My name is Princess Penny(Penelope)!

"Penelope (aka Princess Penny) is an approximately 4 yr old standard gray female chinchilla looking for a forever home that has previous chinchilla experience. She is very sweet and enjoys head pets and chin scritches once she learns to trust you. Until then she can be a bit guarded and moody. As some chins do, she will sometimes display a bit of sassy attitude but she is also very treat motivated, so that can be the gateway to her heart, lol.  She has developed a bad habit of fur biting in the last year- as you can see on her back in some of her photos. Her previous owner’s vet cleared her of any possible related health issues and felt it was Penny’s response to stress. She will absolutely need a large enclosure like a Midwest DOUBLE Critter Nation/Ferret Nation cage or something similar in dimensions (24”D x 36”W x 63”H) because smaller cages really do stress her out! So proof of an adequately sized cage will be necessary for adoption approval. She loves to run on her 15” Chin Spin wheel and it’s made a huge difference in her being more relaxed in her foster home, but she didn’t seem to know what to do with an Exotic Nutrition 14” Treadmill Wheel at all and just ignored it for weeks, lol. She adores chewing up applewood sticks, rolling in her dust bath 3 times each week and climbing all over you in a fenced-in play area several times a week. If you think Penelope might be the perfect match for your family please fill out our adoption application at FurAngelsAS.org.  Her adoption fee is $125.
