It is awful to loose a little one ... most of us here have. They just make this special place in your heart that nothing can replace. In time, I hope you will get another little chinchilla, (I could not imagine my life without chinchillas) and he/she, too, will make their own special little spot in your heart.
You will never forget Chewy, but try to keep your mind on all the fun times ... when he made you laugh ... and how good he made you feel.
I strongly believe God has a place in heaven for the precious chinnies and that is where they all go. Chew
is there with my Mocha
and others, who are now where there is no pain, no cages and they can run freely together, playing for all eternity.
Take as much time as you need, but also keep in mind all the love you are missing ...
giving and receiving ... when you do not have a precious little chinchilla of your own.
