My chinchillas outside in a cage
This is just a video of my pet chinchillas Pepper and Lulu. I was cleaning their cage and decided to let them outside. I don’t have any chicken wire or any kind of border so I had to keep them in their cage. D= But they were still happy!

Pet Chinchilla Injured and Wounded in Aspen, Colorado
We had just completed climbing the Maroon Bells (took us almost 11 hours!) and went into Aspen for a late dinner. In front of the Explore Book Store (where they have a great vegetarian bistro on the second floor) I spotted this Chinchilla on the public sidewalk. I suspect it was somebody’s pet that got away and was probably hit by a car. It was still alive but acting a bit strange. The other passersby took it to a nearby pet store for proper care and attention.
Here’s my personal web page about keeping pets in general:

How do I clean the drool off my chinchillas fur?
I just had my chinchillas teeth shortened and his fur is still wet from the drool that he was expelling while his teeth were still long. What do I do to get his fur back to normal? Do I just wait for it to grow back? Do I continue to give him regular baths?
make sure your chin has plenty of dust baths for the next couple of days, if it doesn’t dry get someone to hold your chin and then you need to stand about a metre away and blast the chin with cold air from your hairdryer for a couple of seconds at time to try and get rid of the excess moisture but this is a last resort measure as this is very stressful for your chin..
This is a serious answer, this is something breeders do when the chins get wet and I have done this before because one of my chins managed to get in the kitchen sink!!
