Hi. My chinchilla is 5 years old. I am new to this forum. I just joined to ask some questions but then I uploaded pictures, then started to read this stuff and I think I got addicted. 
I think I am the only person from Latvia who has joined this forum.
I buy "VITAKRAFT - Pellets" and "VITAKRAFT - Emotion beauty" food for my chin.
My chinchilla is healthy, not too thin or fat, happy, a bit lonely. I would love to take him to a chinchilla farm on breeding or just meet other chinchillas but I don't have any chinchilla farms in my country.
I give him fruit and plants(roses, grass, leaves and those yellow flowers with milk..). Is that bad? My mom says that I am crazy that fruit are is risky. I sometimes give him bananas and apples. Rarely but often in summer some strawberry and my chinchilla LOVES cherry. He goes crazy, he would do anything for cherry. But I never heard that chinchillas can eat cherry.... Can't they? Also, I once gave him a very small piece of chocolate. He loved it and NOTHING happened. He lives! He loves nuts and raisins of course and he hates candy from pet store ( special candy for chinchillas with strawberry and yoghurt flavor). I want him to taste everything he can taste.
Any ideas and advices?

He is friendly and cute but is there an option?
