My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Standard grey female chinchilla -- "Gizzy the Good Gremlin"
--furchewer--
Born 2011-2013-- 11-13 years old

​PLEASE READ -- Remember how the good gremlin still caused trouble? Yeeeah...that's Gizzy! Gizzy is a nervous chinchilla that is not a fan of being out of her cage. She's not a fan of being caught / picked up. Holy cow can she jump, and she can get out of any playpen / containment you try to put her. Even her cage... leave the door open and turn your back for a moment too long... and she is GONE. Gizzy is easily stressed out, and when she gets out, she is HARD to catch. Gizzy is more of a look-but-don't-touch type chinchilla, who would not appreciate snuggles. We have not had a lot of handling time with her, as that's just not her thing, and anyone looking to adopt a chinchilla that they really want to interact with should really look some of the other furballs we have available, as Gizzy isn't it. We were told that Gizzy likes belly scratches, but we have not been able to really verify this. She has proven to be very flighty and would do best in a low-stress environment, preferably an adult-only-home. Due to her nervous behaviors, we don't think playtime would be "fun" for her.

Adoption fee -- $75 CASH / $83 CARD OR ELECTRONIC PAYMENT
