We have a black velvet male chinchilla who’s looking for his new home. He came to NWI just a bit ago, and is now ready to leave and go to a family of his own.

He was born around 1/18/2019, making her right around 5 months old. His color is called black velvet ebony, which means he is a dark black color over his back, with a nice white belly. He’s a very slight furchewer, just such a tiny spot you barely notice… but we do, so we mention it.

This boy is very energetic! We like to call him – BOUNCY! He love to parkour off the walls of his cage. Surprisingly, he’s actually not that hard to pick up, though he still retains that baby-energy when you’re holding him. He does settle down a bit, if you can hang onto him for that first little period of time, though he’s not going to be the snuggly type. Sweet boy, but more on the active side. Doesn’t bite.

He would make a great “first chinchilla” for someone who’s never had one before, provided they understand that he is not going to just sit and “chill” with them.

This chinchilla is currently caged alone. However, if you interested in pairing him up with your, or one of our, chinchillas, let us know and we’ll see what we can do.

The adoption fee for this black velvet male chinchilla is $200

We have a medium / dark ebony male chinchilla who’s looking for a home. He came to NWI not long ago, and we have that he was born on 1/22/19, which makes him 5 months old. Great time to take him home!

This male is a medium / dark ebony. This means that he is a charcoal grey color all over his body, including his belly. He is darker on his back, and lightens up on his side. Very pretty color gradient.

This boy can be a little bit talkative when you go to reach for him, but he’s actually very sweet! He’s not afraid of people and he’s actually relatively easy to scoop up. He can be a little bit jumpy when you’re holding him, and if you catch him off guard, he might flinch a little when you touch him. We’re sure that more handling will help this immensely, he just needs to know what it’s like to have a loving family! He does alright with being handled and petted, though if he had his choice, he’d love to be out and exploring! Since he’s still young, he very well may settle down, and with more handling, he can very well become more comfortable with people. Super sweet boy, very curious. Doesn’t bite.

This chinchilla is a slight furchewer. You can see some patchy fur on his hips. This isn’t a health problem, but rather, more of a cosmetic thing, similar to us humans chewing on our fingernails. He may stop giving himself his own haircut, or this may continue, but either way, it’s no harm to himself, it just affects how he looks.

He would make a good “first chinchilla” for someone who would like a chinchilla a little more on the active side, but also one that could use a lot of TLC!

This chinchilla is currently caged alone. However, if you interested in pairing him up with your, or one of our, chinchillas, let us know and we’ll see what we can do.

We have a standard grey male chinchilla who’s looking for his new home. He came to NWI not long ago and he is now ready to go to his new home! We have down that he was born on 7/16/2018, which makes him just now 11 months old. Great time to take him home.

This male’s color is called standard grey, which means he is grey over most of his body, except for his belly, which is white.

This boy is very curious and outgoing. He will come right up to the front of the cage to see what you’re doing. He’s super friendly and will put his paws on your hands. Definitely not afraid of people! He’s super easy to scoop up into your arms and he is just a dream to hold and pet! Very very sweet, just want to snuggle him for hours. Nice and fluffy, we just love him. Doesn’t bite.

He would make a great “first chinchilla” for someone who’s never had one before.

This chinchilla is currently caged alone, and we don’t know how he does with others. However, if you interested in pairing him up with your, or one of our, chinchillas, let us know and we’ll see what we can do.

The adoption fee for this standard grey male chinchilla is $100

We have a white ebony mosaic female chinchilla who’s looking for her new home. This female was born on 1/21/2019, which currently makes her just at 5 months old. Great time to take her home!

She’s a white ebony, which means she’s white with usually dark markings. She’s white with some grey shading over much of her body, and she has some black at the base of her tail and on her forearms. She’s also expressing the curly (locken) gene, so she’s got some curl in her tail and a bit on her belly as well! Neat looking girl!

She is very sweet. Not overly active, actually, she’s more of a cautious girl when checking out new places. She does pretty well with being handled and petted though once she gets comfortable, she does move around a bit more. Absolute sweetheart. Doesn’t bite.

This girl would make a great “first chinchilla” for someone who’s never had one.

This chinchilla is currently caged alone. However, if you interested in pairing her up with your, or one of our, chinchillas, let us know and we’ll see what we can do.

The fee for this white ebony mosaic female chinchilla is $250

Please note: this chinchilla is on hold for Michelle B. w/ deposit

We have a standard grey male chinchilla who’s looking for his new home. He came to NWI not long ago and he is now ready to go to his new home! We have down that he was born on 12/20/2018, which makes him just now 5.5 months old. Great time to take him home.

This guy is the best of both worlds – he has some energy, but he’s not bouncing off the walls crazy. Sometimes when you go to pick him up, he likes to play with you and show you how smart he is! He’s definitely more of a chinchilla for an active home, though he can chill as well...at least for short periods of time! Super curious boy, wants to check everything out! This cutie doesn’t bite.

He would make an alright “first chinchilla” for someone who’s never had one before, provided they understand that he is more of an active chinchilla.

This chinchilla is currently caged alone, and we don’t know how he does with others. However, if you interested in pairing him up with your, or one of our, chinchillas, let us know and we’ll see what we can do.
