They come in a variety of colors and sizes

They can be tough

They drink from a straw just like people

They’ll sit right on your shoulder without complaint!

They can fit in tiny spaces and love to hide (even in plain sight)

“I am not to be pointed at!”

Oh Hai!

Here’s one taking its first baby steps

Circus Chinchilla can balance on anything!

But mostly they’re fuzzy sweetie pies

They’re photogenic

While still fitting in the palm of your hand

Some are on diets (good job!)

And some aren’t (this is Festive Chinchilla, brother to Christmas Mouse)

They’re affectionate to one another

And can be as lazy as any cat

Oh Hai again!

Chinchillas on the rocks

They can be sad

And they can get along with others

Do Not Disturb

Some are thoughtful

But they’re probably just thinking about food

They can also be lewd if they’ve had too many almonds…
