She had a slight name change, I have a crazy Aunt Lilah so couldn't call her that!

So Delilah it is:D She is settling in wonderfully! She is just so darn cute and funny! She loves scritches and being pet, just don't pick her up, lol. I can respect that!
Everyone should have a Chinchilla, they are the best!

In general, chins aren't big on being held. But they do love their pets!

She is precious, what a face! She looks so happy.

If she starts to chew on that plastic wheel and house, remove them right away. I have had 2 chinchillas die from plastic ingestion (plastic cat carrier), so it is a real risk. There are sites that teach you how to make a metal wheel for like $20 or buy a metal one. I would buy her a pine house, they have them at some pet stores or you can make one with pine. If she doesn't eat it, then you are ok, but you are always taking a small risk. Just an FYI!

Thanks! I know, I need to remove all the plastic in her cage, she came with the cage and all that stuff, has lived in there for 3 years. I am going to order a Chin Surfer wheel but it is expensive, lol, some Flat top perches from Danita to get rid of the plastic ledges she has in there and I already ordered a fleece set for the cage- a fleece liner, hidey hut and fleece tube and hammock.
I am slowly changing everything for her, within 2 weeks she should be decked out in newly designed cage :)
