or is it just me? I want to try something new but I'm not sure what else to get. They also eat the same oxbow pallets in the red bag like yours.

  • @SailorYuki
    @SailorYuki 8 місяців тому

    Chinchillas are a great pet for anyone who's allergic to other pets, like I am. Unfortunately, they do require a lot of hay and if you're allergic to pets, you're most likely also allergic to hay. That was a tough perdicament to be in. I put my Chillas needs before my own comfort, but it was so annoying when all they did was pee in the hay and not actually eat it.
    So keep that in mind whe you get your pets for allergy reasons, you might be allergic to their food and supplies. If you're unable or unwilling to provide all the things a pet requires for optimal health, don't get a pet.
    Both my boys lived to be around 12 years old. I miss them a lot even if it's been 15 years.

    I’ve been really interested in getting a chinchilla and was thinking about getting two because they live in groups right!?

I have one and he is really friendly.

    • @emmacoughlin11
      @emmacoughlin11 2 роки тому

      Hey I know you wrote this a while ago and you might know the answer to your question already but this is just for anyone else who is wondering :) So yes, most chinchillas need to or are better living in pairs, although some, (like Merlin) get aggressive or territorial around other chinchillas and therefore are sometimes better living alone. It would be just fine to have 2 chinchillas in the one cage that is 2 levels or more, unless they are in the process of bonding, if they are I would probably only have them in the same cage with supervision and two cages next to each other would be the best option until they are bonded.For the cat question, Obviously don’t take the chinchillas out of the cage with a cat in the same room or with access to the room. Even though having a cat around the cage could make them really stressed, at some point they will realize that they are safe in their cage and the cat can’t get to them so they will probably get used to them.
      I hope this helps!

    My local pet store only has one Chinchilla in stock, so what do you suggest I do alternatively? And moreover, because I'm a med student, I don't think I can afford two Chinchillas, whilst on student budget, haven't got the funds for two, only one

    Hi! I have two chinchillas that are sisters who share a cage and they are both about to turn one. For their birthday I was going to purchase a bigger cage and I was just wondering where you got your from. Thanks :)

    Any advice on how to help a Chin adjust from always having a cage mate to not having one? One of my chins is very sick and I don't know if she'll be around much longer. My second chin is fine but I don't know how I can help her adjust.

      It’s best not to have cats around the cage. Chinchillas may not show their fear or stress but it doesn’t mean it isn’t there. Chinchillas are naturally prey animals that can sense predators💕

I'm going to save this video to send to people interesting in them during their rehoming process. Thank you!

    Chinchillas are expensive but there is ways to make it a lot lesss expensive at no expensive to the chinchilla you can buy cages on offer up for like 20$ that are the same size as a critter nation cage you can buy all used supplies the toys can be so cheap or even diy and their food is so cheap you can buy hay in bulk and there pellets can also be bought in bulk and the chinchilla themselves can be given away for free mine was completely free some chinchillas are 400$ but I’d you just look for a resuce group they will be 0-100$
