My roomate had a Chinchilla named rasinette, and she had to buy this Huge expensive cage! It didnt like to be held, but love to escape and shit everywhere. Anyway her boyfriend thought it would be cute to feed rasinette some real rasinettes, and it died! She only had it maybe 6 months, but I think hamsters are better pets:)and cheaper to take care of.

I can tell you that chocolate is deadly to most animals. Wasn't a good idea to feed it chocolate!

Basically, its a fur slipper that if the temperature diet and water are not 100% perfect at all times, and they dont have powdered pumice to bathe it, it will die.

its like having an expensive baby that is allergic to everything. id rather have a kid.

Yeah, my old roomie had one. I tried to warn her that I'd heard they were a HUGE pain in the ass to take care of. She said she didn't care. Six months later, she was miserable. She loved the damn thing, but she had to invest SO much time & money to take care of it that it almost was like she had an infant. I think it lived for about 5 years.

Remember Bernard Goetz, the vigilante who shot all those guys who tried to mug him on the New York subway? He had a pet chinchilla. He said he liked them because they were nice but vicious when provoked.

Bernie Goetz... The world might have sympathized if he had known how to keep his damn mouth shut...

Are chinchillas really that vicious? If i was going to import a vicious rodent from south america, i think i would go for the gusto get a pissed off capybara... damn things look like a 4 foot rat with hooves. Cute guys, but i saw one yawn at a zoo and i thinki would rather get mauled by a pit bull...
