Listing Description
Chalupa was given to me by my daughter becasue her dog was obsecces with it and was stressing out the chinchilla. It is not the type of pet I really would have chose but I took her to give her the care she deserved. I am near 70 and they can live to be 20 years old and the upkeep of cleaning a cage daily is getting to be a bit much for me as I also have a husband, dog and parrot. She has her daily routine with me and comes to the top shelf for her daily treat. We greet each other with nose bumps and she loves scratches under her chin and behind her ears, loves her ears rubbed as well as between her ears. I preen her like a mother monkey preens her baby (this is how we gained trust with each other). The pet shop said she was born aprox Mid October of 2022 but did not provide an exact date. She does not willing come into your hands but I can pick her up and she will cuddle on my chest. I'm sure with time, she will bond with you too if you take it slowly.
