General Chat / Chinchilla kisses
« on: February 27, 2012, 08:56:03 AM »
This is my first post, but I knew this is where I could talk to folks that would appreciate this. Back in November, we got 3 chincillas that we adopted from a nice guy I met at work. His chincillas had become overcrowded, and were fighting, so he needed some new forever homes. Unfortunately, my little buddy Scrappy died not long after we got him, and we never could find any reason for it. Very heartbreaking. Now we still have Warbler and Gizmo. They were given attention, but their move to my home was a huge change for them, and we have been taming them all this time. They are VERY sweet, but are not to the point that they will volunteer to be held. If this is as tame as they get, we are still crazy about them, but this morning Gizmo (my little buddy) came to the front of the cage while I was giving them new food. They both always come over to see what I am bringing, and will let me pet them. They also play with my hands and tug on my clothes playfully. ANYWAY, this morning I stuck my face in the door since they were extra friendly, to see what they would think. Gizmo came right over and let me kiss him on the head, and then gave me kisses like it was the most normal thing in the world. Love this little guy!!!
