From time to time, we have some friend giving up their chins for adoption….r u looking for a chinchilla friend to adopt?
Please take the time to fill out this chin questionaire so we can get an idea of your chin experience and knowledge. Our intention is to find the most caring homes for a few of our chins. We will ask an adoption fee to ensure a serious home. I reserve the right to cancel any adoption up until the chin has been picked up or delivered.
