My story

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

Hetero beige female chinchilla -- "Pangchin"
--furchewer--
Born approx. 11/2016 -- 7 years old

**Pangchin was brought in when her owners were moving out of the country and were sadly not able to take her with them.**

Please read:
Pangchin is one of those chins that likes things done on her terms. If you do things on her terms... she will love you forever (maybe). When you reach for her, she will chitter and chatter and talk at you. She will protest and grumble until the cows come home... but she actually is very sweet and doesn't bite / spray or anything like that (maybe she just enjoys hearing herself talk?). We chitter back to her... and then proceed to scoop her right up. She can definitely be handled and petted, and she does rather well with handling and petting... once you get past that barking exterior. She doesn't love handling per se....but what she REALLY wants and loves is scritches (again, on her terms). Now, if you go to give her scritches, she may initially bark and chitter at you... but then when she realizes she's getting scritches... she melts (see picture). We're pretty sure that scritches are the way to winning her over.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Our adoption process requires all of our potential homes to read our care packet and fill out an adoption form. The care packet talks about the care and needs of the specific animal the home is looking to adopt. The adoption form asks questions about the type of home the animal will be going into, what type of cage will be used, what type of food the animal will be fed, and so on - questions to verify that the pet will be cared for well in its new home. There is no application fee with our rescue, the only fees are the adoption fees for the pets.

Go meet their pets

Visiting our adoptable animals requires an appointment. To make an appointment with us, give us a call 219-789-0026. The rescue is run out of our house, so we are not always home for someone to view the animals. We are home most afternoons/evenings, and people are welcome to come visit then (after having called and set up an appointment).

More about this rescue

I am Ashley Gajda and I am the "owner" (if it could even be called that) of the rescue. I opened this rescue because I hated to see small pets without homes, and wanted to help. We opened the rescue in 2003 with very few cages, but have since expanded and now take in a variety of small animals and have plenty of spare cages. It is just me running the rescue, so I'm always looking for volunteers to help with whatever needs it at the time.
