I wanted a chinchilla..now I’m reconsidering

[thunderquillradio]

And this why I'm loving YOUR chinchillas instead of getting some of my own. Still, it's really tempting. THEY'RE SO CUTE!

The second I learned chinnies don't wanna smuggle, I went for a rabbit instead.
Every pet is perfect, but not every owner is perfect! Great job taking care of them.

Thank you for sharing the urgent reality of owning chinchillas. I had to Summer my sister's Chinchillas on year because she couldn't get her house cool enough. She also had real Marble slabs for her Chillers to lay on because Marble stays cooler than the actual room temp. It helps bunches. Thes are very sensitive creatures with super specific needs that have to be met! They don't do well being overly handled and they will literally throw hair off if they are stressed. She obviously takes excellent care of her Chillers but they are Not for everyone & this video is very factual & accurate. They require specific food, specific amounts, very few snacks, volcanic ash to dust/ bath themselves in, very cool temps, low stress, very clean cages, etc. Please read up on many sites for care before considering buying one. 💕🐭

Me a cat owner: Why does this feel way to familiar

[-themightymittens-]

They're like fluffy cat mice with their attitudes lol

[benevolentworldexploder]

Can confirm all of these. We affectionately referred to our chins as "hateful little creatures".

A Chinchilla in a humid environment is like jumping into a swimming pool with all your clothes on and expecting not to get wet

[wintendoatmeal]

the artic one is relatable asf, i love cold weather

[redbamboozone]

Cause we stan an animal that teaches us to respect boundaries😆

[LittleLulubee]

Oh, I never knew they need cool temperatures! But I just read that if they’re in hot or humid weather, they can get sick and DIE 💔😭 Important info for anyone thinking of getting one!

[JennyNobody]

Oh God chinchillas and aquariums when the power goes out…

[taylorinvancouver]

You’re such a good pet owner..I wish everybody treated their pets with such respect and love🥹💖💖💖

PSA they live about 20 YEARS.
DO NOT GET A CHINCHILLA WITHOUT BEING 100% CERTAIN YOU WILL DEDICATE THE NEXT 20 YEARS TO LOVING AND CARING FOR IT.
If that's not the type of person you are, and the chinchilla will end up neglected or surrendered to a shelter or new owners, GET A DIFFERENT PET.

Those chinchillas are like, "Can you just...not...?"

If you need reliability, get rid of the nest stat. Something like an ecobee or honeywell T6 will give you all the same features, but the thermostat won't glitch out on you nearly as often. Seasoned HVAC contractor, those things are junk and cause nothing but issues.

It’s like a cat, yet softer, more complicated, and after your soul :3

Living in the artics sounds like a plus for me, I like the cold
