So my daughter's ninth birthday was Saturday and all she wanted was a Chinchilla. Her beloved Asian Box Turtle named Franklin had died about a month ago so after much thought, we decided to get one from a breeder in Toledo.
The Chinchilla (Charlie) is GREAT. Very friendly and tame. He's almost two months old so very young.
Bella is NOT happy about this new addition. She has been going NUTS peeing EVERYWHERE. This is NOT a normal thing for her. She occasionally has accidents but this is unreal. She's running around while peeing!!!
We're keeping the Chinchilla in my daughters room (in a safe spot where Bella can't get her) but Bella is going nuts trying to get in the room. We had it gated off but then Bella was "attacking" the gate. We shut the door but then Bella was scratching the door trying to get in. Not to mention barking and growling.
*sighs* Do you guys think she'll get used to it??? I had thought she might act up but this is more then I bargained for!!!
