Cute

What happened? Why did he stop?

DIY Rowan I am so glad to hear that! 😊

No Problem

How I want one but my parents won’t let me

@@samanthaseibert7371 I’d recommend getting two unless the vet advised you most rodents are happier in groups

@@samanthaseibert7371 it might work for them but might not work for you. It all comes down to what your parents originally think of them and how you tell them about it.

5hallsLYKKK No problem! Glad I could help!😊

your son is lucky 🤣🤣

Jesus loves you pray to god!!

RacoonGreg I’m so glad to hear that. Yes, some days I feel like he’s more of a burden than a joy and every time I need to stop myself and take a step back I remind myself how privileged I am to own him. 😊

RacoonGreg That’s how I am with my guinea pigs

jeff goldbloom Yes, you are completely right. Chinchillas are not just cats or dogs that you can leave to roam alone all day. They need to be well taken cared of and watched. And I’m so glad I can help others out there with the proper way to do all that😊💕

Adyson M 🤣😭

🤣🤣🤣 i realized that too.. haha!

i dont get it ... what does she mean ?

You beater post some vids bro

CJ Gelardo 😝

CJ Gelardo IM DYING

Lol

Jadelyn George dang

Keira Dermody that’s rediculous tbh

Jadelyn George wow. I adopted mine and he was $70 which included the wheel. Thats so expensive

Jadelyn George that’s honestly ridiculous even if you got it from a breeder or something because the highest price I’ve seen was 150 but I got mine for 80

I got mine from a chinchilla rescue center and I got two for $20.

Foxie TheWolf Sorry, I've been keeping my eyes out for that and it's never happened to Merlin, thankfully, but I'm sorry I can't help!

I have experience with that if you would like some info.

Sarah Travis 1. I’ve never had a girl but I’ve been told it doesn’t really matter. 2. A good place is a breeder or rescue (but if you don’t have those options within hours of home a pet store is the last place you can go to. I don’t recommend it but it’s a choice. Also you can try looking up ads for chinnies online in your area) 3. Chinchillas are usually mostly sleepy in the day time so it’s totally okay if you leave for most of the day. Just make sure to give them playtime at night or early morning😉💕

Ok thanks

Nathalie & The Bunnies 1. Usually I recommend being a few years older than that. They are not very good for children and often they get bored fast since most Chinchillas dislike being held. 2. There is only one breed in domestication, which is the long tailed chinchillas😊 3. You cannot have Chinchillas in a cage with any other animal species, especially rabbits who have to have a completely different cage set up. 4. Treats can be given a few times a week. Just sparingly. 5. Let them out in a safe, chin-proofed room and supervise them carefully

The Chinchilla Notebook okay, thank you! i’ll try to have adult supervision most if the time. tell merlin i said hii :3

Danelle Squad101 Oh really? Maybe not all of them, it’s just that every place that I’ve seen a rabbit, well cared for too, they smell just a bit. But I can be wrong 😊💕

The Chinchilla Notebook Oky but loveeeeee ur vids and can’t wait for my w chinns💖 but only getting them in 7 weeks😫

2 chinns*

Danelle Squad101 That’s awesome! Can’t wait for you to get them, I’m sure they’ll be lovely 😉💕

Actually rabbits are VERY clean. Its just their poop & pee that smells... if their fur smells that isn't right.

Logan Manetta It’s the Critter Nation model 162💕

I litterly had to sweep 3 times today lol

bianca logan Aww thank you!💕

lindsey paputa Not sure actually 🧐🤷‍♀️

The Chinchilla Notebook ok thx

Confused Marshmallow Not sure. There might be hypoallergenic dust. But don’t take my word for it cause I’m not 100% sure but maybe if you search it up you might be able to find some💕

Confused Marshmallow i don’t know maybe you could go in a different room and have your parents do it but i don’t have a chin ive just done some reserch

i’ve seen people use corn starch, but i’m not 100% because i don’t have one :)

olive stinnett no because it would be imbedded in the fur

kira the hyeana I’m having the same problem 😓

Ferrets are more fun, coming from someone who has had both chinchillas and ferrets.

Typical Teen the tables have turned I’m getting a cockatiel next week my sister isn’t to fond of small fuzzy cuteness I can’t say why but hey I’m still happy 😊

Yo you sould get a chinchilla ferrits stinks and if they get scarred they can bite your finnger off

Ferrets are more active and run around and play with you.

DerpyCherry Soda That’s nice though! They can be very expensive 😌

DerpyCherry Soda i really wanna know

DerpyCherry Soda OMG same ! I got lucky yesterday & got 2 for free WITH all the supplies. Lit 🔥😁 and I’m loving mine so far they’re so much fun.

you probably shouldn't give them more than 3-5 SMALL ones at any given time but definitely don't give them to him/her every day, 2 times a week minimum

Bengal Cat you should give a treat maybe once or twice a week

Strictly one treat once a week.

hermit crab boy Time It’s best to have two. If not then try to find one that prefers to live alone or needs to live alone 💕

Dave Dickinson It depends on whether you’re ready and if you’re up for the responsibilities💕

rhune schiepers You need to make a fleece liner for the cage. A pillow-case style that slips over the pan and tucks in is ideal💕

Do research. I'm also about to get 2. I'm currently In the research phase. I would recommend buying a big informative book on chinchillas. I am currently reading the ultimate chinchilla care book. Its jam packed with info about what they need, what the products are called etc. I also recommend making a rough list of what products you can buy and calculate the price. I wish you luck

I mean not really but it might be irritating

berkley beard No. sand is definitely the one that’s bad. Its too rough and coarse on their fur and it’s damaging. Dust is the way to go😌

​@@TheChinchillaNotebook thank you so much I actually just finished watching one of your videos where you mentioned that I love your videos so much and they help me a lot on caring for my chinchilla and you even inspired me to start my own KZfaq channel

Gazel Girls Those are great deals!

They most definitely can. Ive owned quite a few.

Oh they do

They really smell

They only smell if you don't clean up after them...their urine smells ..not them.

Susan Jones you must not be cleaning up after them

Cameron mason Here’s a video💕 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/f9qSiKSCtbKVd6c.html

They might be a little scared but you should keep them in a room where they can bearly hear. But yes that is fine

Prototype .-. Um...no

Sharon Hudson btw she has said her chinchilla can’t be living with others and yes she is already aware that they are very social animals

Guyroo 5 Actually, all the bad wheels are plastic. Don't buy anything from any pet stores because the Chinchilla labeled wheels are not only plastic, but far too small. The wheel needs to be at least 15 inches in diameter and wooden or metal. I have a video on Good And Bad Chinchilla Wheels you should watch. Also, carefresh isn't a good choice because it is paper based and not healthy for Chinchillas to digest, but you don't only have to use fleece. You can use particular wood shavings but there are also many toxic kinds out there so make sure you do your research. I have a video on Chinchilla beddings as well. Hope this helped!:)

The Chinchilla Notebook, Thank you for answering my questions! I will watch your safe wheel video and look into some safe wood beddings.

Guyroo 5 My pleasure!:)

Guyroo 5 actually, The Chinchilla Notebook isn’t a professional nor does she know health facts as correct as professionals like the KZfaq channel “Happy Tails”. Carefresh is the best bedding for chinchillas. It is true that Carefresh isn’t too good for chinchillas to digest, but most chinchillas will NOT eat it since it doesn’t taste Goodall as long as they have toys to play with. KZfaq is a great platform to get info from, but make sure that you also get facts from people who actually went to school for this. In no way am I trying to offend The Chinchilla Notebook, but a 12 year old isn’t the best source for important health info.

Alright, first of all yes, I am not a professional and nor have I gone to school. But assuming my age and using your guess to infer that I don't know what I'm talking about is kind of rude. There was a way of getting your point across without guessing my age and bringing it into this. (you are quite off on the age guess, by the way. I mean, I suppose the camera makes me sound like a little kid) :D Secondly, I just researched Carefresh bedding and found that you're right: it is a safe bedding to use for chinchillas. I mistakened it for Kaytee bedding which is bad, and I apologize. Sorry for the mistake! I do have experience with chinchillas and I have my reasons for staying away from any beddings besides fleece because I have bad experiences with past beddings with other chinchillas. For me, all bedding besides fleece and tile scare me because of my experiences with them so naturally the first thought was that it was bad. And I have put nothing of my age or every experience I've had on the internet, either. But I do appreciate that you saw and corrected my mistake (I'm not perfect as everyone can clearly see!) :)

Fee Müller especially since chinchillas are very sensitive animals. They can get depression if they don’t have a chinchilla friends

Blu Murder I don’t have Merlin in the laundry anymore, he has his own apartment now. But even when he lived there, he became accustomed to louder sounds. The dryer and washer were never very noisy anyway though😊💕

I looked it up and it said that some do not like to cuddle but some do so and also u can give them treats but not a lot like one piece every two weeks or something

Slime Queen thanks for your help, but unfortunately my mum said I can’t get one anyway. When we move house, I can get a puppy!

Ear Muffs It depends on the personality some love it

But i its allmost 2 years old

Fran Gaming That’s awesome! So excited for you💕

Good! Chinchillas are meant to be owned in pairs. It can cause depression if you don’t have two.

nah, most of the time they’re around £150 here in the UK

@@rachl13 I seen them in pets at home about 2 years ago for around £40 each

@@rachl13 I got the same cage as her all the accessories and supplies and 2 17week old chinchillas for £300

Well saying that they are the SOFTEST is an opinion, I think you meant that otters have the THICKEST fur. sorry if I sound like a jerk

@@ellieeile your not a jerk thats what I meant they do have the thickest fur in the world but if you touch otter fur it is softer than anything you would ever feel

One

Andrew Whittaker squeak

They can live 20 plus years
