Chinchillas
Well this page was originaly meant to tell you about "my" chinchillas...but
I no longer have them*sigh* To anyone thinking of getting a chinchilla
I strongly recommend reading up & doing your homework , they are very
loveable and hearty animals but need to be properly cared for.
About my chinchillas..
Tony-(a beige male)-Was my first chinchilla.I
drove 4 hours to get him!I swear he thought he was a dog sometimes...He
LOVED pens..he would carry them around in his mouth like a dog carrying
a bone *L* It was cute.He was the one who taught me about hiding wires
& apple vinager!*LOL*
Damion -(a black
velvet male)-He was born on Dec 7th 1994.I picked him out special
on July 2nd,1995(from Dark Star Chinchilla Ranch in Sonora Calif)Out of
all those lil chinchillas the breeder had I knew when I looked at him he
was the one that I was going to bring home!.....He was my "emotional"
chinchilla,always knew when I was upset and he'd try to make me feel better
*s*He was and still is by far my favorite...*damion died August 4th 98*
He is GREATLY missed.
Chloë -(a standard
grey female)-She was born on May 18th 1995.I got her from a pet
store on March 20th 1996. I only went in to get damion some food and saw
her sad face just staring at me threw her small very cage.The clerk told
me that she was brought in from an abused home and they were trying to
find a loving home for her to go to.I decided that I needed to bring her
home cuz she was in need of some TLC. When I brought her home I was worried
about the two not getting along but to my surprise they were fine right
from the start! :) She is a feisty one...but she has her loveable moments(when
she thinks you have raisens!*L*)
(The First Baby) Spirit -(a
black velvet female)-She was born on October 14th 1996
!She is damion and chloë's baby.She was a BIG SURPRISE!Shes
a cute one,but you have to watch her close-when damion,chloë run around
my room she wants to follow*L*(HUGE HANDFULL!-kinda like having to child
proof your house for a 2 year old*LOL*) She was sold April 7th,97.
(The 2nd set of babies)Akasha-(a black velvet
female) & Nikita-(a standard grey female)-They were born on
June 25th 1997.I had the worst day and came home to find them chattering
away.They are sooo cute!Nikita is the wild one!She's been running around
trying to escape since she was born!Akasha on the other hand is very quiet
and kinda shy.They are still together sturring up trouble at their new
owners house!*L*
(The 3rd set of babies)Dakota-(a standard grey
female) & Lakota-(a standard grey female)-They were born October
20th,97.They were really NOT expected!Im assuming that she "bred back"...But
they were still wanted & loved!!!Lakota died that day *sigh* but Dakota
thrived on and is still a handful!*L*
