I have heard nothing but wonderful things about chinchillas as pets. They are very clean animals, and if they are bought young are not agressive. My babies play with my hamsters when they are in the exercise ball all the time and no biggie. And at least they aren't like a ferret where they will get out all of the time and make huge messes and lots of really obnoxious noise. (no offense to anyone who has one, but my friend's drove me crazy!) Of all the other pets to get, its probably one of the best. |
