My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

We have a mosaic male chinchilla that is looking for his new home. He came to NWI a bit ago, and we estimate he was born 7/20/2015. This makes him right around 4 months old, and now is a great time for him to go to his new home and bond with his new family.

This male’s color is called mosaic. He is more of a silver mosaic, as he has somewhat of a silver coloration over most of his back and body. He has a few lighter and darker spots as you can see in the picture, and the tip of his tail is white.

This male is very energetic. If you get him excited, he sometimes does laps around his cage! He actually does just fine with being handled and petted, though he would probably enjoy spending playtime with you, so he can let some of this energy out! He does settle down when you hold him, though you can still tell he is curious, as he looks around and is still checking out his surroundings. He can be talkative, and sometimes will talk to you when you are petting him. He doesn’t bite.

This chinchilla is currently living alone, and we do not know if he gets along with other chinchillas. If you are curious as to whether he might get along with your, or one of our, chinchillas, let us know and we’ll see what we can do.

This chinchilla would make a good “first chinchilla” for someone who’s never had chinchillas before.

This chinchilla will come with some food to start you out (2 pounds of Tradition pellets), a goodie bags of chews/treats, and a printed out version of our care packet. He will also come with a lifetime of help and support, should you ever need it. If more supplies are needed, we also sell a variety of chinchilla supplies, from cages to hidey houses to hammocks and everything in between.

Regardless of past chinchilla experience, all potential homes will be asked to read our chinchilla care packet, fill out our adoption application/chinchilla questionnaire, and provide proof of cage. If you are unwilling to do these things, please do not waste our time or yours. No chinchilla will go to a new home without an adoption application being filled out - no exceptions.

This chinchilla is located in Hammond, Indiana (zip code 46324). Sorry, but we do not ship.

This mosaic male would normally be $175, but due to our Fall Fiesta sale, his adoption fee is now discounted to $150. Must be picked up or have deposit put down by Nov. 30.
