Ooh, I didn’t realize that’s what chinchillas look like! I was going to guess a quokka, which it turns out is only similar in terms of also being a relatively small furry creature with a fun name 😅
He is from a much different part of the world. These little fellas originate from the Andes Mountains and this is the long-tail variety. His personality is wild! He is extremely expressive, quite smart and loves to play peek-a-boo.
What is this creature, and does he have a name? 👀
He is a Chinchilla and answers to Mr. Moose.
They are a little skittish, will eat anything that is expensive (like furniture) and generate an endless stream of raisins.
He is super fussy about his hair as well. (They take dust baths in only the finest of dusts.)
This guy loves parkour as well. He will sprint around the house bouncing off walls for no reason.

Chinchillas are farmed for fur, unfortunately. 😢
I’m not surprised about the fur farming tbh :/
Their fur is incredibly dense and soft iirc
Also you can’t expose them to water or direct sunlight or they die.
Yeah, sensitive little things they are. My Moose is a happy little critter though.
