Morticia's Story

Hetero beige female chinchilla -- "Morticia"<br/>Born approx. 12/2023 -- 1.75 years old<br/><br/>**Morticia is not a chin for someone just starting out in chins... unless you really want a hands-off furball**<br/><br/>**Morticia is a fan of spraying. Like, it might as well be a hobby of hers. If you can grab her quick enough, you may not get sprayed... but this is difficult even for me -- 23+ years in -- so beginners beware. She immediately stands up to spray when you reach for her, though she IS fine with you simply opening the cage to fill food and water.**<br/> <br/>**Morticia did have a buddy in the past, so she might do fine with another chin buddy... in case someone wants to pair up this spicy girl**<br/><br/>--not a fan of being handled (even after you have your own golden shower to get to this point)<br/>--squirmy in your arms, keeps moving while being handled<br/>--happy as a clam in her cage, being left alone <br/>--a very look-but-don't-touch pet<br/><br/>Farmhand thoughts: "She's super cute, but NOT a fan of hands coming towards her. Big fan of spraying. Not super energetic, but will be that way in attempt to get away from whatever human is trying to hold her."<br/><br/>Adoption fee -- $75 cash or zelle / $83 card or other electronic payment <br/><br/>Interested in adopting? Fill out an adoption form on our website nwichinchillas.com<br/><br/>All of our chinchillas come with a baggie of food to start you out with as well as a printed out version of our chinchilla care packet.<br/><br/>These chinchillas are located in Wolcott, Indiana (47995 about 30 minutes north of Lafayette, IN.
