    They have the softest fur. I had one. Very quirky personality. very independent . But once they bond with you...its takes a while... they are amazing. and they live much longer then other rodents. up to about 15 years!.

    They are sweet, but like most rodents if they don't like the company they will go on terminator mode.

    Yes, very cute very unique it’s very rare. I run into anyone who’s had or have a chinchilla or even knows what it is.

    I did not know this small animal that looks like a mouse but is far from being one.
