My story

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

Meet Chewy and Chili! The dynamic duo! These guys are awesoooommme! They came from a home that ended up allergic to them! They were well loved and well treated! They looove coming to the cage door for treats!!! They are so fun to interact during treat time! They love all kinds of treats! Chinchilla treats, shredded treats, rose petal treats, bee pollen treats, and chewing wood treats! They also love their dust baths and are sooo cute during them! Due to the allergy, they weren't held all of the time, so the current foster home will work on holding them more. Chili tends to be more relaxed in the holding process. Specifics on each boy will come next. BUT.....these two boys have adjusted to life in a home with a toddler beautifully! They would make great pets in a family that will spend time teaching them that being held is a time of warmth and comfort. We do not permit our toddler to hold them here. They will need a calmer introduction to holding than a young child can provide.

Chili details: Chili's official birthday is Christmas eve and he is turning 5 this year! He has a chip on his ear because he came from a breeder. This helps to tell the boys apart easily. He originally came from a family that had a 13 year old that ended up not wanting him. His second home became allergic to him. He is the calmest of the two. He does enjoy being held cuddled up next to your chin briefly. He loves to relax in his hammocks and wood cube lounger. He loves the shredded treats and rosehip the most! But he will eat all of his treats gladly!

Chewy details: Short for Chewbacca because he barks!!!! He barks when frustrated but he also just barks when he feels like it! It is a hoot to hear! He is estimated to be 1 year old. His birthday lingers somewhere between January and March each year. He also will eat alllll of the treats, but he loves green cheerio looking chinchilla treats, bee pollen, and rosehip treats! He is more of a wiggler when being held and will bark to be put down. Both boys are fast, so if they get loose...use the dust bowl and wait for Chewy to come use it to grab him. He loves the wheel the most!
