Meet Amadeus

Hi, my name is AMADEUS! Here is what would work best for me in my new home:

-Personality: Shy, alert, active
-Can live with kids: Kids can be in my home, however my primary caregiver needs to be an adult and handling with adult supervision until they are better socialized.
-Experienced Chinchilla home: Not required, but preferred. Research prior to adoption on care is required.
-Lifespan: 10+ years
-Can live with other Chinchillas: Yes, with a proper introduction. Males tend to be a little less territorial than the females.
-Bite History: None, but has been known to test nibble.

-Additional information: I come with a nice roomy, well ventilated cage with multiple levels that can be kept cool and dry, and has the right kind of flooring to prevent foot injuries. My diet should consist of high quality pellet food, unlimited grass hay (Timothy/orchard/oat, alfalfa is NOT a grass hay) and a small amount of species appropriate fruit/veggies daily. I will also need dust baths 1-2 times weekly. I've been an only chinchilla up to now, but I did meet the dog in my previous home. Please take great care in attempting to introduce me to other pets.
