Hi, my fiance and I are moving from Reston, VA (near DC) to Seattle, WA around mid-July and we need some advice on how to get our pet chinchilla across the country. First of all, we need to figure out the best pet carrier for him, which has enough space and he can't chew through it. Second, we need to know the best/safest method of chinchilla travel. My fiance is opposed to the idea of taking him in the car with us, so we're looking into pet shipping services. Is this a good idea? Has anyone used a service like this? Any horror stories, etc? Any further advice would be wonderful, as this issue has become the most stressful thing about moving.
We just want our chin to be as safe and stress-free as possible throughout this whole ordeal.
