Tons of people have posted pictures of their pets in their blogs. I decided it was time to do the same. My four chinchillas - Astro, George, Daisy and Molly - are now in my photo album.

Are they rats? No, they are South American rodents with extremely soft fur and fluffy tails.

Can I make slippers out of them? Well... fur farms do exist, but you can't have mine. And why would you want to hurt these cute and cuddly animals anyway?

I've had chinchillas since college and now I'm adicted.

Tracy,
I have to admit I'd never seen chinchillas except in the form of a coat. They are very cute-- much cuter than mice, which tend to look like rats. Good thing they've got bushy squirrel tails!!
Some day I will see them in person, not on your computer desktop.

They look yum-my! They can kibble in my bits anytime! Finger licking good! I bet they taste like chicken! I can't take it! I am digging out from under the fence right now--

Hey Tracy: Thanks for the weather info. We just had a real nice shower in Irving and now the temp is cooler. I love the pics of the chinchillas. They are so cute. They look like they would be the perfect pets for an apartment. Glad that you are in Texas now and with Fox4.
