My 3 year old cousin is one of the biggest animal lover’s I have ever seen. I am getting a chinchilla next week. I can’t wait to show it to him but is it safe to let him hold it? He is very gentle with animals so I am not worried about him hurting the chinchilla but I was wondering how the chinchilla will be with him?
I understand that the chinchilla is fragile but like I said, my cousin is very gentle. He held a one month old kitten and was very good with it.

I have researched them quite abit and i like them alot, i love animals and chinchillas are just great, i love how they curl up and how soft they are, i plan on getting two as i recken they need a friend and a play mate! However leaflets and books only tell you so much i was wondering if a chinchilla owner could help me out. What are chinchillas like? Are they playful? Can they be aggresive? Are they easy to handle? Will they be frightened by my dog, rabbit or fish? Do they need alot of attention. I’m 15 so i’m mature enough and i don’t want a hyper gurbil i want a chinchilla.
Thanks you’ve all been so helpful, i understand about the ’some like being handles and some don’t thing’, i guess they’re a bit like humans, some are shy, when i go to the pets store, and see them, one of them usually goes up to me and sniffs the cage where i am, and i usually attempt to stroke it which i can see it enjoys yet the other usually hangs back at the back of the cage in his bed, still awake just sitting their. Wow have i stressed enough how awesome u guys have been i mean you’ve been so much help. thank you you all deserve a round of applause, this ‘best answer’ buisness is gonna be pretty darn tricky. Again can i say Thank you!
