i had a few about 16 years ago and wanted to get another one one day. well i found one on craigslist...why go to a pet shop if i can pick up a pet that somebody else decides they can't have/want anymore.
i don't mind 2nd hand/used/pre-owned/rescue pets. my guinea pigs were from craigslist and they are cute as can be.
and this chinchilla boy...he will "bark" and watch if my kids or my daughter's boyfriend walk by. otherwise he is calm and i even held him for a little bit, but i'll hide him in my room so my boy won't sneak up in the night or 5 am to try to pet him. the previous owner gave me a ball for him to run in and my son wanted him in it. told him to let him get used to us first.
now i have to google chinchillas to refresh what i have forgotten over the years, darn why did i get rid of my book on them:wall:
