About chinchilla

We have a hetero beige female chinchilla who's looking for her new home. She came to NWI just a bit ago, and is now ready to leave and go to a family of her own. Her name is Cricket! Cricket was born 3/14/2016, which means she's just recently turned four years old! Her color is called hetero beige, which is the darker of the two beige colors in chinchillas. The pictures aren't the greatest representation of her color, she looks a bit more beige-y in person. Cricket is, like her name, energetic! She does ok with handling, though she would much prefer to be out and having playtime. Of course, right, cause that's more fun. While she has never bitten, she has sprayed on occasion, when she felt threatened. Here's what one of our volunteers has to say about her: 'She is skittish but sweet. Energetic and not a huge fan of being held.' This chinchilla is currently caged alone. However, if you interested in pairing her up with your, or one of our, chinchillas, let us know and we'll see what we can do. This chinchilla will come with some food to start you out (Tradition pellets), a goodie bag of chews/treats, and a printed out version of our care packet. He will also come with a lifetime of help and support, should you ever need it. If more supplies are needed, we also sell a variety of chinchilla supplies, from cages to hidey houses to hammocks and everything in between. Regardless of past chinchilla experience, all potential homes will be asked to read our chinchilla care packet and fill out our adoption application/chinchilla questionnaire. If you are unwilling to do this, please do not waste our time or yours. No chinchilla will go to a new home without an adoption application being filled out - no exceptions. This chinchilla is located in Hammond, Indiana (zip code 46324). Sorry, we do not ship. The adoption fee for Cricket is $100 For more info and pictures, visit our website - http://www.nwichinchillas.com and check out the various Available Chinchillas pages If you are interested in this chinchilla, or have any questions, please let us know. We also do have other chinchillas and other small animals up for adoption as well. You can email us at [email protected] or call 219-789-0026 for more information or if you have any questions. If you call and there is no answer, please leave a message and we will get back to you.
