Dumpling

Dumpling is a social girl looking for an experienced home, or at least one willing to do a lot of research first! Chins are adorable and unique little critters that can make great companions for someone with the right expectations. There are important things to consider before adopting a chinchilla as they have very specific care requirements- the type of cage, food, bedding, environmental temperatures, handling and so on are not the same as for other small companion animals. If you would like more details on their needs, please reach out and we can provide that info as well as other resources.Dumpling is currently staying with a wonderful foster while she awaits her forever home. Here are some notes from her foster mom:"Dumpling is cute, sweet, gentle, curious and smart - very food motivated and seems trainable. She loves treats, pets, playtime and sitting on my shoulder nuzzling my ear and patting my cheeks and hair with her soft paws. She is moody, sometimes wants to be left alone and pushes my hand away. I clean her cage in the morning and it stays clean all day. She eats very little. She is good at communicating her wants. Most days we spend about 30min in her play area. When she is done she hops into her carrier and waits to go back to her cage. It took her a long time to trust me and even longer to like me but she made it easy because she is clear about what she likes. She needs someone soft, patient and willing to listen to her."Chins can live 15-20+ years so be prepared for a commitment! They are not for everyone, but for the right person they are wonderful. And could they be any cuter? Primary Color: Grey Secondary Color: Agouti Weight: 0.737kg Age: 3yrs 8mths 1wks
