What is safe for my chinchilla to play with?
My chinchilla is often bored I feel and so I want to add toys to his cage. However my mom doesn’t want to spend money on a pet. What are some common household goods that a chinchilla would find entertaining?

No socks. Socks have loose fibers in them that a chin can ingest that will cause a blockage in the intestines. Stay away from material things unless it’s made from fleece.
If you could spend even a couple dollars, big pieces of PVC pipe make wonderful tunnels for your chin. You can even take boxes, cut holes in the end, put the PVC pipe between the two holes and make a fort with a tunnel! They love stuff like that.
Do you have any 2 x 4′s lying around? You could build him some steps, a balance beam, a jungle gym out of them. You could really have fun creating stuff for him to play on. You could also use that PVC pipe again on a 2 x 4 creation.
Other than that, yes, the paper towel rolls and the toilet paper tubes are lots of fun. Try stuffing one full of hay and put a bite sized nonshredded wheat in it. They will dig and tear at it until they find the "prize" in the middle.
I’d like to ask though, if your mom won’t spend any money on a pet – what will you do if your chin needs veterinary attention? Will he just have to suffer because mom feels it’s an expense she doesn’t want? Just something to think about.

- Empty toilet paper/paper towel tubes!
- Paper bags!
- A box!
- A sock!
- A block of wood!
Thats about all I can think of.
Good luck! (:
Wood chew toys are great, but you have to make sure it is SAFE wood for chinchillas
