Chinchillas are becoming increasingly popular as companion animals; they are relatively easy to care for. If your chinchilla is acquired while it is still young, with gentle handling it can become quite tame. In the wild, chinchillas live in and around the Andes Mountains. They come from a very dry habitat where they bathe in volcanic dust. This explains why as pets they need to have dust baths several times a week. Chinchillas become mature between 8 to 12 months and can have a life span from 10 to 15 years.
