Just thought I would show off my four darling chinchillas.

The first guy is Pika (short for Pikachu). He's a VERY affectionate Standard Grey.

Once you meet a chinchilla, you are addicted for life. I PROMISE. lol

I feel so dumb.. what exactly is a Chinchilla?
It looks kind of like a rabbit but then kind of like a mouse.

They are pretty cute though!

They are super cute, but I can't help wanting a coat made of them. I know that is the most evil thing I can post on a site where we all love animals. But one time I tried on a leather coat that was lined with their fun and I fell in love with it. I could live in that coat. I would never take it off.

I'm sorry I'm such a meanie.

Your chinchillas are absolutely adorable!
Too darn cute.


A bit off topic, but a town near where I live is named Chinchilla... I guess they had a high chinchilla population at one time. (I haven't ever seen a tame, nevermind wild chinchilla though.)

They kinda look like a cross between a big hamster and a rabbit...LOL I have never petted an animal with softer fur. They are awesome
I have seen them in a pet store before.
