As a fellow pet owner I know that it can be tough to find information about chinchillas since they're not as popular as more traditional pets such as dogs, cats, and birds. My hope is that I've covered 90% of the information you need to raise your chinchilla so that it lives for a very long time.

Just so you understand my perspective, I'm not chinchilla breeder nor do I participate in shows. My chinchillas are our pets. Nothing more. But over the years I think we've learned a lot about their proper care and upkeep.

Please feel free to comment on any of the posts on Infolific. I welcome all comments and I'll do my best to answer any questions you pose. When I don't know the answer to something, I'll let you know. It's not my desire to trick you or to impress you. I just hope we can help.
