White ebony (silver) male chinchilla kit (baby) #1
--RPA carrier--
Born 4/7/24 -- 4 months old
**updated pics as of 7/17/24**
Very curious & friendly
Continually comes up to the front of the cage
Super sweet
Does great with handling and petting
Sits pretty calmly in your arms while you're loving on him
Great personality and pretty calm for his age!
$450 CASH / $495 CARD OR ELECTRONIC PAYMENT
White mosaic female chinchilla & standard grey *neutered* male chinchilla -- Mochi (female) & Maru (male)
--siblings--
Born 10/2016 -- 7.5 years old
Sweet chins!
Maru is the more outgoing one, Mochi is more shy and reserved
Maru will come right to the front of the cage to check everything out! Super friendly boy!
Both do decent with being handled and petted... Maru does better and prefers it more, whereas Mochi is more squirmy and moreso tolerates it
Previous home stated that both enjoy playtime!
Love their treats -- especially oats & hawthorn berries
Really enjoy shredding toys like bamboo shredders & willow balls
Both relatively easy to scoop up, though Mochi needs to warm up a bit before she comes out of her house
Adoption fee -- $350 CASH / $385 CARD OR ELECTRONIC PAYMENT
Standard grey male chinchilla -- "Chico"
--furchewer--
Born 2013 or earlier -- 11+ years old
**Chico can go to his new home with his decked out Double Critter Nation Cage (pictured) for an additional fee. If interested in Chico+his-cage-bundle, we will also throw in some additional ledges & goodies. Inquire for more info.**
**Chico takes awhile to settle into his new home, and has absolutely no issues with being intimidating, barking, and occasionally lunging at anyone in his space. He has never bitten, but he can definitely be intimidating. This boy is not appropriate for a home with children any younger than brave teenagers (if not all adults). Chico would likely do best in an adult-only hold that doesn't stress him out too much (we wouldn't suggest pairing him). He's already a fur-chewer when being left alone to his own devices, so let's not add to his stress!**
**Chico enjoys the occasional goji berry, hawthorn berries, and rosehips (which can be given much more frequently) and will snatch them right out of your hand!**
Not too difficult to pick up, assuming you are smarter than a 1-pound-ball-of-fluff-that's-acting-initimdating
Actually pretty sweet when you're holding him (you just gotta ignore the "before" behavior)
Will chill with you for short periods of time
Does enjoy scratches behind the ears!
Adoption fee -- $100 CASH / $110 CARD OR ELECTRONIC PAYMENT (not including cage)

**pictures and personality description updated on 5/13/24**
Curious and likes to check things out
Relatively easy to scoop up into your arms
Does alright with being handled and petted, just more on the active side
Likes to check you out while being handled
Sweet boy
Would probably enjoy an active home with playtime or maybe a wheel

Trio of brown velvet, beige, and white mosaic female chinchillas -- "Nova," "Lillith," & "Whiskey"
--minor furchewers--
Born May 26, 2022 (Nova) -- 2 years old
Born June 12, 2022 (Lillith) -- 2 years old
Born September 28, 2021 (Whiskey) -- (almost) 3 years old
Nova (brown velvet)
Friendliest of the trio
Relatively easy to scoop up into your arms
Curious but not overly active
Enjoys checking things out while being held, but settles down after a bit and will chill with you pretty nicely
Very sweet girl
Lillith (beige)
Middle-ground-personality
More reserved and a tad bit shy
Relatively easy to pick up into your arms
Will climb arm-over-arm while you're handling her
Likes to explore rather than just cuddle
Will chill for short periods of time, but more of an energetic furball
Whiskey (white)
Most energetic of the three
More nervous about being picked up and can sometimes be a tad bit difficult to get into your arms
Can be the escape artist out of the cage at times
Active personality
Adoption fee -- $500 CASH / $550 CARD OR ELECTRONIC PAYMENT
Standard grey female chinchilla -- 5R9 D1377 -- "Dee"
--retired breeder--
Born 7/7/2014 -- 10 years old
**don't let her age fool you, she is not slowing down**
**she nervous pees, so be prepared for a little (not a lot) of leakage as you go to pick her up, possibly some during playtime if you startle her as well**
Pretty chill and calm when in your arms
Chills well with you when you're handling her
May bark and express her displeasure when you are reaching to pick her up -- she has opinions, dontcha know?
Does really well with being handled and petted... just doesn't like the physical act of being picked up
Barks when you reach for her -- can't be intimidated by this big ball of fluff!
Sweet girl (when ignoring the barking)
$100 CASH / $110 CARD OR ELECTRONIC PAYMENT

--RPA carrier--
Born 4/7/24 -- (almost) 6 months old
Bouncy!
Spends lots of time on her back feet (like a kangaroo)
Looks like a little white kangaroo bouncing all over the place!
Reallllly wanted to get out of the light-box
But as far as personality...
Relatively easy to scoop up into your arms
On the active side, and moves around when being held
LOVES to check things out
NO FEAR of people or anything for that matter
Very outgoing
Will come up to the front of the cage to see you, the dog, the monster under the bed... over and over again!
Very friendly... and very energetic
